The Press Gangers ran with Kaelyss, Manticore, Griffon, Chimera. Would you recommend something different.

The new NQ answers your question. I'll check it latter today but it's basically:

Army: NQ ROS Battlebox
Type: Duel (1 caster, 15pts)
Points: 13
Garryth, Blade of Retribution (*5pts)
* Chimera (6pts)
* Griffon (4pts)
* Manticore (8pts)

That was just for a Garryth escalation build.

Honestly Kaelyssa does end up being a solid jack caster, but Witch Hound can be a bit wonky for a Battlebox fight.

The standard array of Manticore, Griffon, Chimera is fine if a bit light for my tastes and like most battleboxes theres a cheap heavy, a light arc node, and a somewhat caster dependent light jack.

The sink.

What the press gangers ran with looks pretty good. I'd prefer a Pheonix to a Manticore, but it costs more points (one more I think, making the box 16 points).

2 Phoenixes marshaled by a Scyir.

Or alternatively...

4 Gorgons. With ...umm... Vyros, I guess.

Box would be 15 points with a Phoenix.

I think the Garreth one or one with Rahn would look to be more interesting to play.

The default battlebox is fine, imo.
