Hello everybody. I bought my first Skorne model around the time Mk3 was launched but never really started the faction. 2019 is here so it's time to change that. So anyway. As a primary troll player I like warbeasts and am sad that I can't play them there and the Skorne ones are the coolest so.
I got a bunch of used stuff and then I decided to purchase a few things that I thought I needed and then I built my first list with Makeda3.
Skorne Army - 75 / 75 points
[Theme] Imperial Warhost
[Makeda 3] Makeda & the Exalted Court [+25]
- Archidon [10]
- Basilisk Krea [0(7)]
- Bronzeback Titan [17]
- Cyclops Brute [8]
- Cyclops Raider [9]
- Cyclops Shaman [8]
- Molik Karn [19]
- Reptile Hound [4]
- Titan Gladiator [15]
- Aptimus Marketh [0(5)]
Mortitheurge Willbreaker [0(4)]
Paingiver Beast Handlers (min) [5]
Paingiver Beast Handlers (min) [5]
I went on and played this twice. Once into a CoC Locke list where my noobiness made me loose to much time causing me to make a couple of mistakes which led to me loosing on scenario in the end. The next game was vs Jaga Jaga. I was up on attrition and on scenario, but apparently Signs and Portens = at least 11 on two dice so I got assassinated. After this experiment was over I realised I'm not gonna be able to get a second unit of beast handlers in time for an upcoming event (I was proxying) so decided to change things up.

- Aptimus Marketh [0(5)]
Mortitheurge Willbreaker [0(4)]
Paingiver Beast Handlers (max) [7]
This I've only gotten to play once vs Old Witch1 in which Makeda survived a futile assassination attempt. The old witch did not care for the retaliation.
Anyway. How's your experience of playing only a max unit of handlers with this amount of beasts? Is it my inexperience that causes turns to take long time just for the point of managing fury? Do you guys get a lot of use out of the bronzeback's leadership? I've seen a lot of people using Zaadesh with Mak3. Why is that?
Also, how horribad is it to combine this list with something like this:
Skorne Army - 75 / 75 points
[Theme] Masters of War
[Makeda 2] Supreme Archdomina Makeda [+27]
- Basilisk Krea [7]
- Cyclops Shaman [8]
- Molik Karn [19]
- Aptimus Marketh [0(5)]
Ancestral Guardian [0(5)]
Extoller Soulward [3]
Hakaar the Destroyer [0(6)]
Swamp Gobber Chef [1]
Cataphract Arcuarii (max) [17]
Cataphract Incindiarii (max) [17]
Cataphract Incindiarii (max) [17]
Paingiver Beast Handlers (max) [7]
Tyrant Commander & Standard Bearer [6]
(These two lists contains all I own except an agonizer, X1, Z1 and one more AG)
