This is my ongoing band. My reinforce team took some changes and now it looks like this.
2
Zungar Bodyguard
3
Runetag Brawler
Clawclan Scout (Will be 2 whenever I get a second)
4
Virtuous Maiden
Arch de' Triumph
5
Falcon Soldier
Twilight Scout
Knight of Tommorow
6
2x Eagle Feather Warrior
Lunar Handmaiden
7
Hawk-eyed Instigator
8
Whirling Dervish
9
Raging Vanguard (teh aw350m3)
10
Steelborn Griffon
12
Noble Dragon
The little guy at 2 actually really works out even as a defender. Clawclan is the awesome. Maiden is great during the early game. My low number of high cost guys helps with her as I can spawn a good 5-6 cost piece and use her. The arch gets my seal of approval most definetly. When I can spawn 2-3 guys in my 4 cell that is awesome.
Knight, Twilight, and Falcon are all the same and all serve good rolls in my army.
I dropped down to 2 Eagle Feathered after some tweaking. Lunar Handmaiden still rocks.
Hawkeyed Instigator is awesome.
Dervish I've been somewhat dissapointed with, but hasn't hurt me yet.
Ragin Vanguard is nuts because when he comes out you cannot ignore his presence as he can simply go where he wants and take a cell. He is a keeper.
Griffon still unleashes big piles of whoop-ass so he is awesome. Going where he wants it always good.
Noble Dragon wins games.
Thats my build. Comments or critiques welcome.

It's a good build. If you get 2 Clawclan scouts, you could stand to replace the Knight of tomorrow as well as the brawler. They serve the same role and downgrading the scout will give you +2 spawn to bring out a higher point guy who does something different. Plus you'll be able to get out several in the first couple of turns and rock the maiden to a better degree. That's if you get two more, which I'm sure you will eventually. I'm also not super keen on your falcon -- I think I'd rather have a second hawk eyed, especially so you are sure to have one ready when dragon comes online. The crit doesn't do it for me as much, especially if you can trade it for more attack dice and a better ability. But then I'm a big fan of mobility.
My $.02,

I would love 2 more Clawclan Scouts. They would make my day. Replacing the knight is a better choice too, since he really doesn't do too much. The falcon soldier is the awesome and always comes through in a pinch. He may not seem too good but hes just cool. Another HawkEyed is good too, but we shall see where a few more boosters takes me. I still fell I'm lacking midrange beef, but its not like theirs alot in the 4-7 range for Valor.

Yep. At least not outside the rare slots. Hawkeyed is the best of the bunch in that range for commons and uncommons. Well, maybe except for kitsune. Hmm... Kitsune...  I know how you love that foxy lady! Z |

Daves NEW BAND for the 1K.
1 Zungar Blademaster
2 Clawclan Scouts
1 Pearlthorn Castle
1 Arch de Triumph
1 Scarab Warcharm
1 Knight of Tomorrow
1 Falcon Soldier
1 Lunar Handmaiden
2 Eagle Feather Warrior
1 Hawkeyed Instigator
1 Brighthammer Avenger
1 Raging Vanguard
1 Angel
1 Noble Dragon
This army gives me a great deal of movement during the spawn phase and during combat. I am able to go where I want and spawn where I want. I test ran it vs lumpy with some help from Chris Wilson and my test run proved fruitful. Future testing will be needed this week but I am hopeful.
Only changes I will be making is probly -1 Falcon Soldier for +1 Scarab Warcharm or +1 Castle. Not sure though. All help welcome!

Wait.. Where is the kitsune? And where'd you get a charm?!

I borrowed the Charm for now, I may be able to borrow another. The Kitsune is NOT going in this army. It is not Kitsune beats. This army is all about the movement and being able to deal with everything equally. The Brighthammer is there because I can abuse my movement to make him REALLY effective to the point where a Kitsune does the same thing. The armies strength lies in movement to where it can be anywhere on the board/establish presence anywhere with castle/arch/handmaiden/adcance/skirmish. The movement is so high NOT putting in a Brighthammer seemed almost foolish and it paid off. The real question is does this need a second castle or a second charm, or something else? Falcon Soldier is just filler at this point. But he is the man...

I like second charm better than second castle. Three locations is a bit much as you'll be down figures. Plus, the charm enables the movement effects that you'll be needing anyway.

Also -- do you have an angel? They work particularly well getting things where they need to be. They are also excellent at swinging the hammer. Might be worth at least considering over the dragon (although dragon is great anti-drake)
