I believe that last year’s ETC rules limited an army to 4 warmachines and the Bale Taurus’s breath weapon and K’daai Destroyer counted against that tally. If that’s the case, then you’re likely going to have to take a Magma Cannon off the table. With your new found points, consider upgrading a magma cannon to dreadquake w/ogre or hellcannon. Either of those will fit within the cost of 2 magma cannons (the one you’re upgrading + the one you’re dropping due to comp) and leave you room for a Khan on Wolf with Dragonbane Gem, light armor, and shield.
You also have 37 points remaining, so why not swap the mask of the furnace for the Talisman of Protection plus Dragonhelm and Other Trickster’s Shard? That should still leave you under your Lord % while leaving you room for a Dispell Scroll on one of the Daemonsmiths.
As for your core, I’d drop a unit of Fireglaives and get two units of 20 Hobgobs with bows. Provides you with more bodies and some fodder. That’s 180 points total, but I think you’ll have the 10 points available without dropping anything else.
Finally, with no BSB you should take the gleaming pennant on your big block of IG. You’re going to want that emergency re-roll.
Those 30 infernal guard are gonna need a BSB, gleaming pennant or a daemon smith with crown of command. I would be afraid they ran otherwise. And if your opponents know how to counter your destroyer that regiment will be needed.
But besides that - fielding three magma cannons sure will be a wonder to look upon. Sooo much lava!
The first chaos dwarf rule says Destroyer/Warmachines/Hell cannon (max 1). Does that mean you can only have 1 of each?

Time of Madness
Max 4 of them but max 1 hellcannon.
Example : 3 warmachines+destroyer : ok.
2 warmachines+destroyer+hellcannon : ok
prophet death+destroyer+hellcannon+2warmachines : not ok.
Far better comp (for us) this year than the last one.
1 K’daai Destroyer, 325 pts (Blazing Body; Bound Fire Daemons; Burning Bright; Causes Terror; Flaming Attacks; Immune to Psychology; Large Target; Unbreakable; Unstable)
