In my search for a new list, I stumbled upon a Sevvy2 list on Discount Games.
It appears to drop well into Ghost fleet, and looks to be an anti-infantry drop.
War Room Army
Protectorate of Menoth - Hierarch Severius

Hierarch Severius - WJ: +26 - Hierophant - PC: 3 - Blessing of Vengeance - PC: 13 (Battlegroup Points Used: 13) - Reckoner - PC: 16 (Battlegroup Points Used: 13) - Redeemer - PC: 11 - Templar - PC: 15
Vessel of Judgment - PC: 18
The Covenant of Menoth - PC: 0 Vassal of Menoth - PC: 0 Wrack - PC: 1 Initiate Tristan Durant - PC: 0 - Vigilant - PC: 9 Vassal Mechanik - PC: 1 Vassal Mechanik - PC: 1

I'd probably pair this with my Amon warjack list.
What do people think about how it would play into the new SR?
Anything I'd need to look out for?

I actually just tested this list out at an SR last weekend, using it in 3 out of 4 rounds. My one win with the list was against Rask on Outlast, where I assassinated him after doing significant Admonisher damage with the Vessel.
I lost into Butcher3, after forgetting to feat away his Sac Pawn targets. Had I done that, I had decent odds of shooting him to death with the Vessel, Redeemer, and Sevy's spells. I also lost against the Dreamer on scenario (Spread the Net). In all 3 of my games, I was significantly behind on scenario when the game ended.
Overall, I've decided to move away from Sevy2 in my list pair. He has a very difficult time getting into zones and contesting, let alone gaining a scenario advantage. Also, all my chances of winning so far have hinged on a last chance assassination attempt which is not something I want to build my game plan around. If I were to play him again I would try to fit him into Exemplar theme, as I think the extra 2" of deployment would help him immensely.

Also, I know creator's provides a better backfield, but I have to go with Exemplar in pretty much all our gunlines right now. Blessed is, IMO, so much more widely applicable than a slow-ass gunline with no screen.

Thank you! I definitely agree with Exemplar themes for gunline lists. I posted by Tristan2 list in another thread, but the gist is that Blessed, True Sight guns are good with Manifest Destiny for once the forces get into melee. Back to the topic of Sevy2: My local experienced Menoth players swears by him and used the list below. I wasn't a fan of it when I played it because it was too slow. conflictchamber.com/#c2201b0X1Oc1223q3t3t3z3z3B2_3G3HProtectorate Army - 75 / 75 points (Severius 2) Hierarch Severius [+26] - Blessing of Vengeance [13] - Judicator [36] - Reckoner [16] - Hierophant [3] Vassal Mechanik [1] Vassal Mechanik [1] Vassal of Menoth [3] Vassal of Menoth [3] Wrack [1] Choir of Menoth (min) [4] Idrian Skirmishers (max) [15] - Idrian Skirmisher Chieftain & Guide [5]
