Commando styled Cygnar army list (25 points)

January 23, 2010 on 12:44 am | In Warmachine | 1 Comment

This article is going to talk about what type of army I intend to play in Warmachine. However, don’t expect a treatise with tactical brilliance here. After all, it was the beauty of the models that got me drawn into Warmachine, so the degree of me liking/not liking a certain miniature was the most important factor on whether it made it into this list or not.

To create this list, I started out with Dannon Blythe & Bull and worked my way up based on what models I liked and made game wise sense to be added.

So, here’s the list:

Captain Allister Caine (-5)
Thunderhead (12)
Reinholdt, Gobber Speculator (1)
Black 13th Gun Mage Strike Team (4)
Dannon Blythe & Bull (4)
Greygore Boomhowler & Company (6)
Eiryss, Mage Hunter of Ios (3)
Total number of points: 25

Tactics:
The list is very unusual, but fairly simple:

  1. The Black 13, Dannon Blythe & Bull, Eiryss, and last but not least Allister Caine lay down the law and go after the enemy’s warcaster. As half of my list is made up with Mercenaries, I liked to have Allister Caine in there as he’s not that much of a traditional military officer but more of a rogue with a military rank (which he is not too happy about).
  2. Allister Caine is a focus hog, so I needed a Warjack that works pretty much left alone. The Thunderhead is a good choice for that. Together with Greygore Boomhowler & Company, he’s the blocker in this list.
  3. Reinholdt is just there to bring the list up to 25 points and will work as a lucky charm for Allister Caine. I guess I will paint him like a Leprechaun. :-D

  1. Cygnar huh? I play them too, though I haven’t played any games with the MKII rules. I know Eiryss is pretty much one of the best units in the whole game.

    Honestly I don’t have any of the models you are using, so I can’t say about any of them. I’m still a noob.
