So I have finally pulled the trigger, after a long time of lurking in the forums I have finally picked up a second faction adding minions, gators specifically, to my Retribution. I purchased a used lot and I was wondering if you all could help me out by giving me some advice on lists and maybe even what to pick up next thought I already burned most of my spending money. Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
Here is what I picked up. Calaban Wrastler Wrastler/BlindWalker Kit Spitter SwampHorror Bullsnapper x2 Bone Swarm Sacral Vault Gatorman Posse x2 Croak Raiders x2 Bog Trog Ambushers 19models Gatorman Bokor and Shamblers Croak Hunter Gatorman Witch Doctor x2 Feralgeist
Already owned from Ret. Nyss Hunters Dahlia and Skarreth Lanyssa

I haven't got into Gators yet, but just as a glance I would pick up the other casters obviously, a totem Hunter, and maybe a second spitter and wrong eye and snapjaw. Great pickup btw, grats.

Thanks for the advice, I plan on getting Wong Eye + SJ as well as another caster but does anyone have any advice on who would go well with what I have? I was thinking Mealok or Rask. Also would it be worth it to by the parts needed from the PP store to make up for the missing ambushee model or will I never use two Max units.

Staying in Gators...I would say Rask. And I can't say I would ever run to max units of ambushers but I am not a Gators man.... Yet.

Rask/Calaban is a very respectable pairing.

My experience says that running min ambushing units is all it needs. Normally you´re heading for the weaker support stuff and that´s something a min unit can do well.

Rask/Calaban is a very respectable pairing. Okay, thank you. That will probably be what I go with I'm actually really excited to try out the Bokor/Shamblers and Rask Combo both as great fury targets and for the increased survivability. Also would it be worth it to by the parts needed from the PP store to make up for the missing ambushee model or will I never use two Max units. You will never run max ambushing units. My experience says that running min ambushing units is all it needs. Normally you´re heading for the weaker support stuff and that´s something a min unit can do well. So the 3 Min Units that I can create with my 19 models will be more than enough I take it?

I personally would turn your 19 Bog Trogs into one max unit, take a min unit in lists if you want to ambush with them (max unit for AD screen), and then sit on the rest until you reach a point where you have a use for them that would justify the monetary investment to complete a second unit.
