With the MkII beta for Hordes being only weeks away (24th of November). What are you looking forward to fielding (and not regreting it) in MkII.

Feel free to build a hypothetical list and see if it's viable in three weeks.

Morvahna: Perhaps she'll not be so turned off by casters that can turn off upkeeps, maybe she'll get a proper Feat too.
Argus: I was so looking forward to these when Hordes came out, such a waste of a good sculpt.
Ravagers: Never worked well for me.

So my list so far (points are pure speculation based upon current abilities and MkII style points values.) based upon models I own is:

Morvahna (-6)
Argus (3)
Argus (3)
Woldwatcher (5)
Tharn Ravagers [min] (5)
Wolves of Orboros [min + UA] (4+2)
Reeves of Orboros [min] (6)
War Wolf (1)

I hate the champion sculpts. So I'd like to see other infantry for trolls get a bit better, especially Kriel Warriors and Scattergunners. I'd like basic Doomie to be a bit better too.
I think the beasts are mostly fine, though.

I would like to see more viable feats for pmorg and kromac, right now they do nothing vs warmachine. maybe groundwork for pmorg also, I am also interested to see if warlocks get free beast points and how the points changes for beasts work out. I really hope they do something for the farrow brigands.

What about Boomhowler? He works for Trolls now. I wish he was getting a re-sculpt, I'd be straight in there.

I just want eBaldur finally...Here's to hoping for a half dwarf/half construct warcaster!

Heh.

I don't know who qualifies for epics from the other factions.

Trolls...Borka from following Madrak everywhere?

Skorne...Xerxis and Makeda?

Legion...Saeryn? (I would so hate Saeryn if she went epic)

I'd like them to announce that Mk2 was just an elaborate, cruel joke.

Failing that, I'd like them to at least not change Circle's playstyle and to not take away their signature abilities like teleportation and creating terrain.

I want a fishman or Gator warlock.

Then I can run Bog Trogs and Gatormen, with Wrong Eye and SnapJaw.

None of the Faction Locks make a good theme with those, IMO.
