So I'm still trying to get a good band of heroes list to pair with our more popular theme force. I've been running madrak2 for a while, which has gone decently, but i was thinking the other day and came up with this.
Calandra Bomberx2 Fenns with Ua Champs with skaldi max Champs Fell Caller Chronicler Champ Hero
So you have a great alpha stricking jamming unit protected by star crossed, with def 14 champs following behind. A champ actually does more damage on average under calandra's feat than it does with blood fury, and you have the ever present threat of a bomber assassination that is almost as good as Grissel2's
I haven't run it yet because I'm nit sure if i want to buy another unit of champs, but it looks like it could be good. Anyone ever run anything like this?

If I see it right, you can go ith 2 min units of champs instead of the larger one. That way you´ll get one more solo for free which doesn´t change your number of solos but you´ll get an additional champ.
I contemplated almost the exact same list today. One thing that might be problematic is the need for btb champions which severly hinders your board presence. Another problem is stying power. Yes, DEF14 under star crossed is huge, but your foe just needs a damage roll of 21 to box a champion. Right now there is almost nothing in the game that can´t do this. Every single P+S 11 trooper is able to slay a champion on the charge. And although Star Crossed will negate roughly 40 to 60% of all opposing attacks, mass infantry might be able to successfully slay your 11 to 12 champions. It´s a pitty.
Nevertheless I´m going to try that list (I will use proxies before getting all that stuff).
On the other hand I can see that model pool working well under Horgle2. Horgle2´s feat is of great help for champions too. It´s pretty similar to Calandras in damage output. Inviolable Resolve and Solid Ground might help with the staying power, I think it´s comparable to Star Crossed.
