eSkarre 50p with Kraken

[Khaunshar]

Hi there,

My first attempt at incorporating the Kraken into my eSkarre playstyle. Took quite a bit of shifting around pts, and may be a bit too support-heavy.

Skarre, Queen of the Broken Coast (*6pts)
* Kraken (19pts)
* Reaper (7pts)
* Skarlock Thrall (2pts)
Bile Thralls (Leader and 5 Grunts) (5pts)
Necrosurgeon & 3 Stitch Thralls (2pts)
Satyxis Raiders (Leader and 9 Grunts) (8pts)
* Satyxis Raider Sea Witch (2pts)
The Withershadow Combine (5pts)
Ragman (2pts)
Satyxis Raider Captain (2pts)
Warwitch Siren (2pts)

Reaper + WSC + Warwitch Siren for the obvious secondary threat, the Ragman to utilize the massive base size of the Kraken and because I lack any kind of solution for ARM 22+ stuff on the other side. The Necrosurgeon is the usual "keep Skarre alive" stuff.

Primarily I already miss Bane Knights just looking at the list, and the Deathjack instead of the WSC/Reaper combo might be an idea for more brute force. However, Drag has won me games before ...

Looks fine to me.


Just remember eSkarre's ult was errata'd to not affect huge bases. Can't target your or your opponent's Colossal with it. So don't bank anything on that.

First two games were resounding victories. I replaced the Necrosurgeon and Reaper with Malice, which works even better.

This list really shines vs. other colossals (backlash!) while the Kraken just decimates pretty much anything with the Ragman as backup. Unlike many cryx lists, this one doesnt even suffer much against Legion, due to the huge threat of the kraken, and the fact that Satyxis are about the worst thing that can happen to an army without knockdown protection

Of course, its eSkarre, and as such the winning part is probably skewed in my favor anyway, but this really does come together much better than I thought.

Interesting list. I just might try this list out myself.
