Playing around with a few ideas for a 50 point Mortenebra list.

Mortenebra & Deryliss
Deathjack
Slayer x2
Reaper
Seether
Harrower
Warwitch Siren x2
3 Scrap Thralls x2
Necrotech & Scrap Thrall x2
Bloat Thrall

This list conforms to the criteria for tier 4 so all my Scrap Thralls have Advance Deploy my Warjacks have Stealth for the first turn (round?) and my deployment zone is increased my 2".

Any thoughts?

I am not real familiar with montenebra mk2, but all those jacks running around and trampling stuff sure could be alot of fun. Plus several of the jacks on the list come with 3 base attacks which makes it a little easier to take on infantry, add in the siren sprays and the scrappies blowing holes in infantry formations. And you could have one very effective assasination list vs casters that can't hang way back.

Honestly it looks like it would be a blast to play with and against. Whitekong has it right... it has tools to still deal with infantry and the seether's and warwitches make it a very focus efficent list. It's biggest problems would be running into a heavy shooty army... like Kara Sloan, Seige, or Hailey1 with heavy Hunter/Defenders.

Thanks guys. As soon as I've painted the Warwitch Siren, Hecatha the Satyxis Raider (proxied as the second Warwitch Siren) and the last of the Scrap thralls it'll be ready to play.

I'm wondering if I should drop Deathjack for another Slayer (proxied by my converted Nightmare) and another Reaper (There's a cheap second hand one available locally) as well as dropping one group of three Scrap Thralls for another Necrotech (and Scrap thrall).

Not much I can do about heavy shooting except get in there fast and hope that I can repair my way out of the worst damage.

Nice thing about the deathjack is he draws so much attention you may get most of your army where you want it while your opponent tries to kill him. I think I would go with the second necrotech, with that many jacks running around there are probably going to be many opportunities to make repairs. And let's face it a slayer or seether with only one arm, or no movement isn't that scary.

Leviathan

3 Scrap Thralls x2

Slight modification to the list, needed a little more firepower, so I've swapped the Seether for a Levathan. I'm also thinking of dropping a Slayer and 3 Scrap Thralls for a second Reaper.
