Have A tournament coming up where I plan to run my Skorne.

My first list will be a xexis Infantry list.

Xerxis1
Tiberion
Gladiator
Krea
Agonizer
Max Cetrati with Vorkesh
Max Praetorian Karax
TyCom and Standard
min beast handlers
Paingiver Master tormentor
extoler Soulward

A bunch of quick shield wall dudes who can layer damage and defensive buffs to help deliver tibbers.

Now I'm just wondering what other caster would pair well here. I was thinking of a morghoul1 beast brick or maybe Rasheth with a titan herd. What would you guys recomend?

Just a heads up I don't own any ferox so Makeda2 is out lol.

I'm a bit curious why you did karax instead of say swordsmen or reviers. Theye seem better for putting out damage. You might be able to drop the tycom then depending on your reasoning for including him and that would help you get the CA for whichever unit.

I'm also a bit confused on how the cetrati and karax would deliver tibbers as he is a large base and can be seen for shooting purposes.

Deliver Tibbers mostly meant making the cetrati being big and scary enough that my opponents would focus on them before trying to take out tibbers.

Don't have swordsman and I never really thought about using reviers as xerxis doesn't really do much to support them.

The karax and tycom were realy just there to be a self sufficient module jam the other zone in two zone scenarios.

He doesn't really support them, but he does let them hide behind and shoot through a shield wall, and that's kind of nice.

Xerxis is kind of a slow, reactive caster, so morgoul would be a good pairing by being fast and dynamic. He would do well into lists with tempo feats and lists that deny orders.
