------------------------------------------
I think we have some nice limits. you can still ignore the chalice and put the 4th level Death prophet and the dispel scroll, or built a different list with a 4th level hashut propeth (now you can cast Hashut with 5 dice) and the chalice and maybe a fire or metal daemonsmith…
So if you really wish, you can go 4 war machines + Iron Demon.
