A friend is coming over for a game tonight, he only has the Cryx box set and the Cygnar box set. I have been collecting some more models and I have:
Sorscha
Butcher
Karchev
Destroyer
Juggernaut
Mechaniks
Doom Reavers
3x Iron Fang Uhlans

We agreed I can use other than just the box stuff, but I can not go over his points value (for Cryx or Cygnar box).

What units should I take? Im trying for a bit more varriety than just Sorscha Destroyer Juggernaut. I could also use a bit of tactical help for any suggested lists.

Thanks all!

Dude, Khador box set can more than handle either Cygnar or Cryx. If you really want to mix it up, and he's okay with non-mangled metal, you could do something like:
Butcher
-Juggernaut
Doom Reavers
OR
Butcher OR Sorscha
Mechaniks
-Destroyer
Uhlans

Oh I am well aware that the box can sufficently thump any other box with only a tiny bit of thought. But i have these nifty doom reavers and those ulhans that I really want to try out. Thanks for those, I might get enough time to use both lists.

So? How'd the game(s) go?

I ended up using just sorscha, destroyer, and juggernaut. We jockeyed for position for the first two turns while I lobbed bombard shells on his head doing decent damage to one bonejack and completely crippling another. Then his slayer engaged my juggernaut and scratched my paint. After that, I smacked the crap out of the slayer with my ice axe. It didnt quite die, but it lost an arm and it's movement. i kept the destroyer where he was since everything was in range and I could aim and shoot as I please, plus he was close enough to bojundless charge in case sorscha got in trouble. I maneuvered sorscha around behind the juggernaut who was now fighting both a bonejack and the slayer (can you do that by the way? can multiple enemies attack one jack?) . He was feeling pretty good when he got some lucky rolls and took down my Juggernaut by boosting a ton of damage onto him. He thought that denny was out of range of anything, but then I used boundless charge and popped my feat. I had three focus left against a frozen opponent. Thats three boosted damage rolls. I only used two of them to end the game.
I know people say that sorschas rush then feat is a dirty trick. Honestly, now that I've tried it and seen how well it works, I probably wont use that trick again, unless I am in a real jam.

Absolutely. You can attack whatever's in your melee range, even if it's engaged by something else.

It should be three attacks, but only two with boosted damage rolls. Sorscha charges, makes her charge attack, damage roll is boosted because it's a charge. Then she spends one focus to attack again (2 left) and boosts damage (1 left). Then she attacks again and runs out of focus.

Anyways, good work stomping those Cryxians.

Right. Well my math was wrong, but I only needed two attacks anyways. So SCORE ONE FOR THE RED TEAM with no rules broken (to my knowledge).
