Hello all,
I'm getting ready for a tournament at the end of June and I'm looking to refine my list pairings. Any thoughts or criticism is welcome. So without further ado...

Circle Army - 75 / 75 points
(Tanith 1) Tanith the Feral Song [+31] - Gorax Rager [7] - Loki [19] - Pureblood Warpwolf [17] - Woldwyrd [9] - Woldwyrd [9] - Druid Wilder [4] Blackclad Wayfarer [4] Gallows Grove [2] Reeves of Orboros (max) [16] - Reeve of Orboros Chieftain & Standard [4] Sentry Stone & Mannikins [5] Sentry Stone & Mannikins [5] Shifting Stones [3] Swamp Gobbers Bellows Crew [2]

Circle Army - 75 / 75 points [Theme] The Bones of Orboros
(Baldur 2) Baldur the Stonesoul [+30] - Megalith [20] - Wold Guardian [17] - Woldwrath [37] - Woldwyrd [9] - Woldwyrd [9] Blackclad Stoneshaper [0(3)] Blackclad Stoneshaper [0(3)] Blackclad Wayfarer [0(4)] Sentry Stone & Mannikins [5] Sentry Stone & Mannikins [5] Shifting Stones [3]
The basic plan is that Tanith can handle most infantry or moderate armor lists as well as any lists that don't have a way to ignore stealth.
For all gunlines, especiailly ones that see through stealth, baldur should be able to whether through his high arm.
I'm a little worried about super heavy jack spam (harkevich comes to mind) but I think Baldur can manage that through proper use of his rockwall. Also, unfortunately I don't have a second Woldwrath so that's not an option at the moment. Other that that, any suggestions you folks can offer? Tips I should keep in mind while playing or any obvious weaknesses in matchups? Thanks.

My chief concern is that neither of these lists is really going to let you deal with a serious Jack-Spam (Khador in particular) list. I'm not familiar with your local Meta, but in mine trying to win on Control simply won't cut it alone. Healing a Woldwrath like madman doesn't do you any good if they put it down in one Turn, and against a proper Jack-Spam army that is exactly what you are going to experience. Both of these lists deal with essentially the same kind of opponent well, but neither deal with a simple wrecking crew. I would strongly suggest choosing whichever one is your weakest (based on personal style and experience) and swap it out for your own Heavy-Spam list, ideally fielding Kaya-2.

Yeah, I was definitely concerned about Jack-Spam and I believe the meta I'm traveling to will have quite a bit of it. And I've been wanting to run Kaya2 for some time now so how about something like this to replace Tanith? conflictchamber.com/#c8201b3T4OgZ4M4K5lfF5e5e5fCircle Army - 75 / 75 points (Kaya 2) Kaya the Moonhunter [+24] - Feral Warpwolf [18] - Loki [19] - Pureblood Warpwolf [17] - Shadowhorn Satyr [12] - Warpwolf Stalker [19] Swamp Gobber Chef [1] Sentry Stone & Mannikins [5] Sentry Stone & Mannikins [5] Shifting Stones [3]

The one modify I made has been switching Pureblood for a second Shadowhorn, a Wayfarer and a second Chef. Since this is my Khador drop, Blessed is not so fundamental, while having a second throw a another threat extender proves oftern very useful.

These are pretty great suggestions but unfortunately I don't have a second shadowhorn or a second gobber chef. Do you think one of the other goats would be worth it to sub in over the pureblood? I could get a riphorn and the second set of stones for more fury management, might be fun with forced evo.

I think the real missing here is wayfarer, so after subtracting from Pureblood you are left with 13 points. The only choices are Shadowhorn and Gnarlhorn, and I believe there is no use for the latter until some changes happen. You could instead go for lights, but I think Kaya2 works best with 5 heavies. I'd stick to the Pureblood then, not a bad tool to have in the end.
