Migi`s Chaos Dwarfs (TOW)

No, the wolve is a GW-model and the Hobgoblin is a etsy pick.

Progress is being made; I’ve now been able to finish the first three bull centaurs.



I like them too, even though they’re not very useful in the game at the moment.

Stunning Bull Centaurs and army generally! We’re going to need an army shot soon with all the models you’ve painted so far! :crossed_fingers:

Thank you all!

Next weekend I have my first 3-game tournament with Chaos Dwarfs. The tournament focuses on nice lists rather than meta lists, so my list doesn’t include two Iron Demons or anything like that. I’m curious to see how it goes. In the test games, I realized I’m not playing the Bale Taurus very well. Unfortunately, it’s too late to change anything now, and besides, all the models need to be painted anyway. I’ll let you know how it goes…

Good luck bro

Here’s a little update on my first tournament with Chaos Dwarves.

  1. Play against Empire with a lot of shelling.
    The game ended 10:10

  2. Game against a pure cavalry list of Bretons.
    8:12 Defeat because I couldn’t capture the center (300 VP), otherwise I would have been cleaned up from one side.

  3. Game 15:5 victory against a nice melee dwarf list.

Overall I ended up in 6th place out of 16, which was clearly too good.

The evaluation of the individual units after the game:

The Bale Taurus was good, never died and hoped to close the flanks when necessary. I would just downgrade it from level 4 to level 3 next time. Magic wasn’t actually a big factor in the games.
The BSB with the banner was ok. He ensures that the Blunderbuss unit is not shot down so quickly. However, I don’t know if it’s really worth the 160 points.
The little magician was ok. Some rerolls and sometimes a Doombolt were ok. If I have to cancel a Deathshrieker I would of course cancel him too.
The Blunderbuss were very good. Nobody wants to attack you. Never lost them.
30 hobgoblins with light armor were already too many for me. 20+25 can certainly do the job just the same. Lost them in 2 out of 3 games.
The Iron Demon was outstanding. In the middle of the field the Bretons were stopped from attacking and defeated a steam tank in close combat. Never lost him.
The two Deathshriekers impressed me the least. Most of the time I had to use the large template due to lack of targets. I haven’t had any resounding success here. Most of the time I lost them because I don’t have a 360 degree hero who can protect you from behind. Level 1 is simply not reliable enough for this.
I almost always lost the bull centaurs. But I also played it badly at times. I think you can’t expect anything from them here and you have to keep holding them back until they can take on a task. But you get a second chance because I really like the models.
