So here is the list

Vlad3
-War Dog
-Drago
Gun Carriage
Fenris
Drakhun
Uhlan Kovnik Markov
2x min unit IF Uhlans
full unit outriders

The idea is based around the Drago Bomb theory, and this would definetly be my anti-infantry/speed list in any format. Basically the Outriders,Uhlans, and fenris do their thing, Gun carriage is there for SOME range and board control. But then Vlad pops feat gives Drago 3 focus and charges the jack foward. Basically a hail mary with hoping it explodes in the enemy warnoun's face, but he can also just clear quite a bit of the enemy army away (and he has hands of fate). SO this is with sticking with his theme list, all cav, no frills.

NON THEME
Vlad 3
-Drago
-Wardog
Gun Carriage
Iron Fang Kovnik
min greylord Outriders
max Iron Fang Uhlans
IFP w/ black dragon att.
Doom reavers w/ att.

Basically similary concept but with a little more going on, Drago and Vlad3 still doing the hurting on feat turn, but I have Doom reavers to mess up the other guys plans early (especially with dash) and IFP as a second line assault unit.
Thoughts? Ideas? Comments?

tier 1-additional FA on cav units and battle engines
tier 2-speed bonus on first turn for warjacks
tier 3-+1 to starting roll
tier 4-warjacks cost less

Basically, is the Tier list I'm running diverse enough to justify the tier bonuses, as dash can give the same speed bonus, but i'd be losing out on taking extra uhlans and the starting roll and point reduction are nice but not world shattering.

The big problem here is that Drago doesn't bomb with Vlad. If he's in Vlad's battle group he loses the unstable rule.

Well... why stopping yourself to one bomb... when in Tier 4 you can have cheap Berseker for 5pts. I am tempted to make a list with Drago and a Berseker and unleash the Berseker as suicide bomb and leave Drago to what remain alive. Playing a single warjack as suicide bomb... it might sound a bit risky.

Grrr.... Cheese make me fart...

So an original version of the list DID have a second serk, but the problem is the bomb really only works on the feet turn and i want Vlad to have some focus for himself to do mop up that round if the bomb doesn't work.

Well... just use the Berseker as suicide bomb and keep Drago as second wave. Since Tier 4 allow to reduce Warjack cost by one... It will be useless to use it only for Drago, but well it's all up to you.
