well during my first 4 games with chaos dwarves i figured that we really lack deployment and we are always outnumbered so i figured we should fix that since we need proper deployment to win the game
cannons- rockets should be placed correctly to do what they do best kill things
i also figured that 2x20-25 IG for core isnt doing a lot
lvl4 although our lore is great in my opinion isnt so great for the suckness of the prophet what i mean… lvl4 for 300pts with no equipment? simply…NO
so this is my list hope you like it
feedback appreciated :hat off
592pts
2x deamonsmiths lvl2 ( one metal- one death )+obsidian lodestone

Edited by Nicodemus - please don’t list points costs for individual models/units, it can get us into trouble Thanks.
Probably the most competitive list I’ve seen so far.
I would personally try to fit in a Hellcannon so you have something else to protect the other war machines (you’re a bit low on combat units) and also threaten STanks at range (I know you have Lore of Metal, but its nice to have multiple options).
I’m considering biting the bullet and going for 40 IG with great weapons… that’s the entire Core requirement at 2400pts :sick but they will RUIN things (especially with Breath of Hatred/Glittering Robe/Enchanted Blades). It may seem like madness but its much scarier than 2 crappy units of 25 with hand weapons, and considering the height of our war machines and true LoS, the unit can just sit in front of them. With a tanked Castellan BSB in the unit too, they should be maximised for breaking faces. Just don’t say ‘Gateway’…
I’m not keen on small units of IG. I’d put the two smaller units into a bigger unit. I’d also have champions in the unit(s) where the characters sit to accept challenges on their behalf.
Full command isn’t worth it on the smaller bull centaur unit. Maybe a standard if you wanted a magical banner (which you don’t) or a champion if you want to challenge a character.
Thanks.
