Winter Guard Mortar Crew (Leader and Grunt)
Widowmaker Marksman
Im thinking of removing the Marksmen for the IFP Kovnik.

Widowmakers and marksman are a hard counter to the book, and a respectable mop-up option. Not saying you shouldn't, but what's the thought for the swap?

Either Jozef grigorivich or an IF Kovnik

Perhaps i could have phrased it another way: what answers does the change-out provide that you think is lacking in the list?

It would make the IFP faster with the kovnik
But Jozef would made the WGI good and useful

you need the joeblob. throw 3 wa and joe on one of those wg units. take away whatever needs to go, the joeblob IS THAT GOOD with eIrusk.

A fun eIrusk list I have played against and with is;

eIrusk
-Behemoth
Max Black Dragon Pikemen w/UA
Great Bears of Gallowswood
Iron Fang Kovnik
Winter guard Rifle Corps
Kovnik Joe

The Kovnik makes the Pikemen and Bears immune to knockdown, which goes well with eIrusk giving them tough. The Riflecorps have great range and can shoot through the Pikemen and Bears clearing charge lanes with boosted shots from Joe, and between Airburst from Irusk and Behemoth's bombards I generally don't have a problem with stealthed infantry. If your going against an incorporeal heavy list, drop the Bears and take Aiyana and Holt for range 14 boosted magical Pow 10's. Generally does the trick.
