Steamroller 2013: Year of Cryx Edition

"Blah blah blah... I haven't posted... blah blah blah... life is busy.... blah blah blah...."

Ok, now that THAT'S out of the way... Life has been hectic. This Dad thing is taking some getting used to, but a rhythm has began to appear. Sleep is for weaklings anyways...

Happy President's day weekend to everyone out there. My wife and daughter went to visit her parents for the weekend leaving me with a nerd weekend of legendary proportions. Tonight, Magic Sealed Deck, tomorrow Warmahordes Tourney.

My last tourney appearance ended with a first place finish. Hoping to make a repeat this weekend. I'm taking Cryx armies exclusively to any and all events until at least June, so here are my lists.

LIST ONE:
eSkarre: Theme Force Tier 4 35 points

eSkarre
-Slayer
-Deathripper
-Leviathan

-Min Satyxis Raiders+ UA
-Min Satyxis Raiders+ UA
-Min Satyxis Blood Witches+ UA

-Satyxis Raider Captain
-Satyxis Raider Captain

This list is fast. I should be able to jam most objectives and destroy the destructable bases very quickly while allowing eSkarre to use her battle group to tangle up any enemy heavies. If a collosal is possible this list will go for the feedback kill early on. Ideally this list won't see any Hordes' opponents.

LIST TWO:
pSkarre: 35 Points

pSkarre
Skarlock Thrall
-Kraken

-Max Mechanithralls
-Necrosurgeon and Stitch Thralls
-Min Satyxis Raiders+ UA
-Min Satyxis Blood Witches+ UA

Not as fast as list one, due to the loss of the captains, this list is built more for attrition. The raiders will jam early, and die early while the mech thralls and witches will work for objectives using Skarre's feat and the witches mini feat for additional survivability. The Kraken is there to move onto objectives and bring things down at range. 35 points really hurts this list as I have no arc node, but Skarre will become a much more mid field caster with blood rites and her feat.

Everything is painted and ready to rumble. I will post pictures and results tomorrow!
