So I don't play Warmahordes, and neither does my mate. But I'm interested in it, have been for a while, and I could probably drag him in, especially with the Khador faction starter. He'll also love that he can just slap some red paint on and call it a day. That leaves me with the Menoth faction starter. I'm not entirely convinced I won't just trade this for Mercs or Gators as those are some of my favorite models in the line. I was wanting to know, if I do stick with Menoth would this be a pretty solid list?

Kreoss

Crusader

Vanquisher

Repenter

Choir of Menoth (leader and 5 grunts)

Deliverers (leader and 9 grunts)

Exemplar Bastion Seneschal

Exemplar Bastions (leader and 5 grunts)


My questions really are pretty simple. What jack should/do I marshal to the seneschal? I was thinking the Repenter as the defensive buffs help the light jack the most and it suffers the least from having no focus.

And my other question, is it fairly simple to convert Cinerators to Bastions? I know the halberds are fancier than this but a halberd is essentially a sword on a stick so would it be conceivable to just not use the shields and add some rods to make long pointy sticky things instead of short pointy sticky things?

take a look on YouTube to see if there are any videos converting Cins to Bastions. It can be done since I hear about people doing it all the time.

I would Marshall the repenter also if that's the list your going with.

Ok, Deliverers are just awful. Please don't buy them. Most hardcore protectorate players don't own them.

The repenter is the best jack for the seneschal to marshal out of any of them. And BTW, only the seneschal gets the arm bonus for being BtB with his jacks. They keep him alive, not the other way around.

There are some other things you should purchase. A Reckoner and a Redeemer. These, plus the Vanquisher, are part of pKreoss's holy trinity of jacks. He feats, his jacks shoot the enemy warcaster dead. Plus the Reckoner is just the best darn warjack in the game.

Instead of Deliverers, I would get Errants and their UA. They're a staple in protectorate, perfect for Defenders Ward to go on.
