When Fyanna first came out I had a lot of success with an infantry based list. Used a unit of Swords (sometimes two), Hellmouths and WeSj.
I really like the idea of using this again and making it work. So... let's make it work!
Locked in:
Wrong Eye and Snapjaw
Swordsmen
Hellmouth
Any thoughts?

I was thinking of Ravens of War, Fyanna with Groteques, and more groteques, and may be a few more grots too.
I think Wrong Eye, Swordsmen and Hellmouth costing you 12-16 points makes them unappealing at the moment, unless you've got a really strong game plan for them. Try them out at the weekend - we can have a battle of what lists suck the most.
My latest Ravens monstrosity paired with Vayl1 CoD archers and friends, vs your double angels and Fyanna and some stuff.

I played It once against Harkevich jack spam. Blightbringer with Fury is great  I don't have WE&SJ yet but he should be fine. Swords are great, we all know that. One thing I need to say whole game I regretted I have only min Hex hunters. Constantly shootihg things like Devastator with Hex bolt is crucial for to keep enough dudes alive (its called Rain of death ?). And playing out of theme hurts a bit so I will try switch to Ravens with infantry builds. Fyanna or Bethayne. conflictchamber.com/#ca201bgNfubbbbfUcobjbla_b0a_fTLegion Army - 75 / 75 points (Fyanna 2) Fyanna, Torment of Everblight [+28] - Blightbringer [38] Blighted Nyss Shepherd [1] Blighted Nyss Shepherd [1] Blighted Nyss Warlord [5] Spell Martyr [1] Blighted Nyss Hex Hunters (min) [9] - Bayal, Hound of Everblight [6] Blighted Nyss Swordsmen (max) [15] - Blighted Nyss Swordsman Abbot & Champion [6] Blighted Nyss Swordsmen (max) [15] Hellmouth [6] |

How can you neglect raptors in a Fyanna list outside of Oracles?
You can shoot hen you aren't ready to engage, and when you are ready to charge you have pathfinder on 13" threat cavalry who are POW 13 weaponmasters with POW 15 mount attacks.

Excellent point.
Locked:
WeSJ
Raptors max
Swordsmen
Is there an argument for double Raptors?

my "Humor me" thread is about a dude spam list with Fyanna. Stacking defense bonuses, feat, mini-feat Legionnaires get up to def 15, arm 24, dodge, immune to stationary knockdown and blast damage. When you get them engaged they can be pow 15 CMA dude bros. Then to back that all up pow 16 weapon master swordsmen/warlord. I have played it as such before but not with the Blightbringer, which is what I'm going to try out next. So I'll let you know how it goes.
edit: you were the first one to comment on my thread >_< So you already know what I'm talking about....

Haha i did think I was talking to someone about it! I couldn't see it because of your hipster thread name. Mine is to the point!
I'm not sure about a BB simply because when I was playing my initial list I found flying beasts are way more effective when jamming infantry into the enemy.

yeah, it is dreadfully slow without flying beasts. I guess it more depends what you're intent is; do you want to drop it against jack/beast spam, is it trying to be an all-comers, or what? So far you're leaning towards a lot of speed; more than Wrong eye can keep up with. So I'm wondering if you can stage it in 2 waves. Paindeer run up, and kite back into your army cluster, then when the waves meet it's your swordsmen under Star cross versus w/e remains of their front line.

Fyanna 2 wb 28
Raekx4 32
Assasin 4
Raiders 12
Swordsmenx2 30
Blightblades 10
Martyrx3 3
Warlordx2 10
Swamp gobbers 2
Had alot of success with this! Only thing im questioning is warlords and blightblades at this point. May switch out for raptors or throne. Not sure if admo works with throne but fury does? I used wrongeye when i started playing fyanna 2Problem i have with wrongeye is he is slow. Hellmouth s problem is its a magnet for electroleaps.

Before Themes/JVM, I was running Fyanna with BB, 1 Angel, Raptors, Swordmen/Warlord. I liked it but I only got to run it a few times so it is largely untested.

I like that actually.... Raeks can jam real hard with that feat.

They will shut down or packman through infanty. Def 18 is solid. Boostable attacks are more likely to hit them but if a heavy misses them they dodge away and your opponents wastes a 15+ point models activation. They are still def 15 the following turn and if they frenzy i tend not to care too much. Throw admo on one and have countercharge shenanigans can be very frustrating for opponents.

The raek spam is really intriguing.
Thinking maybe just two raeks and you can squeeze in the raptors. DEF 17 raptors on feat, DEF 16 swordies, DEF 18 raeks.
I actually really like Typhon in this list. He is naturally ARM 18 plus excessive healing, and he goes to DEF 16 on feat turn which is pretty bananas for a heavy.
