Hey guys!

Been playing a few games with my chaos dwarfs, and the destroyer has been magnificent! BUT! Its time to try something different.

Tell me what you think!

Looks fairly solid.

I’m not a fan of the iron daemon in competitive lists as mine tends to get dealt with fairly easily by most opponents.

Are you planning on hording the cutthroats or deploying them 5X10? It may be worth dropping the flaming banner and picking up the banner of slavery if you plan on keeping the guard near the hobgoblins.

At 2400pts I’d try to add some extra guard to the unit, they are to small at only 22. Try to get them closer to 30 strong with characters.

Hope that helps.

Gammal:

Thanks for the reply.

Why is Irondeamon not good? Looks solid to me… Did we discuss this in another thread?

well, the guards are few, I agree.

But! The banner of Slavery seems unnecessary when I have ld 10 and a BSB nearby anyways.

The squad is 23 strong, its my AB removes 1 dwarf for the champion, so its actually 25 with characters, wich should be enough? Or do I still need to add more?

I could go back about 10 Hobos and remove the khan to add a few more guards.

Thoughts?

Looks fine. I would rather have a destroyer than 6 fireborn, though. also note you can’t use your shield on your battle standard in combat as he has a great weapon.

You might want to consider splitting the hobbos into two units of 20 then they can fire at diffeent targets if needs be; or leave one lot to guard your warmachines (not that the hellcannon needs guarding…).
