So I am the proud owner of the Trollbloods half of the 2 player battlebox. Just built it and it's awesome.
Ragnor is a powerful 'lock and I can't wait to get him painted and on the board. Are there any battle pointers other than popping feat bottom of one or top of two to tank the alpha strike and pummel them back.
Also I wanted the UA for the Fennblades as my next purchase. Is this wise? This of course over getting a Mauler as I'm being a good daddy and sticking to my budgeted allowance as to preserve debt free status.
Thank you all for your wisdom.

The Fenn UA is critical to proper function of the unit, so go for it. The other thing that will crank his fear up to eleven is the krielstone, and I might put that before the mauler, too, but that one is a hard call. If you get frustrated with armor breaking, get the mauler first.
Marty the tough die always be slightly in your favor.

Popping feat on the bottom of 1 sounds a bit too early in my ears. Unless our opponent has a super fast or super shooty list, bottom of 2 or top of 3 sounds more realistic. Sure, your fennblades might be able to charge on the second turn, but you probably should not feat to keep them alive. Feating on the turn that they will try and kill your beasts, now that is where it is at.
Fennblade UA is mandatory, if you are going to play them at all. Mauler is also mandatory in basically every list. I would go for the Mauler first, cause he enables the rest of your list.

Just picked up Fennblade UA. I need 5 more points to play at my casual level here at my stores casual level. I was thinking the Kithkar to boost the Fenns even higher and I honestly love the model so much.

The Kithkar model is super cool, but the Fell Caller is probably a better model to own since it is more versatile. You will probably use it in more lists.

As Trollock says the fell caller is probably the better model to pick up. For 1 point more you get more options like a better hit boost and a ranged attack

Fennblade Kithkar and the UA leader look cool and Ragnor is a freaking boss. The Fell Caller looks like he took a shot of Menoth's fury to the face and the Fennblades stomped the flames out.
I still bought him and am in the process of painting a 25pt force.

I just dont put the torch on his back. It helps out the model aesthetic a lot
