Krawat's Cryx Musings

At that point level there will be very few answers to incorporeal models. So i would suggest a Machine wraith with a soul trapper With only a couple jacks on the board the value of the wraith goes up as the opponant can afford less shenanigans with his jacks. They can also contest senarios while the test of your army does work. It can also help protect your stalker if you pair them together. Enemy jacks are less likely to try and engage of the wraith is near. the soul trapper is just there to deny enemies from gathering friendly souls, a point fill, and the attack that kills it means that attack didnt kill a bane or witch. which is vastly more valuable.

For that Theme list i would argue youd be better off removing that 3rd min squad in favor of maxing out rifle attachments and a machine wraith. You only loose 2 shots and gain 4 Assassination/solo removal shots. It would also increase the staying power of the 2 squads as they are. My earlier arguement earlier of lower points equals higher model value would have you seeing hige dividends if you can safely take out support pieces.

For that skarre list you may want to try dropping the defiler. Backlash is pretty much a gimmick for models that dont have feedback naturally. hellfire and bloodrain will be situational at best. I think you could have some success in running the skarlock, (2) sets of scrap thralls and either a second machine wraith or a necrotech to keep the inflictor healed up. With the skarlock and scrap thrall boat pSkarre can gain 1d6 focus every turn with no focus investment from herself. Really handy when you need to load up the inflictor and stalker on feat turn and still cast dark guidence. Any left over she can camp or heal he feat damage in later turns.

Putting a single rifle in a unit is basically downplaying their strengths as you can't CRA. Every unit should always have at least 2, so I second the notion to drop the third unit in favour of more guns and Incorporeal models. Downgrading the Nightwretches to Deathrippers can also net you some more points.

Double stalkers ks fun with skarre1. You should playtest the double stalkers list and then the focus effecient boat i suggested. I personally feel focus starved with skarre 90% of the time if i dont bring the skarlock. And at this point level its hard to add in war witch sirens to help.
