Hi all,
Here is my first attempt at a CD army list. It is meant to play (predominantly) against my brothers armies, Brets, Lizards, DoW, Empire and Beasts. However it may be needed to fight other people as I may take it into tournaments.
Anyway without further ado:
Chaos Dwarf Lord.
Armour of Gazrakh
Great Weapon
Chaos Dwarf Sorcerer
Level 2
Dispel Scroll
Chaos Dwarf Sorcerer
Level 2
Dispel Scroll
20 Chaos Dwarf Warriors
Full Command
20 Chaos Dwarf Warriors
Full Command
20 Chaos Dwarf Warriors Lord goes here
Full Command
Great Weapons
12 Chaos Dwarf Warriors Sorcerer goes here
Blunderbusses
12 Chaos Dwarf Warriors* Sorcerer goes here
Blunderbusses
20 Hobgoblins
Shields
20 Hobgoblins
Shields
12 Hobgoblins
Bows
Death Rocket
Death Rocket
2 Hobgoblin Bolt Throwers
5 Bull Centaurs
Full Command
Warbanner
Earthshaker Cannon
This come to 2008 points (ok in friendly games)
For an additional 250pt Upgrade I will buy the new miner box and make it CD warriors with great weapons and full command, exactly 250pts
Tactics for the list:
The Artillery stay at the back, protected by the Hobbo Archers. Meanwhile the rest of the army advances with Blunderbusses on the flanks. The set up for the advancing block would look something like this:
BBs Hobbos CDWs CDWs w/GW CDWs Hobbos BBs
The hobbos and CDW may swap as the hobs need the generals leadership
The Bull Centaurs will also be placed on a flank to go mage/warmachine/small missile unit hunting but as this will change I have not put it up there.
Oh, also an explanation for the Sorcerers going with the BBs:
Basically the sorcerers will take Fire and Death Magic (destructive) and in the magic phase are able to cast on any significant units within range, then in the shooting phase the BBs can finish them off/severely injure them and cause damage to units around them. They are perfect on the flanks to counter skirmishers, (fast) calvary and anything else as they are in 3 ranks therefore shooting at Strength 5 ( )
What do you think?
:cheers
