after some while playing Kaya, I'd like to give a try to eKaya, what are the main changes in gameplay I should pay attention at? what I should field? there are "auto includes"? and what's the basic tactics in playing her?

what I have available:

Warpwolves (all three)
Gorax
Argus
Winter Argus
Scarsfell Griffon

Skinwalkers
Gallows Groves (2)
Shifting Stones
Druid Wylder

Frog Hunter
Nyss Sorceress
Totem Hunter

feel free to suggest models I don't own
but since I have to order stuff online, providing alt suggestions using only stuff I already own will allow me to be able to already play a list .

Warpwolf Stalker is great with eKaya, because it can hit for P+2 20 with Forced Evolution. And, +2 defense on a Def 14 Warbeast means opponents will seek out easier marks when it comes to targeting it for attacks. And, since it's a non-character you can use more than one in larger games. So, when one goes down there's another one that can receive the spell.

2 stalkers, ghetorix, druid wilder, gorax, skinwalkers with ua, shifting stones with ua. Gnarlhorn satyr, druids with ua

What do you do if you have Ghetorix in another list? (character restrictions)

wow, this looks as a lots of beasts to me: 4 heavys plus Gorax and Laris. how are they handled?
I suppose that the ones that get the Gorax animus cast on have not the Fury leeched, but seems a lot anyway...
Would like to try it, anyway, as it looks very fun, but atm I lack too many models... :(
(unless I go wildly proxing using warroom app to track damage on cards I don't own yet)

p.s. thanks everyone for replies.

I usually only use Ghetorix with eKaya so its never really been an issue.

As for a lot of beasts yes, yes it is. Not always together I would take them but for a fairly nasty list to try for beasts this is not a bad one

eKaya- deployed normally
Laris- deployed normally
Gorax- deployed normally
Druid Wilder- deployed normally
Stalker x3- AD
Gnarlhorn- AD
Pureblood- AD

thanks again mates, will try every suggestions.

as for now, giving the models I own, my list is:

War Room Army

Circle Orboros - New Army

35 / 38 (35+3) Warlock(s) :

Kaya the Moonhunter - WB: +3
- Gorax - PC: 4
- Pureblood Warpwolf - PC: 9
- Warpwolf Stalker - PC: 10

Totem Hunter - PC: 3
Lanyssa Ryssyl, Nyss Sorceress - PC: 2

Shifting Stones - Leader & 2 Grunts: 2
Warpborn Skinwalkers - Leader & 2 Grunts: 5


Minions are still in testing: Nyss Sorceress is there because I mainly fight Legion, Totem Hunter is there to kill solos (Shepherd, Forsaken, etc).. none did great up to now, but I belive it's due more to my inability than their weakness... ^^;
anyway, maybe I should cut 'em and field full Skinwalkers...

You still have room for 3 more points in that list.

you're right...
