Hey, I got the Khador/ Menoth battle box with a friend, and a few units. i now have a 30 pt army. im new to the game, any suggestions?
List so far:
Sorscha
Juggernaut
Demolisher
5 Man-o-war Shocktroopers
6 winterguard
Grey Ternion

do you mean destroyer and not demolisher? considering the demolisher isnt released yet. if so your list is workable.

Get Joe, UA etc. for the Winter Guard, look at Manhunters or Widowmakers... HAVE FUN! What points level is your goal?

I have now,
pSorscha
Juggy
Dest
Kodiak (haven't played)
Widowmakers, and Marksman
Manhunter, and female variant, and Yuri
and 5 new Shocktroopers haven't added up all the pts yet... we have like 4 other caster's that we haven't played yet too. We just got eSorscha for the cards, and the rock she is on, to make a convert with the new battle box one, as we now have two. (actually 4 Sorscha models) Khador is my wife's army and I mostly play Cygnar.

GOOD LUCK

now running:
sorscha
juggernaut
destroyer
minumum winter guard(point filler)
war dog (point filler)
5 manowar shocktroopers
widowmakers
greylord ternion
I'm prolly gonna get rid of the winter guard for now, til I get enough of them to make the winterguard-deathstar. Also considering kayazy in their place, drop the war dog, and add another greylord unit.

I wouldn't include more than one trio of Greylords. They aren't bad, certainly, but I don't feel they're worth doubling up on.

Assuming you are aiming for 35pts, you still have two left over. You could pick up the full case of Winterguard, but I probably wouldn't mess with them until you also pick up the UA, Rocketeers, etc. Once you can pick them up, I would drop the Greylords and dog for the five points you'll need for a trio of rockets and the UA.

The Kayazy don't get silly until you can toss Iron Flesh on them, which pSorscha cannot do (not sure about eSorscha).

I personally would rather have the dog than the third Rocket. I find it helps make Sorscha even harder to hit.

eSorscha has iron flesh.

I recently picked up more stuff, and I'm now running:
eSorscha (borrowed)
dest
jugg
10 man winterguard+ UA
10 man kayazi + underboss
widowmakers
the goblin mercenary solo (reinholt or something, grants pre measuring on any model the war caster can see, provided he's base to base with the caster) (borrowed
widomaker solo (borrowed)

iron flesh on kayazi is a double sword. I
It makes them harder to kill, but also makes them too slow, and robs them of the ability to charge.

i would get the UAs for the winterguard, then and a unit of iron fangs with the UA and some demo corps. for warjacks i would include a behemoth and some more normal standard jacks

i have

Sorscha
juggernaut
destroyer
MAN-O-WAR demolishers
MAN-O-WAR shocktroopers
Iron fang pikemen with UA
and getting some widowmakers and a behemoth

GOOD LUCK

You just have to smart about IF on the kayazy. Standard trick is to drop IF at start of turn. Activate kayazy and charge. When fiished activate caster and recast IF on kayazy. It'sa little in convenient, but it can drive your opponent nuts

And the witch + wishnailer means she's still casting it for the same cost as upkeeping it.

Hey. Stop that. I have enough issues with the Witch as it is without you giving people crazy (good) ideas.
