Marcus
5 Soul Stones
Sabretooth
Silurid
Silurid
Silurid
Moleman
Moleman

or

Marcus
4 Soulstones
Sabretooth
Myranda
Silurid
Silurid
Silurid

I like the first because I have a couple options with the different models. I think the Moleman would be useful for moving up while tunneling to prevent being torn to piecies from ranged and such. The silurids would work as a pack and Marcus and the Sabretooth would companion up and try to stick together.

The second list takes out the molemen and a stone to put Myranda in. Myranda gives some options to replace missing models (turning to a sabretooth or silurid) should one die too early and also offers additional heals.

I like both lists and plan to try them out in the next couple days.

I like the second list, only purely from the flexibility that Myranda gives you to turn into what you need for whatever situation arises. Both lists look pretty good though.

I am still trying to wrap my head around Myranda. My fear with her is her inabilty to change back.

For instance, I don't see any (0) abilities on the Razorspine Rattler and it does not have the ability to cast shapechange...so does she get stuck in this form?

she gets a (0) ability to revert to original form (don't have rule book with me) that she can also use, then cast shapechange into another critter as Myranda.

I was hoping that was right! Cool.

So, does that mean she can use the (0) cost abilities of the beasts without reverting?

I don't care for Myranda because it takes an action to change, and cards out of your hand, and when I used her, I needed a new beast, but I needed it fully charged at that time. Next turn would either be too late or just not really needed.

Only one game with the Chimera tho.

I like the second list. A lot better but I would try to get one moleman. Maybe by going down to 2 slurids. As far as the Myranda discussion, I usualy shapechane first turn and use her as a rattler (sometimes walgeists) first turn and just use her as that beast until I need something she has in late game.
