[Archive] First army list (2,500)

yochanan:

Hi folks, I have not played warhammer for sometime and this is my first stab at an army list for the chaos dwarfs (recently came into some infernal guard models), so please let me know what you think. Cheers-Y.

Total Points = 2,496

Lord (375)
1 Sorcerer Prophet, level 4, death, Talisman of Preservation, Enchanted Shield, Earthling Rod= 375

Hero (430)
1 Hobgoblin Khan on Wolf, light armor = 54
1 Hobgoblin Khan on Wolf, light armor = 54
1 Infernal Castellan, BSB, Shield, Mask of the furnace = 197
1 Demonsmith Sorcerer, level 1, death, dispel scroll, charmed shield = 125

Core (626)
28 Infernal Guard, FC, Razor Standard = 413 (Castallan & Sorcerer go here)
21 Hobgoblins, Bows, muso = 109
20 Hobgoblins, Bows, muso = 104

Special (530)
6 K’Daai Fireborn = 330
2 Deathshrieker Rocket Launcher 200 (Demonsmith goes here)

Rare (535)
1 K’daai Destroyer = 325
1 Hellcannon = 210

sam585:

I would switch the fireborn for centaurs personally, due to the issue of taking burning bright tests on t4 is gross.

TheHoodedMan:

The key is what you aim for (is this for playing for fun or in a competitive way, tournament style?).

New ETC limits would not allow the list which means it is very hard.

I only had a few games til now with the CD myself: Personally I like the fireborn but the BCs (especially in combo with the hero) are more reliable. Also the magma cannon is a very distinctive chaos dwarf feature and in the long term you should have one :-). I also like the model more than the hellcannon (although the hellcannon is very good because it can fight most units without support).
