    35pt Skorne list-Fatman is a comin

    First just let me say thank you for everyone who has given me some amazing advice and Tips over the past week (especially Falkman). I felt great about a 15pt list they lots of people gave me ideas for and so I decided to move higher and build a 35pt list that I am feeling very happy with. I havent tried it but I have it ordered now and I am just waiting for the pieces. So thank you again and I look forward to your insight.

    Rasheth-tier 4

    BronzeBack Titan (10)

    Titan Gladiator (8)

    Titan Gladiator (8)

    Pain Giver Beast Handlers min (2)

    Gatermen Posse Min (6)

    Paingiver Task Master (2)

    Agonizer (2)

    Agonizer (2)

    Feralgeist (1)

    Feralgeist (1)

    Swamp Gobber Bellow Crew (1)

    Total-43(-3 for tier and +5 for caster points) so 40





    This is what I plan on running however I may trade out a Titan Gladiator and 1 Feralgesit for Ironback Spitter (Anyone have opinions on the swap? I am thinking of doing this to help with mass infantry). I was also wondering if anyone knew the rules for the Fealgesit, I know how he works but I was wondering can a Feralgesit enter the body of a destroyed unit that another Feralgeist had possessed? I know this list is probably pretty common but our heavies are quite limited :P

    actually, the only way to get an Iron back spitter is through the lesser warlock, Wrongeye and snapjaw. the catch is that he's a little squishy to run two beasts.

    that's why I suggested you try blindwater(minions faction) in that PM.

    I think the list looks good, very similar to my Rasheth T4. However I would remove the three 1 pt solos and use those points to max out the gatorman unit.

    @darwin

    I saw snapjaw and wrongeye however the only reason I wanted ironback was to deal with infantry and those 2 just dont seem as adept at it as ironback was. However I didnt reallize that i need a minion caster for him, so i will scrap that all together.

    @falkman
    The reason I chose those 3 was more for a defensive persepective. The feralgeist would be channelers and a nuisance bringing back my beast while that lowly bellow crew was my cover. Do you think that adding 3 more gator posse would be more effective? I am thinking of taking that 1 point bellow crew anyway and using him to turn a gladiator into a sentry.

    I think using the ghosts for channeling is a real neat ability, but I just realised that they are not allowed in his tier list. The only solos he can take are Agonizers and Paingiver task masters. So they have to go anyway.
    If you upgrade the posse you'll only get two more guys (not three) but I definitely think it's worth it. They hit pretty hard with the task master along, and with Carnivore + their own re-roll on attack dice they're very accurate against living things as well. Not to mention that they are ARM 18 in combat so can take a few hits. They're also great to channel spells through since they won't die of it right away.
    I think turning one of the Gladiators into a Sentry is a great idea (with Carnivore the Sentry can hit things, which is his only weakness normally), but to me the full gatorman unit is such a staple in a Rasheth list that I wouldn't reduce it for that. Either go with a Bronzeback and two Gladiators or take Sentry + Cannoneer + Gladiator. That's my opinion of it at least.
    With his feat and/or Blood mark you generally don't need the Bronzeback for killing, a Gladiator or Sentry will do more than enough damage to kill anything you want dead.

    Thank you Falkman. I feel really stupid not realize those ruined my tier list :P

    I am going to try the full gators with 2 gladiators. I may try the sentry gladiator and cannon, however i feel that the bronzeback may also be a staple so I want to give him a try Thank you so much for your advice.
