The mammoth is a big part of why I decided to go with Skorne so I wrote up a quick list with it in, how does it look?

pMorghoul
Mammoth
Cyclops Raider
Basilisk Krea
Mortitheurge Willbreaker
2x Paingiver Taskmaster
2x Gatormen Posse
2x Min Paingiver Beast Handlers

Thankssss.

Hmm... My real thought is that pMorghoul doesn't really seem to fit into this list at all.

Otherwise, it looks like a pretty good Skorne list. It's just that pMorghoul is a caster that specializes in Beast missiles and the Mammoth wants to toss down shots before it gets into melee, so it'll want to stay toward the back.

Use Rasheth or eHexeris and this list would be ridiculously better, it's just that pMorghoul's spells don't help the ranged game that the Mammoth brings to the table, nor does he really help the utility light beasts you have.

Rasheth is better in tier, but at the same time, he has a mess of good buffs, and a wide control so you can set that Mammoth wherever you want.

However, I'd say go with eHexeris to get the most out of everything involved. Blackspot + Ancilliary attack/Puppet Strings can do some beautiful things with the Mammoth's AOEs

Thanks for the reply. I hate the eHexeris model (pHexeris is a much better model), so I went with Rasheth:

Rasheth
Mammoth
Basilisk Krea
Cyclops Raider
Mortitheurge Willbreaker
Paingiver Taskmaster
Paingiver Taskmaster
Gatorman Posse
Gatorman Posse
Min Paingiver Beast Handlers

Glad I could help!
Tell me how the list fairs, because I'd really want to see if Rasheth can get the Mammoth to put in work.
Theory and Application, two sides of the same coin and all that.

What might be interesting to try, given that Rasheth's 8 fury means you can run his Battlegroup really high on fury, would be to drop the Beast Handlers and toss in an Extoller for eyeless sight on the Mammoth.

Given that you won't be running up the Mammoth's 5 Fury every turn, you'd have plenty of room to get work out of the Krea and the Raider.

Sure it's heretical against the glorious ancestors to not always try to put in Beast Handlers but it would be an interesting experiment.

Yeah I'll let you know when I have a chance to play it thanks. And okay I'll try it with the Soulward instead

Could you use the pHexeris model with the epic card? I think the weapons are the same and you could just let your opponent know what you're doing if that's the case.

Casual games yes, tournaments no.
