Thyra Guardians of the Temple is our best drop. Most everything is stealthy, fast and you've got multiple attacks and ambushers - not to mention the ability to deny tough. Daughters, Flame Bringers and Cleansers will set you up nicely. I mean you'll die to nlast damage super easy

Not the kind of list I'd want to play into 5 Khador heavies, unless I could reliably strangehold 2 of them every turn...

When it comes to things like rockets, it isn't really the rocket shots that are most threatening to troops, it's the flipping 14" rifles hanging around that do the work. Those will pick off almost any infantry at rat7 with Joe.

The entire army is spd 7 or faster and stealth. Do you play on boards with terrain? In sr2017? I've played this matchup over a dozen times and Thyra does well. I suggest you put it on the table and try it.

Heck just take your same list and sub out vindictus and i think you automatically do better

I think vlad1 rocket spam is best answered in the future, with faithful masses unfortunately. This kind of thing is why PP said if they could do it again, they'd release all themes at once.
However, Paladins with girded against blasts and Monks to.....be Monks, while the artillery puts continuous fire on their rockets and force 2 tough checks while they aren't allowed to hurt the jacks puts a bit of a strain on that list. Particularly since monolith bearers b2b with paladins and surrounded by zealots is going to be something vlad will literally have no answer whatsoever for. This all functions without even saying a caster: feora 2, Durst, Harbinger, Vindictus, Kreoss 1....it's not even going to matter all that much so long as your list carries the right checkboxes.
