My list:
pButcher -Kodiak -Juggernaut -Marauder -War Dog Min MoW Shocktroopers Min MoW Shocktroopers MoW Drakhun Manhunter Manhunter (Tier 4)
Date: 5/29 Place: Vassal Victor: Brian (sionnach19) Loser: Tom (aetios)
Tom and I grabbed an impromptu Vassal game last night, to make up for not being at the store on Memorial Day. Instead of expanding on my Butcher gunline, I wanted to try something different (my first theme list, in fact!). Butcher brought out the heavy armor; with 102 armor 20 boxes, 48 armor 17/21 boxes, 10 armor 19 boxes, 15 armor 14 boxes, and of course 'ol Orsus himself. Tom managed to scrap the Juggernaut, but wasn't prepared for so much armor -- or Full Throttled 'jacks getting boosted tramples over his infantry hordes! It was getting late, so Tom charged in with Scaverous to get some kills and put himself in range of Butcher... three swings of Lola later, and it was game.
Thanks for the great game Tom! I really liked your list, had a good blend of everything... not sure if there's a way to get any Banes in there to help with armor, but everything else is solid!

My list:
Scaverous -Deathripper -Erebus -Skarlock Thrall Iron Lich Overseer -Seether Cephalyx Overlords 10 Cephalyx Slaver & Drudges Ragman Warwitch Siren
I came to the realization in my game with Brian last night that the Warwitch doesn't really bring as much to this list as normal. I think if my bonejack was either the Ripjaw or the Nightwretch she would, or if I was using the Desecrator instead of the Seether.
Looking back at our game Brian, I think I should have gone after the Marauder instead of Kodiak on that first turn I charged. He was about a little closer, and I think I could have gotten enough Cephalyx in to him to scrap him. That would have given me the ability to then turn on the Kodiak next turn and go to work. I really like the synergy I got with Feast of Worms and Ragman. Unfortunately the only way to add Banes in would be to drop the Overseer and his 'jack.
I really like Butcher's Tier 4 list. My list is definitely more set to handle bigger masses of light infantry, so yours is a perfect counter list. It is really hard to kill and hits like a ton of bricks. I'm not a huge fan of the Marauder jack from what I've seen, but I think he'll come in handy vs. hordes (more big beasts to slam!). Thanks for the great game!
