25p Highlander Menoth

[Shan1ty]

Im just starting to play warmachine with my buddy, i will be going menoth, he will go for skorne i think. List i have been thinking about is:

Vindictus
Vanquisher
Revenger
Zealots (5+ Leader)
-Monolith
Max Cinerators
Paladin
=24/25p

What do you think? Tips? This is just basicly a shopping list so huge changes can be made.

There are a lot of different ways different people use which are "highlander" but I do not know of any that allow you to take more than one unit. So before we give you any advice it would probably be worth it if you checked the rules for highlander wherever you will be playing it.

I will add though outside of highlander that when I first looked at Vindictus my thoughts were that in a faction with a lot of 'jack support and sacrificial lamb he'd make a good caster to take a bunch of jacks with but the best I've seen him played was with only one jack, troop spam taking advantage of true path, with defenders ward on Vindictus in the middle of a max unit of zealots in a control zone.

Oh yea,
Atleast one but not more than two of each:
*Solo
*Heavy Jack
*Light Jack
*Unit

No doubles, no characters

Zealots are the obvious choice. I would not recommend Cinerators, normally with Vindictus I'd recommend knights exemplar spam and the knights exemplar Seneshals but I'm not sure it works when you can only take one unit, maybe the Bastions. I'm not a fan of the Vanquisher with Vindictus, he doesn't need more infantry killing he needs something that can take out a heavy jack/beast and the Vanquisher is not a jack designed for that, especially without the choir. I'd be tempted to have Vindictus cast defenders ward on himself and get forward with the zealots. That means he's going to want to give out a minimum amount of focus so if you are going to do that then you should be looking at only one jack. The reckoner is a good choice for its versatility. Or you could take two jacks and the choir as your second unit and wracks or a reclaimer. Vindictus generally doesn't need an arc node either as he will be forward.
