constance blaize 25pt

[Lagrider]

I've always liked the idea of infantry casters but the creation of constance seemed like a slap in the face to cygnar whose infantry has always been a little lackluster. Regardless I thought I'd try my hand at a list for her. It seems to me that she would only really be viable at lower point values because of her limited focus and support spells so here's my 25pt list:

blaize -6
ironclad 7
squire 2

max booms 9

sb+ua 8

junior 3
murdoc 2


The idea is that the boomies will be faction in order to benefit from transference and blaizes feat while also having an assault order. I would keep the stormblades hidden behind the boomies until after the booms had taken a charge or with their 11" range under crusaders call charged an enemy. They could then support with ranged attacks form assault into melee or take out high priority targets with a charge.

Either way this list seems to offer a pretty tough nut to crack at the 25 pt level while keeping a decent amount of offense.

Thoughts?

No one able to offer me any advice? Never played blaize before.

I've never played Blaize before, but I'll give it a go:

I honestly think this list would be better as a merc list, at least for your chose tactic. Replace Stormblades with Forgeguard, replace Murdochand Squire with Wyshnalyrr and Rhupert. The Ironclad can be replaced with a Nomad. That'd leave you with 4 points, which can upgrade the jack or get a couple good solos.

In Cygnar, I think i'd try to go with just faction units. If you lose Murdoch, your feat becomes a non-factor. I'd keep the Stormblades, swap the Boomies for Stormguard (good threat with Crusaders Call) and swap Murdoch with any 2 pt solo you like (I'd go GMCA). I'd also probably swap Squire for Wyshnalyrr (free upkeep is boss with Transference).
