Or should I drop the B13 and keep the charger?

I'm not a Cygnar player, so I might not be the best at offering advice.

In the times I've played against them the B13 are a B%@#$. As I believe they can shoot stealth models and get rid of def bonuses for being in cover and concealment. (Please don't jump down my back on this one if I'm wrong, just going from memory).

Looks pretty solid. The one thing I would suggest is to swap the defender for a Hunter in the 35pt list, and upgrade the Ironclad to Ol'Rowdy or a Stormclad.

Hunter is generally just as good as the defender at putting holes in 'jacks, and Ol'Rowdy is a massive improvement over a normal Ironclad. The Stormclad hits harder than an Ironclad, has reach, and generates focus from the Stormblades.

For Ol'Rowdy, that leaves you with one point to spend- I'd recommend a Stormsmith to snipe at enemy models and disrupt enemy jacks, or the New Gobber Tinker when they release a model for it.

1 member can shoot stealth models, and he can put down a flare (kinda like the spriggan, but its a shooting attack AOE 5), and that helps them ignore concealment, not sure about cover, card isn't right here.

And Carnifex has a point, but the Hunter can't handle small bases, like at all, so if you end up against an army which focuses on infantry, your hunter becomes next to useless, whereas a defender can still punch out a model a turn.
