**Luke\_barnes** :

Im new to dwarfs of any kind I’m a skaven player. So I’m guessing this will be terrible. Feel free to rip it apart. I’d rather that than go in my  
  
Converting spree and find out I have a ton of useless models.  
  
The list isn’t complete. I have 99 points to spend on items and banners…  
  
Lords+Heros:  
  
Sorcerer prophet lvl3  
  
Lvl1 daemon smith  
  
Bsb   
  
Core  
  
30 hand weapon/shield dwarfs with command  
  
25 great weapon dwarfs with command  
  
Special  
  
2x magma cannon  
  
1x rocket launcher  
  
5 bull centaurs with shields and command  
  
20 ironsworn with command  
  
That’s 2301 points so 99 to spend on goodies. Should I drop a bull centaur for an extra 45 points spare? Or drop the cannon for more items/guys?  
  
Any additions are welcome. Wolf riders? Fireborn?  
  
100% open.  
  
Thanks in advance

My first thoughts are that you may struggle with only a lv3 and lv1 with no extra magic defence. Also that none of your characters have extra defence.   
  
I'd drop the extra bull centaur as 4 can do what 5 can.   
  
I like ironsworn in my lists but 20 may be too small in a list this size. Saying that you have 3 blocks which should be pretty hard to shift if used well.

**Bassman** :

I would upgrade the prophet to level IV and give a dispel scroll to the Demonsmith.  
  
How are you going to equip them?  
  
I’d swap one magma cannon for another rocket. I found 2 rockets and one magma as the perfect combo :wink:

**Luke\_barnes** :

So if I drop a bull and swap magma cannon for a normal cannon, I shoul spend the points on magic and some extra magic resistance?

**Luke\_barnes** :

Also as I’ll have an few extra forgeworld dwarfs I can bump the ironsworn as 23.  
  
Forgeworld are ironsworn normal guys are conversions you see.

**Bassman** :

You definitely should give the prophet and the bsb castellan some protective gear. They MUST survive :wink:  
  
Here is a very good thread about equipping LoA characters:
