Hey I might play in an event - help me list build

So my actual table time has been way down lately due largely to having to deal with real life instead of just playing warmens (boo!!), but it looks like I'll be able to make it to a local SR next month.  I may or may not get any games in before then so let's build some lists and see how we do.  As far as opponents I am very likely to see Cygnar, Skorne, Legion, Cryx, and Circle.

I've decided that I am likely to run either Issyria/Thyron or Issyria/Vyros1 as my pair.

I'd love to get some feedback on which pair to run and thoughts on my first look at the lists.  I'm happy to make some changes particularly with Vyros1.  I have a lot of games in with Issyria in shadows and similar Thyron lists but relatively few with Vyros1.

Quick Update

I've started to add a list section to the blog.  It is sorted by caster as they appear in war room in the drop down menu on the right.  I'm hoping to be able to aggregate interesting lists in one place that is a little bit easier to find.  My goal is to put some brief thoughts about the caster and then add lists.  For lists that I've hijacked from elsewhere I'll do my best to credit where I saw them.  For lists that I've been working on I'll try to add some brief thoughts. Currently Rahn is the only one that is formatted how I think I want this set up.  If anyone has recommendations for formatting please let me know

I have a problem

Bonus post because I want to impress y'all with my content generation capabilities ☺(just kidding I just had another topic to write about) So like it says in the title...I have a problem.  I love Destors.  Love them.  I love the look of the unit as the models are great and every time I look at the card and always think these should do something right?  So on occasion I dust off my Destors and try to find a list for them that I think really works. The most recent time I read through the Destor card I noticed that the Dawnguard don't really have a defining rule.  Think something like how pretty much all the Banes have ghostly or Trenchers have tough.  I had the opportunity to mention this to Mr. Will Pagani and ask (somewhat jokingly) if Destors should have Wall of Steel like Invictors and Sentinels both do.  His response was along the lines of an argument could be made that Wall of Steel is a defining feature of Dawnguard but it would be quite the...

So in the post ATC discussions about Ret a lot of interesting points were brought up so I decided to sit down and attempt to do a write up of my thoughts regarding the current state Ret in a competitive sense. I should note that this might get a little long and my goal isn’t to stir up a big salt storm or anything. For some background I enjoy playing Ret even though I think it suffers from some substantial issues. There are a lot of elements of the faction that I enjoy and I am not shelving the faction or anything like that. I’m also going to try to focus my thoughts on the idea that a “competitive sense” means bringing Ret to a major event (team or solo) with a focus on making it to the second day with a serious idea of winning the overall event. I don’t intend to play down local events or anything but I think there is such a variance in local metas and individual skill levels that it makes sense to focus this discussion on being successful in the latter parts of bigger events wh...
