Hey all!
I was chatting to some other Legion tournament players and we were all in the same boat of being super bored of Fyanna and her Oracles list. So much so that we stopped taking it. It's such a great list and so effective but yeah... she has more than that.
So let's throw some ideas out there! I will throw one in to start the conversation off and the ideas around them...
+Fyanna2 Precision Strike Spam*
Fyanna2 CotD
Zuriel
Nephilim Soldier x4
Warlord x2
Swordsmen plus UA x2
BFS
So you have a bunch of def16/17 models on feat turn and almost everything has precision strike to scalpel out cortexes and systems. Could have some game into Jack Spam.
Anyway, let's get away from that boring ass list!

I have been playing a Ravens Fyanna list a lot recently (I posted some battle reports in another thread), and it is way more effective than it has any business being. I am thinking about bringing it too a single list end-of-JML tournament on Saturday just because it is so fun to play. It is ultra fast, and combined with the removal of enemy AD is has a stupid strong scenario game. It can also pull the same shenanigans as the Mk.II Saeryn lists where you charge flying models over enemy units and then bank on the high defense to not take too many hits.
Also flanking grotesques that get fury hit like trucks.
Mainly it is just fun to play though. I know it looks stupid on paper, but give it a shot.

I think she needs spell Martyrs, to threaten the Gallows - even if they never use it.
Gallows gives some threat extension - which CoTD really lacks.
Fury - is great on units, which Ravens and CoTD have.
Immune to blast damage +2 arm, warrior only. Is great on the Stealth units - and Nyss (archers, Hexhunters, Swordsmen and Legionaires all like it.
Admonition - She's bound to have some beast or other.
She doesn't fix Mat or Rat, so is worth taking Mat7 beasts or high mat other stuff.
Feat - higher def stuff is better than lower def stuff.
This might be very playable.
Legion Army - 75 / 75 points

Also, Iron Flesh lets the archers group closely around the ammo porter and not worry about blast damage, which is nice.

I have only used the flying circus when a friend asked me to use the flying circus to practice for an event. The biggest thing that jumped out at me about her when she was released: Incubi.
Try a CoD list with incubi in it. It's hilarious jam on her feat turn.

Still trying this and working on swapping pieces in and out. So far I'm leaning towards dropping the deathstalkers and protector for Raptors.

As long as ur out of theme, try dropping a carnivean for proteus. His threat enhancement may be more useful than a third carnivean. |

So with the new themes I am quite interested in getting a Ravens list working with her...
Here is what I am testing. Played one game so far into Circle Devourers Host with Morv1 and a lot of infantry.
So far I have found the Neraph to be more valuable than the Angel for two reasons, sprint and 12pts. Being able to hit hard with fury and back off was excellent.
Theme: Ravens of War
