New to Warmachines Looking for advice on my first 15pt menoth list

[Riozaki]

This is my first attempt at a 15pt Menoth list, any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated.

Hierarch Serverius (+6)

Covenant of menoth (2pts)

choir, 3 grunts (2pts)

Revenger (6pts)

Crusader (5pts)

Exemplar Bastion (5pts)

Wrack (1pts)


I realize that this list is ultra melee heavy, and so I may adjust a unit or two or create a second ranged list after work today. The idea was to have a support type build to buff the warjacks. I would like to keep an arc node if possible, mainly because I can channel severius abilities through him so severius can stay pretty far back.

Thank you for your time and input.

i'ld probably go for something like this


Army Name: servious 15
Protectorate of Menoth
15+6 points, 14 models

Hierarch Severius +6 points
* Blessing of Vengeance 7 points
* Crusader 6 points

4 Choir of Menoth 2 points
6 Exemplar Errants 5 points
Vassal Mechanik 1 point

Interesting..... I am guessing the Errants over the Bastion because they are ranged correct? I could fit a wrack in that list I believe (I think everything you mention is in his tier so the crusader would only be 5 points). The Blessing has been on my mind, I wasn' sure if I wanted to use an extra point for him.

Thank you for your advice and I will change my list layout to look like that next time.

if you have the point get the blessing (e.servious is able to do his shooting attack thru him and bushwack can get it out of trouble) also with e.servious spell awareness errants could shoot your opponents warcaster

if you go for his tier list swap out the mechanic and get the covenenet. that way the errants can shoot flaming missilies at the enemy warcastersetting him on fire using awarenes. also u get +1 on your starting roll. i'ld probably go 2nd just to get the 10" deployment + 16" for the errants

also with e.servious spell awareness errants could shoot your opponents warcaster

Awareness only affect Severius' battlegroup, so it doesn't work on Errants.

I was looking at that last night, so errants wouldnt really benefit me as much (maybe for shooty troops go with deliverers). I Since awareness is a battlegroup ability I can see me benefiting greatly from shooty warjacks and have hard to kill troops like bastion. Thx for the idea's guys. I will post a modified list this afternoon once I get some rest

my mistake throw a reckoner/vanquisher in there with a vassal problem solved
