Hey guys, been brainstorming a Butcher2 list, but don't want to just spam Doom Reavers. I don't want to buy a whole bunch of them just for one list, or paint that many of the same exact set of models. So, here is what I came up with. Please let me know what can be made better.

Butcher2
Ruin
War Dog
Iron Fang Pikemen W/UA
Great Bears
Iron Fang Kovnik
Widowmakers
Fenris
31/35

I can't decide on what to use the last four points for though, I was thinking either a Greylord Ternion for some cloud effects or if two Manhunters would be better to take advantage of the feat.

But but but this is an outrage! No doom reavers in a B2 force!


Joking aside. I'd consider bringing a MoW Drakhan. He loves being able to swing again and again.

Greylords are good , because they can conceal the bears or big b himself.

Okay, so would it be worth dropping Fenris for the Drukhun? Or would it be better to take a Drukhun with no dismount as the last four points, or take a risk and not have the Dog to have a dismount in the Drakhun? I feel like I want as many avenues of attack for the feat turn.

Have Fenris and the Drakhun.

I'd drop the dog if you have no other choice.

The widowmakers seem a little out of place.

The Widowmakers are there for spot removal, and to generate Rage Tokens at range for the feat turn.

Widow makers belong in every list, never failed to cause damage.

I agree widowmakers are awesome, My only worry is they are the only ranged unit in the army, and will either be singled out early on, or will be left alone, and I forsee LoS issues with them trying to engage around all of your other units.
