Hi! Returning mkii player needing a little help! Our upcoming JML allows us to pick any caster (I choose thag 2) starting with a 15 point list, then escalating by 20 points each week! What would you guys bring for week 1?

Probably typhon, a boltthrower, raek and a spellmartyr.... and a free forsaken. Do you play in theme in a jml?

Try this - I call it the Thagrosh2 Enablement Program: conflictchamber.com/#ca200faDaKaRbubbkPLegion Army - 15 / 15 points [Thagrosh 2] Thagrosh, the Messiah [+25] - Nephilim Protector [10] - Typhon [20] - Succubus [4] Blighted Nyss Shepherd [1] Warmonger War Chief [5] War chief makes Thags Mat 8, Magic 8 and Rat 6 and clear out any pesky infantry; Protector Makes Thags Def 16 in melee and the Succubus drops a cloud on him every turn to give him concealment. Typhon can facetank almost anything in the game with Dragon's blood and Excessive healing up. Shepherd is there for healing, but could also be a spell martyr for extra range on Scourge. Game plan is to initiate trades with Typhon, with good positioning to only allow 1 threat in Typhon should live, clear out with Thags and then release a healed up Typhon into the next threat, done correctly you clear out anything that can threat thags and then run the board with him. There are secondary plans that you can initiate if your opponent gives you the option: Scourge and triple Typhon Spray will deal with most pesky lights that get too close and the Typhon yo-yo (Typhon charges target, kills it and then moves back under feat) will give you a free trade if your opponent gives it too you.

I would just go with Typhon, Carnivean and 2 shepherds? You can spray and back up with feat. Set up trades like is systemdown post. But you can also use Carni for that. Not sure about your JML league rules but with stuff like Warmonger War Chieg you can have some issues when builidng for themes.

At 35 points I would play with something like typhon, carni, seraph, hellmouth, spellmartyr, shepherd.
Out of curiosity, can you make a completely new list or do you have to build on top of your 15pt list? If so, it would be good to know your 15pt army.

Have to agree with this list (but would switch a shepherd for a spellmartyr). On it's own I don't think it's all that fun but it's such a good basis for many eThags lists.

(assuming oracles of annihilation)
15 Thagrosh2 -Succubus(or Sorceress, free either way) -Carnivean -Ravagore Martyr Shepherd Forsaken
35 Add Typhon
50 Add a seraph, a forsaken(free), and a martyr.
75 Add a throne and a Naga (makes the first forsaken free), drop a martyr and shepherd, add ice witches.
