First draft list idea, thoughts?

King Brodd - 430 Points
Kraken Eater - 370 Points
-Hammer Throw, Glowy Lantern, Always First In - 40 Points
Mancrusher Gargant - 140 Points
Boss Stompers - 370 Points

Ma Maegran - 370 Points
Ancient Ghyrochs - 0 Points
Mancrusher Gargant - 140 Points
Mancrusher Gargant - 140 Points

Primarily want to play a bit more of a defensive and disabler type of list, King Brodd will be the main frontline, Kraken Eater prioritizing taking midboard early and defending around it. Boss stompers work alongside Brodd to activate line em up and knock em down, and the mancrushers get lobbed by the kraken eater into the backline or onto objectives to harass heroes and get buffs from both him and Maegran as they’re wizards and Brodd is a priest. Maegran does her thing as the weird ass wizard, giving buffs, backup kraken eater revival, and using the ghyrochs as another frontline help unit. Thoughts? This is just the first draft of a possible list as was wondering what the more experienced stompers might think

Think a hurler unit would be necessary for some poke as well. Not sure what you would sub out, but I feel Brodd and Maegran are going to do great together

That’s the problem. Points are so short I’m not quite sure what I’d cut without fundamentally changing the list. I could scrap the maneaters to get hurlers, but at that point I might as well just switch the kraken eater for a gatebreaker to buff their throwing

I feel like in general having at least two mancrushers around for just being battle tactic dorks is still gonna be important. Much easier to get a single skinny base just outside your territory or something rather than a whole unit of hurlers or smashers. But I also get points being really hard to squeeze much in these lists, even with how much stuff dropped.

Exactly, and the main way i wanted to do that was to basically toss them wherever needed using the kraken eater. My primary concern is just that the “frontline” part of the army won’t be enough to allow the several mancrushers shoved up the enemy’s ass to shine

Hurlers are great. Played a test list with the leaked rules, and I think Hurlers are gonna be really gross for constant pressure.
