garthag:
Sorcerer- prophet, dispel scroll, lvl 4 = 300
infernal castellan, bsb, great weapon, armour of bezherak = 185
Sorcerer, lvl2, channeling staff, pistol = 150
20x infernal guard, 20x fireglaives = 340
20x infernal guard, 20x fireglaives = 340
Iron Daemon, hellbound = 310
magma cannon, hellbound = 170
magma cannon, hellbound = 170
This is my first major attempt at a 2000 point army list. Opinions please.
Bloodbeard:
Get some wardsaves on the prophet and castellan. Mask of the Furnace for Castellan is the most used way.
Give a talisman of preservation to the prophet for a 4++.
Those too guys are important and they will get cannonball of death magic sniped, so keep them alive.
Started giving my prophet the Earthing Rod, because his to expensive to loose to a miscast.
Chalice of Blood and Darkness is great for a daemonsmith. Save you points on a dispel scroll.
Give the Iron Curse icon to a hero or lord. 6++ against warmachines for 5 points - will always earn itself.
The lichbone pennant for 15 points give you a 6++ against magic. Will always earn itself.
Hellbound iron demon is great. extra toughness, extra wounds.
No need to go hellbound on the magma cannons. They’ll definately not survive a misfire when hellbound.
Fireglaives are very nice. But take up 80 points in your units. I would rather have a unit og HW/S dwarfs with some extra bodies (for an extra rank). They have strength four and 6++ parry save.
Otherwise spend those fireglaive/hellbound ponts on something speedy. A small unit of bull centaurs or hobgoblin wolfraiders. For taking out enemy machines.
A lsit like yours will only let you play in one way - stand still, shoot as much as possible, wait for the charge. And it is a hard gun line.
Take a look in the subforum. Loads of 200 points lists there. Have some in my own thread (see signiature).
garthag:
So replace one fireglaive unit with hs/ shield?
Yodrin:
Protection on your prophet and bsb is a must, tal of pres and mask. I also like to give one charm and the other enchanted shield.
No hellbound on magma.
I like running GW on my IG, but either way one unit with fireglaives is enough.
So either go GW and bsb, fireglaive and prophet or
H/S and bsb, fireglaive and prophet
