The FLGS I play at is starting another Journeyman League next week and I'm planning on getting into the Warmachine side of the game with Cygnar. So far I just have the Cygnar battlebox (so pStryker, Ironclad, Lancer, and a Charger), and ultimately I need to increase that to a 35 point list. Anyone have any ideas or tips?

What are the rules for journeymen leagues again? Point increments, and rules on swapping out models/casters?

I forget the exact increases, but the first week is the battlebox, the next week increases to 15 (if theres room to increase), then I think it goes up 5 points each week. Around week 3 or 4 a caster swap is allowed.

I was thinking of adding an Avenger and/or a Cyclone, and most likely Ol' Rowdy for 'jacks, then swapping for either eHaley or eStryker. Have no clue on what units and solo's to get though.

Well the easiest addition to the Cygnar battlebox without dropping anything to bring it to 15 is the Black 13th. They are a really great character unit who bring a lot to the fight.

You lack heavy duty long range power in your list, and an Avenger and/or a Cyclone aren't really going to add to it. I love the Defender for this job, and to go to 20 you could drop the Charger and pick up the Defender with the remaining points (from memory).

I think you will want to offload a warjack to a jr. as soon as possible. Plus, two arc shields is really nice.
