Hi! I'm new to warmachine and I'm trying to come up with a list for a steamroller tournament, not planning on being supper competitive but having fun playing what I like. I've had very few games and I would like to know your opinion on these lists so I don't waste money on models I don't need to buy. here's what I got. Any help will be very appreciated

Jugger list 35 points

Forward Kommander Sorscha
Spriggan
Man-o-war Kovnik
Juggernaut
Juggernaut
Widowmakers (Leader and 3 Grunts)
Winter Guard Infantry (Leader and 9 Grunts)
Winter Guard Infantry Officer & Standar
Kovnik Jozef Grigorovich

This one was my first Idea, where i harass with firepower forcing my oponent to engage in melee and take him down with 3 melee heavy jacks. Man o war kovnik will marshall the two juggers, the sprigan will be bonded to sorscha. its a bit points heavy on the jacks. I could probably drop the spriggan and take a cheaper jack like a kodiak. and that would free up two more points. I figured eSorscha's feat hurts most when a pow 19 jack makes some damage and it's kinda my idea of fun. I could also replace the juggers for berserkers and free up two more points but I kinda like arm 20

Gunline list 35 points

Forward Kommander Sorscha
Behemoth
Destroyer
Koldun Lord
War dog
Widowmakers (Leader and 3 Grunts)
Winter Guard Infantry (Leader and 9 Grunts)
Winter Guard Infantry Officer & Standar
Winter Guard Infantry Rocketeers2
Kovnik Jozef Grigorovich

This one is straight forward overwhelm with firepower, casting shatterstorm on the widowmakers, freezing grip to enemy infantry and blowing stuff away with the rocketeers destroyer and behemoth.

What do you guys think? which one should I take, which one will do better and what would you do differently to make these lists work best.

I like the first list. Only thing I would change would be a destroyer instead of one of the juggernauts. I like having the bit of shooting if I need it

Ultramarines 2500
Salamanders 3500
Necrons 4000
Skitarii/cult mech 2500

My 2 cents on list #2: You have alot of infantry clearing options in that list. The winterguard, while they can lay down a few strong attacks for hard targets, they are really good at wiping out infantry with their sprays. The rocketeers are also adept at clearing light infantry, the widowmakers are great for killing single wound infantry, shatterstorm is good for massed infantry. The behemoth can kill infantry but really is the only thing in the list that shines at decking hard targets. The destroyer is mediocre at both for it's point cost. Any of our other jacks are better at damaging hard targets than a destroyer while being less points and the list really does not need another answer to infantry swarms as it already has 4 3" aoe attacks on top of shatterstorms from the widowmakers. I think you would get more mileage out of some models that can crush heavy targets. This could be a different warjack to work with the behemoth but the behemoth can already drain sorscha's focus by itself so I think you would be better off taking some hard hitting melee troops. 9 points gives you a mountain of options; Greatbears hit extremely hard, they are fairly durable, fast, great threat range, two P+S12 hit from each at MAT 8 is going to deal with pretty much anything. Or - the MOW Drakhun, while not being able to deal out as much damage as the bears, it has a higher threat range and is much more difficult to take down, but you really cant screen it since it is a large base. It is about as tough to kill as a solid light warjack and it hits as hard as the destroyer in melee. Either of these will leave you with 4 points which could be filled with Manhunters, Kayazy eliminators, Gorman di Wolfe for his blind greanade/rust grenade, or any of the other 2pt merc solos. Personally I would take the great bears, manhunter, and Gorman instead of the destroyer and I would get much more mileage out of them than I would out of the destroyer.
