Quick break down of the models used.
Castellans - Big hat hero’s (2 different models, one converted with bsb)
Daemonsmith - Big hat wizard
Infernal Guard - Big hats with hand weapon/shield
Centaurs - Centaurs
Shriekers - Death Rockets
Dreakquake - earthshaker
Without converting anything it leaves me a bit limited unless I start investing in hobgoblins. Alternatively I could drop a unit of guard and pick up a couple of units of hobgoblins. Not sure which approach I like better at this point in time.
The plan is to use a unit of centaurs as a flanking force for each guard unit. The smith hangs back near the dreadquake to make it useful.
I would free some points in order to get the Daemonsmith a lvl 2, perhaps by axing one of the Bull Centaurs. In my own opinion an extra spell and +1 to cast/dispel goes underestimated by too many people.

I appreciate the comments.
I'd actually love to make him level 2, I just don't have the hero points. I'm capped out at 500pts for hero and am pretty close to that.
I'd have to give up some protective gear on my general/bsb to make my smith a level 2.
So for the time being I'll keep the smith cheap and hope that he helps out the dreadquake a bit.
Dragonhelm , Warrior Bane , extra for the Daemonsmith.
So he do magical attacks
He already has magical attacks thanks to his ensorceled hand weapon...
For bull centaur unit 1 the Banner of Eternal Flame
For bull centaur unit 2 the Banner of Swiftness .
Only one unit with magic standard (the same with IG).
Ensorceled shield on your level 1.
Standard of discipline on the IG.
One Ld test reroll standard on one unit of BC.
You can put the extra level on your level 1 with only dragon helm on the BSB. And I'll get the ironcurse icon on one of the characters.
