Let me know if you like it.

Northkin Fire Eaters - Leader, Trollkin Grunt, and Pyg Grunt: 7

The list would be post cid. So mulg would be 22 but rok would only be 19. In my opinion the the meta will shift to more infantry and fire eaters should be nice to handle them.

Looks pretty good. I am pretty interested in something similar with Doomy 2. Rök is so damned good with him...

Still, giving up ~8 free points is an issue. Remember that PoD can also bring a unit now, so you could bring a bit more anti infantry tech even in PoD...

Their are several reasons I am looking at sotn theme. The changes to pod are not good for doomy3. The opportunity in minions is good but I do not find a good solution which helps clearing infantry and helping to avoid a list chicken pairing.
In my opinion the biggest problem we gave with trolls is that we often good a list chicken and even our favourable match-up is not as good as our bad ones are negative.

Switching to sotn we loose two shamans. We are able to play fire eaters which help to drop Doomy3 in way more matchups then before (remember that one scroll of doomy gives additional dice to hit). We got access to rok (primal) which if he stays at 19 points is a really good piece.

So we have to compare loosing two free point shamans to be able to play rok and fire eaters.

The real loss might be Janissa. Is there a particular reason for Doomy 3 as opposed to any other warlock? Do you have a particular strategy in mind?
