[Archive] 2500pts total Dwarf noob

Wiccus:

So this is my first list but not my first army. I have Warriors and am tinkering with HE right now. I probably wont start CD for several more months but they have definitely piqued my interest. Having the ability to be strong in all 4 phases of the game is amazing. There are some solid mobility options and redirectors as well as devastating war machines and magic and a respectable combat beat down. So I am going to try my hand at this army.

Some of the following list is definitely a lot of what you will find posted around the interwebs but I typically tend to use the old net listing crutch when I am new to an army and then build my own style as my games progress.

Please, tear it apart or heap endless praise upon what is likely my total unoriginality.

Game plan is simple enough. I intend to be mildly aggressive with my big dwarf block that will be accompanied by my BSB and general but keep them back far enough that I can guard my war machines. Lvl 2 chills with the guns, Khans and raiders provide harassment and redirection, bows and glaives kill annoying chaff and protect the cannons that will be doing what cannons do, and the centaurs and totally OP Destroyer that I feel bad for taking provide the necessary flanking and beatdown.

Thoughts from any of you vets?

Blackspine:

Looks fun!

similar to my list.

You’re good on core, maybe too much?



If you took the pts from the DS and Hobos (or FGs) you could afford a BC Taruk.

That guy can bring some pain, as well as something that can actually fight.

Just tossing it out there.

Time of Madness:

Not much to tear apart here. You have many of the best options for characters and have taken most of the better units available.

One thing I like to do is put the lichbone pendant on the infernal guard assuming your sorcerer/bsb are going in that unit. Gives them a better ward save vs magic snipes (ie death magic).
