<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Scyrah beginner in need of help."]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/27.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Scyrah beginner in need of help. LGS have started to get into Warmachine. Now once upon a time I had thought about getting into a Khador army but unfortunately two people have already delved heavily into them. In addition there are already people playing Cygnar, Cryx and Menoth, leaving Scyrah thus far unrepresented. Seeing as Scyrah as yet has no Battlebox I was wondering if I could get some help making a 15-25 point list.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2724648.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2724648.page GMT Re:Scyrah beginner in need of help.
Why don't you pick a caster first and we can build around that.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2725265.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2725265.page GMT Scyrah beginner in need of help. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2725459.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2725459.page GMT Scyrah beginner in need of help. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2725471.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2725471.page GMT Scyrah beginner in need of help. Kaelyssa, Night's Whisper (+7)
- Chimera 6
- Griffon 4
- Manticore 8

However, like everyone else has mentioned. I would take a look at all the casters first and then pick one as their spell lists, abilities and feats alter what you should bring with them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2725540.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2725540.page GMT Scyrah beginner in need of help. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2728622.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2728622.page GMT Scyrah beginner in need of help.
-Personally I lean towards Ravyn simply because I like having a murder machine for a caster. If all else fails, you can just have your caster beat face.

-That being said there's nothing like plugging Deneghra from 18" away with Kaelyssa or seeing the expression on a Hordes player's face when they realize that 3 fury they camped will only mean one transfer.

Ravyn tends to be better in assassinations since her feat means pretty much anything with a ranged attack can kill enemy casters (or she can just stab them), while Kaelyssa is usually better when playing to scenarios using her feat to apply pressure and prevent any kind of effective response as you overrun scoring zones.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2728771.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2728771.page GMT Scyrah beginner in need of help. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2732993.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2732993.page GMT Scyrah beginner in need of help.

If your talking about Ravyn's Tier don't bother. Its beifits are good but you don't want that many MHSF units.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2733097.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2733097.page GMT Scyrah beginner in need of help. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2733226.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2733226.page GMT Scyrah beginner in need of help. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2733349.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2733349.page GMT Scyrah beginner in need of help. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2733885.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2733885.page GMT Scyrah beginner in need of help.

They kill a little more than jacks, actually with Ravyn, they pretty much win games REF: Snipe-Feat-Go

Moving on though, if you're going Ravyn, Discordia is a good investment. The Spray and Ravyn's feat on top of an imprint that can be used to keep the MHSF safe from blast damage is very useful and she fights pretty hard as well. Eiryss, Angel of Retribution is always a good choice even in non-Retribution armies, but when she benfits from Ravyn's feat as well she's about as close to an auto-inlcude as you get. There's plenty more that's good, but those are some basics to start out with.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2733997.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2733997.page GMT Scyrah beginner in need of help. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2737656.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2737656.page GMT Scyrah beginner in need of help.

A surefire sign that none of them played MkI lol
Jokes aside, Dawnguard Invictors are also pretty cool with Ravyn as are Stormfall Archers, honestly Ret has a lot of shooty stuff and Ravyn can work with a lot of them.
Aiyana and Holt is a good investment, kiss of Lyliss is great and while our jacks have magical range attacks its always nice to have more against Menoth/Cryx.
Also the Mage Hunter Assassin, those guys go with any casters.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2738214.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2738214.page GMT Scyrah beginner in need of help. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2741192.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364315/2741192.page GMT Scyrah beginner in need of help.
