Can never go wrong with two Iron deamons tbh. Tried it, insanely strong.

Where are the models from ? They look so good ! I love the small squadron on top :eye:

Just a heads up, the black orc chariot is Nomadic Waaagh only, you cannot take it as part of the regular Orc & Goblin tribes Grand army list.

Haha that sprue movement tray :smiley:

scratchbuilt Iron Daemons look great! Lava effect on those chimneys is pretty good. I like the blue beards on those chorfs, I’m gonna ape that :smiley:

@PawocK Hellbound Iron Daemon is an unsinkable battleship. I love it. That’s why right now I am playing with only one and designing lists without them. Just to try new challenges.

Black Orc chariot, you are right. I think we can use the “regular” boar chariot, cannot we?

About minis i’ll reply later.

@ToveriPunainen and @Jroy thank you. I love to scratch build my minis. After all I am an old grumpy dwarf, I started collecting Chaos Dwarfs in the early 2000s when we had no army, no support, no minis. I HAD to build them! But great fun.

Here are my Black Orcs. Made from left overs and old minis:

Iron Demons are also scratch built:

This is techinically a magma cannon but used as Iron Daemon:

And both crew are self sculpted:

Special

1 Iron Daemon, hellbound.

Deathshrieker rocket, hellbound.

Deathshrieker rocket, hellbound.

I played versus Orcs and Goblins, lots of infantry and lots of fun with rockets. They smashed dozens of night goblins, not much effective against Orcs and they blow up easily despite misfire rerolls.

The Castellan and the Iron Daemon are unsinkable battleships. T7 and T8 are amazing. Plus Storm of Ash (my fav signature spell!) and Infernal vigour made them hard as rocks.

The only problem is the Sorcerer Prophet a little bit fragile. Yes, T7 is amazing but with little armor (only 5+ armor save) and no save, he’s killable.
I put him into the big Great weapons unit for protection. This was ok but also prevented an aggressive use of the same unit.

I was too scared by Black Orcs or Orc General to send them against with the prophet inside. Maybe I’d better take him out of the unit at the right moment of battle and simply use the dwarfs in a better way.

However, I managed to get a draw after a bloody battle. Not bad!

Based on your list maybe swap the ruby ring of ruin for the Silversteel armor, which would grant your prophet a nice T7 +3 save. No wards however, but that can be adressed by a protection talisman swap with one mantle.

But then again the ruby ring can be nice to go over the number of cast per turn and to launch two magic missile per turn …

Thanks for the battle report :hatoff:
