I've been playing around with this a little on Fly Casual and I'm uncertain if it is actually alright or simply a weird box of random bits. If it's the latter then it really just goes in the bin.

Kestal is undone by his/her lack of mods, living on pure variance. Putting Ruthless on her/him is obviously daft in this list... I reckon. Trick Shot? Soontir and Rex are fine ofc.

I think one of my problems is that while Soontir flanks and Rex brawls, Kestal doesn't know which party to join. If Rex brawls alone, he dies. If Kestal joins him, she dies. If Kestal joins Soontir, they both die. However, if Rex draws the aggro and lives, it seems to have legs. As long as Kestals dice are decent. On Fly Casual, it's elementary to force target priority on the AI with range control and just melt everything, so it's really no test at all.

Not looking for top tier btw, just something that will do an alright job on the table.

Would you tweak or bin?

Give Kestal just the ICT, and throw on 5th brother and LW so she has the mods she needs!

Joust with Rex, flank with Fel and Kes from opposite sides

Liking the sound of that. Was wary of putting too many points on Kestal and was aiming to bid Fel but hey, I like a nice round 200 :D
