I want a small skirmish Khador force of the following-
-two of the plastic Khador Warjack models(which ones should I build from the options?)
-warcaster who is good for a beginner(if that is logical)
-a unit of troops

I know there are many different configurations that fit the above, but I welcome any and all preferences and ideas. After just getting the rule book today(which is fantastic!), I am not sure where to start as far as minis go.

Suggestions anyone?

i would say:

Butcher
Juggernaut
Destroyer
Ironfang Pikemen (6)

this gives you a good backbone to start Khador at 15 points. play it up and learn from it. if you have some converting skills, i would model the jugger with an extended handle and paint a 09 on it somewhere, if you wanna run beast 09 down the road, who is one of our best jacks.

The Widowmakers look interesting to me- what are your thoughts on them?

Well if your looking at a 15 point list to start try this.

Prime butcher +6
War dog - 1
Beast 09 - 11
Doom Reaver unit - 6
Eiryss - 3

This comes to 15 points.
Nice and easy to use and quite fluffy also.
Butcher is a great caster and hits like 4 ton of bricks and is very forgiving to use.
On butchers feat turn Butcher/Doom reavers have 5 damage dice each.
Hope this helps you.

Oh as for widowmakers there a good unit and a must in bigger games like 25/35
but for now in 15 you dont need the shooting as there not powerfull enought to kill anything
big and nasty there just for crowd control.

I think starting with a battlebox-setup might be advisable. Take a jugger and a destroyerand add a caster. I think sorcha or vlad would be most beginnerfriendly, but butcher could work.

For troops the Iron fang are solid, but maybe a few solo's would be better, like a manhunter (or 2) and Eirys (iff you don't mind mercs).

widowmakers are gold. i really REALLY like them, they are basiclly an autoinclude in all my 25+ point lists, and they are in a few of my 15 pointers as well.

doom reavers take a bit of finesse to use. i think you should get a bit more of a grasp on the game before you rock the naked dudes. immune to spells is great and killers and HtH is also groovy, but being shot up on the way in will screw then hard.

Hi
I know its bit high-jacking but its better than make new thread for same question.
I'm trying to start WM as Khador.

I've decided to use
"Khador Karchev the Terrible"
But I cant decide other warjack for 15pts.
Plastic-Jack are looks awsome and I love to change fitting.
So 2 Pla-Jacks for start?

You should probably start your own thread. Karchev is a bit different from Butcher/Sorscha.

Ironfang Pikemen..

Enough Said, This is the core staple of any Khadorian contingent. I personaly use these guys in every list i have built. They are fast, durable, and will be a great core to your army.
