Here's a combo I thought up today (I haven't seen it posted anywhere yet) in preparation for playing my Skorne tonight.  I usually play Morghoul, so I've been trying to think up combos for Makeda and Hexeris.

-> Friendly Frenzy (well, that's what I'm calling it so far)

- Purpose: Target enemy warbeast in attempt to make it frenzy and attack its own side.

- Required models:  

a. Hexeris or Makeda
b. Basilisk Drake
c. Basilisk Krea

- Optional models:  a. Paingiver Beast Handlers

1. Pick target: Should be enemy warbeast that:
 - Has fury on it.
 - Has friendly models in its back arc.
 - The bigger the better.

2. Basilisk Drake attacks target enemy warbeast with Withering Gaze (boost attack and damage)
 - This turns the warbeast around, so friendly troops are now in its front arc.

3. Basilisk Krea attacks target enemy warbeast with Spiritual Paralysis
 - The warbeast's fury now cannot be leached.

4. Hexeris casts The Suffering on target enemy warbeast.
 - The warbeast is now at -2 THR, and must pass threshold test next Control Phase even if it doesn't have Fury.

OR

   Makeda casts The Lash on target enemy warbeast.
 - The warbeast is now at -2 CMD and THR.

5. OPTIONAL: Attack target enemy warbeast with Paingiver Beast Handlers in an attempt to max out the 'beast's Fury stat.

Next turn, enemy beast is making a Threshold test at -2, hopefully with maxed Fury.

- This means a DTM would need to roll a 4 on two dice to pass.

A little complicated, but it could work out in a very cool way.

Interesting combo but it seems focus intensive for the end result maybe?
