moses:

Are you sure about taking no ogre for your dreadquake?

3

Skink:

…And do you really need to give Hellbound to your warmachines???

4

BABIS:

and what about the skullcracker? it’s quite useless :wink: everything but the infantry can stop it for all the match…

5

Yodrin:

I would also consider a dispel scroll

rpitts2004:

The hellbound on the dreadquake was supposed to be a slave ogre,

As for the skullcracker I have only fielded it once against ogres which obviously was lame, however it was a super tarpit and held up a unit of bulls, also 90% of the people at my local gaming store play infantry armies

I would also consider taking fireborn or bull centaurs, thoughts?

Grimbold Blackhammer:

And your Dark Castellan is on an Arabyan Carpet? Shouldn’t he be busy making that giantly expensive unit Stubborn?

Grimbold Blackhammer
Not for what I want him to do, going to re-work the points to get the crown of command to my prophet.

Skink:

…And again, a Hellcannon instead of the Dreadquake?

...And again, a Hellcannon instead of the Dreadquake?

Skink
I only own one dreadquake, and with my limited numbers the hellcannon can help protect one of my flanks.

RiTides:

I can see the need for the hellcannon- am I missing something or does this list only have one “true unit” in it? (i.e. the Infernal Guard block)

I’d want at least another monster or… something! I feel like a lot of lists I’ve fielded, if they could weather the storm of fire, would get tons of points back by eating the warmachines and likely play to a draw. It seems like it’d be hard to get a true win with this.

Against an army with lots of units, I don’t think you’ll be able to stop them from getting to your gunline with just the iron daemon, hellcannon, and infernal guard block as pieces that can be in combat, with absolutely no redirectors in the list.
