Ok. Did my first tournament in 2019 with TR. 1650 point list.

Thuul (10) Troop [1 US, 105 pts]

Or Maby Envoy did not have Fury (I might have given Poison Frogs to DBs, Sharpness to DH and Staying Stone to Gigas).
Anyway.
Heartpiercers did a very nice job. Steady aim and P(1) is great. It helps vs Flyers and faster lists as it suts preasure on the opponent. No easy Heal is also a thing as this chip damage can not be easly removed.
Thuul - they were a replacement for Placoderm I do not have painted yet. They would have beed better with BC in the list but were ok.
Depth Horrors - as good as always. I met only few LB and war engines and they were shooting other targets so DH were doing very well.
Gigas - TR lost all High CS units. Knuckers are not that impetous, Gigas are not so impetous either but Vicious helps. Goos unit. Anvil with a punch.
Dambusters - I wanted to take them as I have a painted horde but it was a mistake. 2nd DH horde and upgraded Thuul troop to a regiment with Sharpness would be way better (those 16,67 hits per round!) Sadly. They did poorly. Big footprint makes Fly at the double difficult (due to terrain) and 7,5 wounds a turn was not impressive. They were just super expensive for what they had to offer (and maby points were not high enough to justify a 300 point unit in my list).
Eckter - he was fine. Another shooting unit. Nice offence.
Envoy - cheap inspiring with Bastion
Siren - she does not inspire. A 130+ point hero that cast 1 spell a turn. Pre-CoK 2019 siren really but weaker.
In general TR lost a lot of Ensnare here and there. Some punch and got more expensive (which is wierd for a medium Tier army). There is still hope in a MSU lists as there are no real hammers in this army. AT ALL. So grind id the only way to go (I hope Change my mind).
In retrospect I should have taken something like this:
Naiad Heartpiercers* (10) Troop [1 US, 120 pts]
Naiad Heartpiercers* (10) Troop [1 US, 120 pts]
Thuul (10) Troop [1 US, 105 pts]
Thuul (20) Regiment [3 US, 195 pts]: 35 - Brew of Sharpness
Depth Horrors (06) Horde [3 US, 185 pts]
Gigas (06) Horde [3 US, 205 pts]
Knucker [1 US, 150 pts]
Eckter [1] [165 pts]
Naiad Envoy [75 pts]: Bastion (2) [1]
Siren [130 pts]: 30 - Shroud of the Saint, Heal (3)
