Rasheth

It partly depends on what you're trying to play into and what you're actually facing. Generally, Rasheth is a very versatile caster with many options. Some thoughts based on your list:

- Rasheth loves his guns, and his feat benefits a gunline a lot. You aren't taking advantage of this. But that's okay, because...
- Rasheth loves titan spam. This is slower, but usually durable, and the damage output is insane. They need a delivery-mechanism though, which you also don't really have...
- I love the Constructs, but think they shine better with other casters, like the Zaals. They are also the slowest things in your list, when Rasheth needs infantry jamming to safely deliver the heavy hitters.
- If you are up against gunlines, a Krea is helpful.
- If you are up against melee-based armies (hello Karchev!), then the Agonizer is awesome.

So personally, drop the constructs (Immortals, Hakaar, Ancestral), max out the Nihilators, add another Titan of choice, add Krea / Agonizer, and max out the Beast Handlers. I don't have War Room open at the moment but that should come close, or even give you a few more points for a solo like the Extoller Soulward. Also not knowing what you have, it's difficult to give more thoughts -- the last thing I want to do is make someone buy more models.

So again, the 'better' option depends on what you commonly face and you didn't say how you're losing games. I'll assume we're just building a general all-comers for now.

Reivers + UA give you some great long-range high-power high-accurate shooting. They die if you look at them funny, but nonetheless.., it's worth proxying to see if you enjoy them.

Hydra! Oh he's a lot of fun, you should find a way to put him in. Its animus adds additional urgency for your opponent to avoid using guns and engage the lines. Honestly, I'm crazy and would start with Hydra, Gladiator, Agonizer, Ferox, Rhadheim, Reivers + UA, Willbreaker ... that gives you protection as you advance forward, and a very long threat range on feat turn.


If you don't own a Willbreaker, he is one I do recommend purchasing. Puppet Master on your own models is worth the 4 points when needed. Giving Tough to your tar pit / jamming unit often buys you more time. Tough on Ferox who have Steady is hilarious. And when absolutely needed, don't forget that he can be used to force Warbeasts that have fallen beyond your Warlock's range. It doesn't come of often, but can be game-winning when it does.

Indendiari are great if you are up against infantry spam, such as some Cygnar / Mercs / Cryx / Skorne / Protectorate. They don't need to do damage, just put things on fire and let them die in the maintenance phase. Enemy warlocks hate being on fire! But Incendiari hate being shot at.

I love the concept of Accurri, but I haven't been able to playtest them. They do seem difficult to use well and a little niche.

Tiberion is pretty awesome. Expensive, but he is a great piece against board-manipulation casters (Haley2, Krueger2) and his damage output is high.

Overall, I don't think you're in a bad place with your collection and Rasheth is an easier one to learn with. He comes with Blood Mark to break armor, Breath of Corruption to help against infantry, Carnivore to improve your hitting, and Castigate to stop arc nodes and enemy animi. The others are a little more niche but useful. His feat + Blood Mark is a 4-pt swing on enemy ARM. With the Agonizer, you also force a 4-pt swing on enemy STR.

And practice. Play the same list at least 2-3 times (most people would say 5 times) and talk with your opponent afterward to see the game from their perspective. They may have ideas on what they were scared of you doing. See what pieces you like the feel of, which don't click, and adjust accordingly.

For me, as much as I recommend the Reivers and how they are generally top-notch, I personally such with any ranged unit. I'm actually looking to run Titan spam with 5 titans this weekend. I don't know if it'd be competitive, but should be fun.

What are you trying to do with your Rasheth list? He's not fast and he benefits from a very strong infantry screen but after that you're wide open on options.

Personally I would look at proxying a unit of Karax and a Cannoneer or 2. Keep the Bloodrunners, maybe add a Master Tormentor or a Willbreaker. Definitely an Extoller.

Reivers are also a great option, just not one I'm interested in until the Dakar drops.

Thanks for the input so far, I've been swamped with classwork, so away from the game for the last week. To answer, What do I want from Rasheth? Because the two lists I have run for all of my Skorne experience have been a tanky Zaadesh list with blood runners and a herd of elephants, and a tanky Xerxes1 with the hydra and cetrati, I really want to do something with Rasheth that isn't form a defensive line. I kind of hoped I could get away with running my largely neglected small based infantry with him with his 4pt arm swing, but they pretty well consistently get shot to death before they can get anywhere, and the four point swing doesn't seem to be saving the pow 13 infantry after all of those losses. And yeah, at Arm 24+ things start getting pretty hard to kill.)

Since I'm considering the winds of death, and a mammoth, can the mammoth get the swift hunter from theme, since he's a colossal? I'm looking at a list to proxy this weekend, I'm thinking:
Fragpalm,that list looks pretty solid, but
Rasheth
Aptimus Marketh (free)
Mammoth
Shaman
Dakar
Dakar
Soulward
Soulward
Willbreaker
Max Beast Handlers
Max Reivers with UA
Min Slingers
Cannon Crew
Cannon Crew (Free) (are these things any good in practice, they seem alright on paper to me, esp with Rasheth's debuffs.)

However, none of that is set in stone, because I only own Rasheth, Marketh, and the Beast Handlers, so I'm willing to hear out any suggestion.

I might try that crazy tiger cav list or something like it that Regleant suggested, since I have most of the pieces for that.

Fragpalm, I'm not sure where the bellcurve really kicks in, but I can say that I had a Hydra under Xerxes feat, Defenders Ward, and the Agonizer (Arm 25)face tank just about anything he wants to with a bit of luck. It gets obscene. Your list looks pretty solid in my, rather limited ability to assess such things. If you want the soulward, you might sacrifice one of your sentries and make him a cyclopse brute, and use the extra points for a soulward and...something
