Now I am looking at my pile of Bighats and wonder what to do with them,
RH or Thommys List? Acceptance shoudn`t be a problem.

Sorcerer on Lammasu
Hobgoblin Hero on wolf
Ghazak Khan
**Chaos Dwarf Characters on foot**
Astragoth
Sorcerers
Hero with Axe 1
Hero with Axe 2
**For Units:**
37 Bighat Warriors, full command
32 Blunderbusses, full command
6 Bull Centaurs with Standard
37 Hobgoblin Warriors HW/Shield, full command
17 Hobgoblin Archer, full command

**Skink** :
First of all Core choices, you are well covered with these:
Use your Sneaky Gits to fill the ranks of your Hobbo Archers & Warriors, thus creating a 40/50 men fighting unit or a 20/30 shooting one. Look at Bas’ Blog, he used Wolf riders as unit fillers and the result looks great!!!
I see you haven’t included your 3rd edition unit in the list, why? They look great and you can use the Marauder Mage as a Prophet on foot.
Then Special:
If you connect on the website of Golem Painting Studio and check their facebook page you’ll see that they used Bighat Bull Centaurs on 40x60 bases, and although they are a bit spaced between them the unit looks great!!! Bolg did the same, check out his blog. This means that you have a nice hard hitting unit for support! It shouldn’t be difficult to convert a musician and a champion for them…
Regarding your Warmachines, I know you have a Magma cannon, why it isn’t in the list? Use the Death rocket as a rocket (really?:P) and the Earthshaker as a Hellcannon…
Characters:
Prophets, Mounts, Daemonsmiths, Khans… You have a nice collection there!!! I’d go for the usual Prophet, BSB, Daemonsmith, Khans…
As your collection of models stands right now I’d center your tactics around a Lord (Taurus?) / Bullcentaurs / Hellcannon (and eventually Blunderbusses) to dish out a lot of hurt, Hobgoblin Warriors/Archers, Infernal Guards w Hw & Sh and Death Rocket to support, and a couple of Khans to redirect.
Bolg uses a similar list and he regularly goes to tournies, check out his Blog or drop him a pm for advice :cheers

…And I just realized now that my answer hasn´t got anything to do with your question :P. Sorry :D! However if your are looking for something new and well balanced go for Thommy´s list! I tried it a couple of times and it really is funny!
It has been discussed a little bit [here](http://www.chaos-dwarfs.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=12305)
