...But you just have to try it?
Behold.
Protectorate Army - 73 / 75 points [Theme] The Faithful Masses
(Reznik 1) High Executioner Servath Reznik [+28] - Reckoner [16] - Redeemer [11] - Revenger [10] - Scourge of Heresy [16] Deliverer Arms Master [3] High Paladin Dartan Vilmon [0(6)] Paladin of the Order of the Wall [4] Paladin of the Order of the Wall [4] Taryn di la Rovissi, Llaelese Gun Mage [5] Choir of Menoth (min) [4] Deliverer Skyhammers (max) [13] Idrian Skirmishers (max) [15] - Idrian Skirmisher Chieftain & Guide [0(5)] [Edit] Wrack [1] Wrack [1]
Game plan Taryn shots intervening models. Revengers moves up. Reznik activates and damages something with Perdition to move the revenger even further if needed. Pops feat to remove all resources from the enemy caster. Arcs brand of heresey onto said caster. Reckoner goes first for flare. Then... all the rockets.
Battle makes for a pow 16 reckoner shot and 3 pow 14 from the redeemer. All of those boosted makes for a scary potential amount of damage.
Arms Master is there to grant arcing fire for the redeemer for shenanigans or if Taryn can't do her job. Paladins are to hold flags/zones. Choir is choir. Idrians are hopefully going to set the line of engagement.
Thanks to HoV even the gun redeemer can put out pow 17 mat 8 melee swings. Scourge's damage potential is, well, heresey. It's just bonkers. Ignite would likely start on idrains. But a Pow 22 purgation, and BoH, damage potential is unreal IF it gets to happen... I'm looking at you stormwalls.

As a diehard Reznik1 fan, might I suggest using the Reckoner to flare before Reznik activates? It can be hard to land his spells against more agile casters.

HoV no longer works on light jacks though in the theme. It only affects heavy jacks.
I do really like Deliverers now, but they don't seem to syngergize with Reznik 1 beyond his feat. What about using another Redeemer in place of the Deliverers to gain more benefit from Brand of Heresy?
I've played a few games with Reznik 1 and 4 Redeemers and it was pretty hilarious and rage inducing for some opponents. Wasn't always the best list, but it was a lot of fun.

I've played a few games with Reznik 1 and 4 Redeemers and it was pretty hilarious and rage inducing for some opponents. Wasn't always the best list, but it was a lot of fun. and here I was operating this whole time under the assumption Redeemers were heavy jacks. I guess if I had bought one yet I would know better. (Or read the icon in war room. since that's now a thing.) Reckoner before the spell is always an option yes. Just depends on the numbers needed. I'm not sure about another redeemer. One getting off good shots I think is enough of a gamble. The deliverers can at least CRA to a better RAT. If anything I'd want to round out the melee better. Idrians and Scrouge might not be enough. Even without HoV I think lights could do some legit work against branded targets. Pow 15 with battle, fully boosted, up to 5 attacks with 2 side steps and parry? That's pretty fantastic. If I put in Derivh(es) I would drop the arms master and try to fit in a vassal or gatekeeper. Also the last two points should be filled in with Wracks. That was a mistake re-creating the list in conflict chamber to copy+paste

Also might be worth playing with the jack marshal abilities, but then again Reznik wants the battle group.

No matter how I theorycraft him, I ALWAYS end up in interdiction. Blessed warjack guns are just too good to pass up for him IMO.

Sounds like how I build pretty much all my lists.
