Long time 40k player taking my first swing at wmhd. I've really enjoyed the escalation leagues for 40k and Fantasy my shop runs which go for 6 months and jump a point level every month with a free month end tournament and nice discounts for league players so I figured I would try this out. Starting level for our new league is 15 points and I've chosen Menoth. What I have so far is as follows and I'm willing to buy anything needed. I want to have competitive lists but not broken and I want to understand how to build my own. I know this will come with time so for now any advice is welcome.

I currently own

Warcasters -

High Exemplar Kreoss

Harbinger of Menoth(Coolest model I've seen and the reason I chose Menoth.)

Light Warjack -

Repenter

Heavy Warjack -

Crusader

Reckoner

Vanquisher

Solo -

Vassal Mechanik

Wrack

Unit -

Choir of Menoth

Exemplar Cinerators

For 15 points I thought this was a decent start...

HE Kreoss
- Reckoner
- Vanquisher

Choir of Menoth(full)

Vassal Mechanik

Or

Choir(small)

Vassal of Menoth

I eventually want to run Harbinger because she is awesome looking...was thinking her with the Avatar of Menoth and Guardian with Choir and Heirophant as the base was a good start. Please let me know what you think...I've only played 1 game and neither of us knew what we were doing so I'm getting a crash course from a friend Sunday. Thanks!

No Guardian with Harbinger. She has no use for an Arc Node and all our casters that do want the Revenger instead.

Anyway, if you want to run Harbinger eventually you'll want to pick up Temple Flameguard and/or Errants. Both with their UAs. Some good support solos for infantry are the Covenant of Menoth and Rupert Carvolo.

You'll also want Wracks and Heirophant for spell casting support.

For solos, Harbinger loves Paladins and Vilmon. Her Martyrdom ability synergizes well with them. Also, every Menoth player needs to have 2 Vassals.

You actually have a good start for a pKreoss list as well. he likes shooty jacks, like the Vanquisher, Reckoner, and Redeemer. Pop the feat, shoot the enemy warcaster while they're only def5 against shooting.


As soon as possible, change the Cinerators into Bastions. Who are so much better for the same cost and basically the same purpose.
