It seems like there are so many Khador army list threads on here. I'mma add my own flavor.

I'm trying to build up a list themed around Warjacks and MoW. I have some models, not sure what I should get. Basically I'm looking for an ideal list vs. an economical list.

Economical list: (using the models I have and adding extra stuff)
Butcher or eButcher (please argue the merits of each. I like the aggressiveness of eButcher though)
Juggernaut
Destroyer
Drago
Beserker
War Dog
Battle Mechanics (4 man)
MoW demo corps (3 man)
Manhunter

The plan would be to run everything as a massive brick, with demo and manhunter providing a distraction for the 'jack blob. I'm a new player, and even I think this won't work. Too many jacks for a random amount of focus. Even regular Vlad's 6 focus doesn't seem like enough. That said, I wasn't planning on giving focus to Drago or Beserker, just turning them loose.

Ideal list: (what seems like a balanced list under the theme I want)
Butcher or eButcher (once again, please argue for one or the other. I seem to like eButcher more though)
Destroyer
Juggernaut
War Dog
4 man Battle Mechaniks
5 man MoW Demo corps
5 man MoW Shock Troopers
Widowmakers

Could also swap the widowmakers and mechaniks for another 3 man MoW unit. General plan would be another tough to shoot brick, Shock troopers walk in front and shield wall/obscure everything else. Slow advancing anvil, with the Demo corps maybe acting as the hammer.

Please rip these apart and post alternatives! I could really use the help.

Please critique! I'm very new to the game and would

you should take a look at the pButcher tier list that was released last week. it makes MOW shocktroopers cheaper and gives them a speed boost on their first turn. i think ithas what you like.

if you read the posts in this link, you may get a better idea of what to use with the butcher:

personally, I wouldn't use the mekaniks unless I had several ranged warjacks. In place of them I would either add more men of war (especially in the first list), or I would add something that could help the rest of the army stay alive (grey lords casting on Demo Corps) OR I would add diversity and take the widowmakers instead.

oh, and if you don't have Beast09 yet, and you want to run Butcher, I suggest you get it. It works INSANELY well with reg OR e butcher.

epic-----reach+ravager+Beast09's imprint is amazing!
reg-----reach+thresher+feat is amazing!

Get a second manhunter and Yuri. Work well with butcher and also his tier lists...
