Protectors, carnivians and neraphs make best use of hyper agressive I think.
Protectors because it gives you a choice of which model to move, And neraphs and carnivians because reach1 is rubbish, so moving to engage stops cav running away with out free strikes AND it can get you some nice board position.

Don't Neraphs and Carniveans both have 1" melee? also Stockpile(edit) Steamroller objective synergizes with hyper-aggressive.

I think he means in the case of, say, 2" cav models charging your 1" beast and trying to repo back out... instead you clomp up to engage them (but even if they do, it's a rare reposition that takes them out of even a carnivean's threat next turn)

I did mean it - I've had Carnivians charged then had the horses move out of the way so the jack could come in and finish it off and not been able to take free strikes - at least this way I get some free strikes and make be kill a horse or two...
Hyperagressive works best on rubbishy cheap beasts (I've seen it used on Monstrosities in Merc really nicely), and makes up a little bit for not having reach. It also gets you a bit extra threat. I'm not sure what will be best. The Nerpah Swarm with Abby JVM suggests above might be cool.
I've been trying to find it useful since its one of Abby's spells. With the new theme, she at leasts gets to cast it. Stockpile might be fun. I've been using Bunker I think, because Bunker - but with Abby's feat and hyper aggressive your completely correct!

I gotta say I wasn't initially a fan of the theme (yes there was only one theme released, I don't know what you're talking about) because I love my named beasts and a bit of infantry, but now it looks as if we would be rather mad to not play at least one of our lists in Oracles.
The ability to pick as many points as we want in beasts, and not have to worry about fury management with two free forsaken is gold. A free sorceress is great even if you just use her as a jamming piece, and there is even argument for a second one over a succubus. I look forward to coming up against sentinels now that I have blight field in my arsenal.
Fyanna loves having her upkeeps up turn one, so going second isn't such an encumberence anymore, and she doesn't have to walk up turn one with 0 focus and hope that people don't shoot at her.
While I'll really miss Proteus, the idea for this list is to get the alpha, tie things up, and then let the pow 23 carnivean go to town. Threating 18" with kiss is amazing!
Fyanna Angelius Carnivean Neraph Neraph Naga Raek BFS Sorceress Forsaken Forsaken Spell Martyr 3 Shepherds
Max fury management for that second turn where everything goes up to max, and probably survives because of the bonkers feat!

Like move parts with neraphs and Proteus? Defense 14 and up to 16 with forced ego can be a pain to deal with. On top of that it increases pow to 17 which is a threat.

yea that was clear. I just get the impression that the whole list would love to have Evo. It is filled with tech and reads interesting. It just seems/feels like it has not enough power for the many jacks spams i see. So i was dying to hear more.

The kind of trading where you rip people off or just snatch and run.
