Two 50 Point EHaley lists

[blacksword21]

I have come up with two different variations on a eHaley list that I am working on and I was wondering which one you all thought was more competitive. Thanks in advance.

List 1:
Major Victoria Haley - +5
- Squire - 2
- Thorn - 8
- Avenger - 9
Arcane Tempest Gun Mages - 6
- Officer - 2
- Defender - 9
Max Steelhead Halberdiers - 6
Max Horgenhold Forge Guard - 8
Journeyman Warcaster - 3
Trencher Master Gunner - 2

List 2:
Major Victoria Haley - +5
- Squire - 2
- Thorn - 8
- Centurion - 9
Arcane Tempest Gun Mages - 6
- Officer - 2
- Avenger - 9
Max Sword Knights - 6
Max Horgenhold Forge Guard - 8
Journeyman Warcaster - 3
Trencher Master Gunner - 2

Since you're running SK in your secondnd list, definitely get Runewood. He'll help them a lot. I don't see the purpose for the trencher master gunner so maybe you can put in the SKUA instead (same cost). Possibly switch out the Merc models for another lancer (Haley will be fine with 3 jacks) to run with the sword knights to benefit from flank. You theoretically could use the centurion for the benefit, but it is far too slow of a model to make use of the flank ability. I do want to try it though, since Haley can move models (telekenesis). Runewood will cost 3, but you'll get the needed points from switching to a lancer by replacing the merc models.

Lists are good but you lack pathfinder, I think the second list is better than first, 'cause a bonded melee heavy jack is a good assassination vector with her. Try to swap the centurion with an Ironclad + Rhuper Carvolo.

I usually run my eHaley 50pts lists with only two units, so if you want to exchange SK with Rhupert and Black 13th you can do the job well (remember in SR time is important and spamming troops around increase your turn timing.)

Thank you all for the advice. To be honest I didn't even think about turn time limits, so I think you are right about trimming down to two units. Here is the list I came up with after thinking about what you all said:

Major Victoria Haley - +5
- Squire - 2
- Thorn - 8
- Stormclad (bonded) - 10
Max Horgenhold Forge Guard - 8
Arcane Tempest Gun Mages - 6
- Officer - 2
- Avenger - 9
Eiryss, Mage Hunter of Ios - 3
Journeyman Warcaster - 3
Rhupert Carvolo, Piper of Ord - 2
Trencher Master Gunner - 2

I decided on Eiryss over the Black 13th because if I take this list to a two list tournament my secondary list is a General Adept Nemo list with him using the Black 13th. The purpose of the Trencher Master Gunner is to provide a boost to the RAT of the Avenger and it could also help to keep my troops safe from blast damage from the Avenger's shots. I figure the Avenger's knockdown coupled with Eiryss' disruptor bolt and the extra threat range given to the Stormclad by Haley (16" if I did my math right), could offer a fairly potent assassination vector to the list.
