What do you think is our best gunline? First of all, for me Khador Gunline is 2xFun Carriage, 2x mortars, 6-9 rockets and decimators/destroyers for WJP. I also really want to squeeze 2xField Guns cause the more KD the merrier. And now speaking about casters. - Vlad1 is an obvious choice cause it's really cool to walk and reliably hit def12. SnP is just too good not to use.
- Butcher1, on the other hand, can give us an enormous amount of damage, but the whole army will struggle to hit almost everything.
- Sorcha1 and Irusk2 are also viable options, aaaand maybe OW2?

You’re really underplaying OW2 here, to me it’s either her or Vlad1. Don’t waste your time with Butcher1, his feat doesn’t compensate for his total lack of accuracy buff. Vlad1 is more offensive, offering nothing to help you’re guys live, buf offense is the best defense. It works well enough, but even with sign&portents rat5 has it’s limits. OW2 help protect hour army, and with her gun and scourge she can help fix the accuracy for the reste of the army. I prefer her to run a gunline because she helps keep your army alive and since she can blind and knockdown she can always go for a casterkill, something that’s not always an option with rat 5 dude with the other casters.

Do not discount Z1 in flames. All of the units that you really want to take have both a gun and a melee weapon. Her feat (and ghost walk) give you a very good chance of getting multiple turns of shooting. The Archon helps with getting +1 to hit and you have some neat ways of getting True sight. You probably were brining THamarcons with that load out as well. You are not going to shoot highest armor off the board - that is what effective pow 20 legion of lost souls are for ;-) (Alexia3+_Thorne+Rags+Hermit). The main question is Vigilant or resolutes since getting 3 units in and quad archons is tough.

I'm not saying Z1 Flames is bad, but it's really not what the OP is asking for, yes it has guns, but I wouldn't consider it a gunline comparable to a winterguard kommand list, Flames won't remove models with shooting the same way Vlad1 or OW2 rocket and fun carriages will.
Zerkova1 Flames is great, but it's not necessarely what people want to play for every situation.

Zerkova1 Flames is great, but it's not necessarely what people want to play for every situation. OK. Going to push back here (SLIGHTLY). Flames under Z1 can put out a ton of POW 12 and POW 13 shots. While those (obviously) are not rockets under vlad1 S&P they will put a dent in things. IN certain matchups the POW 13s will be POW 15. You also will likely (surely?) have 2 Tharmachons shoot D3 POW 14 shots with a ton of great rules - such as autodamaging clouds to disrupt advances, RFP, Deathdriver, etc. You have a Feat that SHOULD allow your shooters to keep shooting for at least an extra turn. And have ghost Walk to provide for a means of disengaging should you wish to shoot more (not sure you should but you could). You also have shield guards to keep your shooters alive. And, with fixings, you hit like a fire truck in melee. Will it shoot a jack or beast off the table? No. vlad1 does that better. But I am going to submit that it gets more shoots OFF over a game and will hit more often.
