    Default Kallus 35pts

    Hey eveyone I have been mulling over kallus allot lately. I can't seem to make a 35 pt list I like with him. I struggle to fit 3 heavies at 35 which is my staple at 50. I can't seem to fit 2 units in a balanced manner. I want to give
    Farlior some table time so he is a must. I kind if feel the bolt thrower is out of place at 35pts. I just dont know what feels right.
    I have a list below as a point of reference. please help me fix this conundrum. Feel free to fix my list our post your own

    Army Name: Wrath of Everblight
    Legion of Everblight
    35+5 points, 22 models

    Kallus, Wrath of Everblight +5 points
    * Nephilim Bolt Thrower 6 points
    * Ravagore 10 points
    * Scythean 9 points
    * Shredder 2 points

    10 Blighted Legionnaires 6 points
    * Captian Farilor & Standard 3 points
    2x Shepherd 1 point each
    1 Spell Martyr 1 point
    Swamp Gobber Bellows Crew 1 point

    On a scale of 1 to Immovable how stuck on Farilor are you? If you're willing to drop him I'd say do so, drop the Bolt Thrower, upgrade the Scythean to a second Ravagore, and add a unit of Warmongers, Max Swordsmen, or imo Min Swordsmen with UA. Steps up the feat, your ranged game, and your melee game. With the beast adjustment you could also change your solos up a bit depending on playstyle and how much you feel you need to camp.

    *Ravagore
    *Ravagore
    *Shredder
    Max Legionnaires
    (8 points of unit)
    Gobbers
    (Combo of Forsaken/Shepherds/Martyrs)

    In your original list you had the obvious dead points in the NBT, which you knew, but that's not enough for a real unit. The only selection you can drop and still have a solid line up is Farilor, who imo is rarely worth his points.

    Its true the nbt is my dead weight. I really want farilor to stay. I need table time with him becuse they are the focus of my next article. If I did drop him what unit would you recommend at 8 pts. I really love hex hunters

    I'd go with the following

    kallus
    ravagore
    ravagore
    shredder
    max legio
    farilor
    min HH
    bayal
    spell martyr/gobbers/shepperd

    the last point is up to taste, personally i'd go for the spell martyr but in my meta there aren't many ranged threats and i don't think that a shepperd is really needed with this line up

    I find that b/c he has the health regain he can go beast light and be just fine, this is the list I like running at 35

    Kallus+5
    Rava -10
    Shredder -2
    Max lego's + UA -9
    Max swordsman -11
    Black frost shard -5
    Max pot -3

    I find this list every fun to play and gets the most from K's abilities and the lack of beasts is helped by the bfs giving kiss to an enemy war noun.

    The fact that the rava can become pop 20s with kiss + Ignite, making him a deadly target late game. And don't forget pow13s from the swordsman can take down a heavy every easily leaving more models to take on other priorities.

    Also using Eruption on a Lego to make a cloud to block Los/make a harrier for solo hunting, or better yet a stinger to for a quick poke at a heavy with +4 dmg and 4d6 dmg from a "free" model is sweet

    I love HH too, but the list needs more stopping power and Ignited Swordsmen stop lots of things.

    well, my list did well for me, ignited HH killed things in melee fine enough, bayal helps against hard targets too, the legios did well in being hard as steel with farilor working fine as CMA focus, the ravagores hit fairly hard under dark guidance (as does about all the rest tbh) i've not tried it against lists with lots of heavy armor but it's not that what the list shines against and i would use the alternate list if i were to face a xersis brick or similar in a tourney, a thing i think i'll try soon with kallus is the angelius, under dark guidance it should be able to munch a lot of infantry, here is what i'm thinking on trying

    kallus
    angelius
    ravagore
    shredder
    min swordsmen+UA
    legios full+UA
    shepperd
    shepperd

    I've been having fun with a Tier 4 Theme list for Kallus lately...

    Kallus
    Angelius
    Seraph
    Shredder

    6 Swordsmen
    6 Swordsmen
    6 Grotesques
    10 Legionnaires + Farilor and Standard Bearer

    I like Ignite on the Grotesques. P+S 14 with Dark Guidance + Gang is pretty good. Ignite is just plain good on any of the units, really.

    Yea ive been thinking about doin a Spd 5 brick, but can't really come to terms with buying the grotesques just for that. If they were Spd 6 I would hands down .... But of course I would have alrdy have them :-/

    Yeah. If only Rhyas had Ignite...or if Kallus had Dash...yikes...Dash on Kallus? Dead sexy.
