basically I know I want medusas... and I know I want Morathi... and it seems like a cauldron of blood is an auto-take (18" range of +1 to saves for the entire army!)

yep, that's why I'm thinking the bloodwrack shrine as general...
I was originally looking at just snakes in the list, but with a 5+ save it's not like they're going to last very long without a cauldron!

High damage glass cannon. I'd almost. Consider a tanky frontline unit to ally in.
I like the snake lists though. Lots of fun and they're going to be a blast to paint.

More thoughts as I play the army:
Option 1 - more character heavy (basically have to locate another coven box set - or cauldron and witch kit)
Morathi
Bloodwrack shrine (general)
Hag queen on cauldron of blood
Hag Queen
Bloodwrack medusa
10 blood sisters
10 blood sisters
20 sisters of slaughter
advantages - more buffs, more spells, pretty cheap to finish the army
disadvantages - A little troop light - the characters can't really carry an army
Option 2 - less characters, more troopers
Morathi
Bloodwrack shrine
Hag Queen
10 sisters of slaughter
20 blood sisters
20 blood sisters
10 kinerai heartrenders
Advantages - that's a LOT of snakes for someone to have to deal with, heartrenders give a deep striking option
disadvantages - stupid expensive (would have to buy four more snake boxes and two heartrender boxes), not enough character support to buff more than one unit properly.

hmmm had an idea... but it might be more thinking it'd look cool vs. it's good:
Morathi
Bloodwrack Shrine (general)
hag queen
hag queen
10 blood sisters
10 blood sisters
10 sisters of slaughter
5 heartrenders
5 heartrenders
Allies:
assassin
assassin
War Hydra
2000 points
heartrenders can drop in on objectives and snipe things, transporting assassins along with them. the war hydra adds another close combat beast that doesn't rely on any buffs so can operate independent of the daughters. (who generally have to hang out close together)
so some utility and a monster?

maybe I'll proxy this out on Thursday to see if it's worth purchasing...
I mean at this point it's that or just more snake girls I guess... just don't really know what to do with the last 500 points of the list.

well those allies didn't work at all... assassins? really... how lackluster... couldn't even kill mauraders...

Morathi
Bloodwrack Shrine (general)
hag queen on cauldron of blood
hag queen
10 blood sisters
10 blood sisters
10 sisters of slaughter
5 heartrenders
5 heartrenders
5 heartrenders

yeah the hag queens need to be there for the buffs... it's what makes the sisters really solid
endless spell is only there because I had 20 points left over
