As a stand-alone unit, I think yes. But introduction of detachments is good for blunderbusses I think, stand & shoot has long been an occasion where they shine.

Blunderbuss and shields vs fireglaives though?

Wish we got more cds on the table though…  
30-40 seems the normal amount per 2k points

Ahh, gotcha. It will be interesting to see how well they do.

I’m pretty happy with the list as it is. I wish you could still use the casteliian on a Great Taurus, but that’s not too big a loss.

I"m planning to use the whirlwind and tenderizer as Bull Centaurs, or just convert some chaos dwarfs riding on “Modified” Khorne Juggernauts.

I know people were saying that you can take a Black orc one a wyvern, but are we able to use a Black orc hero or a lord? The former can’t ride a wyvern IIRC.

Only a Warboss may ride a wyvern.

Although clearly intended as the general-tier character type, there actually isn’t a concept of Lords in TOW. There’s just Characters, and the one with the highest LD is the General.

“Black Orc Boss” is the supercategory containing the Warboss and Bigboss profiles. As a result, following the language of the PDF, a Warboss is a legal pick. As a result, a Wyvern is a legal choice.

You could run your army with a Black Orc Warboss as the army general if you didn’t choose any characters with higher LD if you so chose.

Y’all know what the real disgrace is? Our characters not having access to full plate armour. We make full plate Chaos Armour for the humans but don’t keep any for ourselves?

I do not really want to start houseruling until I have a few games in, but letting a castellan fly on a cow is probably not an unreasonable request in some house games.  
I will likely ask atleast

just put the black orcs in front of the chaos dwarfs and they will do the same job as wearing the armour. I call it Operation: Get Behind The Greenskins

I do think it’s a fun option, especially because Greenskins are [the most popular second army](https://discourse.chaos-dwarfs.com/t/poll-old-world-faction-choices-play-style-or-not/26095) on the board, for obvious reasons.

The scope is really there to run a Khanate army that can actually fight pretty well against an opponent who pulls their punches a little, without much recourse to counts-as Chaos Dwarf units that have unusual or unreasonable toughness.

The biggest flaw, given the access to two Greenskin characters - one of which is a mainstream army general on a mainstream army monster - is the inability to cast. Still, for narrative purposes, having a legal army that’s almost entirely slaves is pretty great. I just need to learn how to sculpt appropriately spikey slave collars…

Just put 1 and 1 together, that lack of FPA, at least on the Infernal Commanders, **has** to be an oversight. Even Ironsworn have it! Real shame there won’t be an errata on the pdf.

I am a 1994 CD guy. I never had a painted CD army but got some models for my Abyssal Dwarfs for Kings of War. I even got Lamassu and Taurus and 2 Rocket launchers from first “wave” and used them for KoW for some time.

Then I got 6 render Bull centaurs I planned to use as Grotesques. But Mantic released their own Grotesques so those FW models ended in a “for later” box.

Now tOW was released and I realized I have enough to build a 1500-2000 army!

I just need to paint few decimators.

I never really liked those oversized engines FW did so this list works for me. Will make a cool hobby project around It.

Blunderbusses are my favorite infantry and I plan to use a lot of those. This is what CD are all about!

Yeah. I did the same comparison too. Dragon ogres looks better but Bull centaurs have some other rules instead of stats. One of my 2 favorite units…

Sadly I expect no futher changes to this file do we are drugi with what we have. 🙂
