Dominar Rasheth Theme Force

If they ever update warroom with the new releases like they are supposed to I'll be able to double check this and correct any mistakes.

You can take
Skorne warbeasts with ranged weapons. Light Artillery units, Paingiver beast handlers, Praetorian units, Tyrant Commander & Standard Bearer, Agonizers, Tyrant Rhadeim, Siege Animantarax.

Tier1 - Reduce the points cost of huge based models by 1

Tier2
Army includes one or more Tyrant model/units and one or more light artillery model/units
Light Artillery units gain advance move

Tier 3
Army includes one or more Siege Animantaraxs
Siege Animanatarx begin the game with 3 rage tokens (that's max)

Tier4
Army includes one or more Mammoths
roll two dice pick your highest for the starting roll

The witch coven theme force they released last no quarter managed to take a lot of the less good models for Cryx and with points reductions and other bonuses make them quite good. This list does not do that. That said it's not terrible. A siege animantarax at 8 points with +3 strength and the ability to boost the tail is playable. The mammoth is amazing although you can't take a gladiator to increase its speed, and the points increase is mitigated by the fact that you have to take a light artillery piece. It's a struggle to fit in two mammoths at 50 points as well, even if you take a minimum cost Tyrant and Artillery crew you end up with only 4 points for support which is a problem when you really want a Krea, paingiver beast handlers, a cyclops raider and an agonizer. You could probably get by on paingivers and an agonizer though. It's a shiny turd but I think it's still a turd.

I feel like the whole purpose of this list is to troll Jake Van Meter and Will Pagani who have said that will buy a Siege Animantarax to anyone that beats them with one. They threw down this challenge on the 2nd of January and this is coming out suspiciously close to that.
