Hi, all! I'm fairly new to the game but have been scouring through forums and such to develop a better understanding of list building concepts. Just wanted to get some input from the vets out there as to the potential of having more than one Cage Rager in a list. So far all I have seen is one at the very most in any list. What do you guys think? Thanks!

What do you hope to accomplish with 2 Ragers? They're utility beasts that can pack a decent punch. A second seems a bit redundant.

Some casters can benefit from multiple Cage Ragers - namely anyone who might want multiple castings of Wraithbane, without having the fury to apply themselves, or someone who would like wider coverage with arcane vortexes or arc nodes. They also work better in armies which are corpse strapped, because they have higher base P+S and ARM than S&M.
But generally you're much better off with 1 CR and 1+ S&M, which is why it tends to be the default setup.

I ran a list (Starter,) with Two Cage Ragers on the Heretic. Arc nodes were nice to pass along Fury to my units around the field and Arcane Vortex is always Snazzy. Id say there are casters who might want two. Additionally if you own two (like me,) and only run one...you can Drop the second one is when you run the Shadow Arcana (as you need to own the physical model and put it on the field for that one round.)

Thanks for the feedback guys. i suppose yes, that was my consideration of whether or not it may be good to run more than one given the above benefits. All of this stems from the idea of whether buying two army boxes would see much use apart from the additional heretic warlock.

King of Nothing in particular would hate having both nodes tied up, I expect.
