Obviously I have no artillery, but I have lots of troops. What do you guys think? It have any possibilities? General idea is for the general to challenge people while the thane covers the flank and only uses oath stone if desperate. The gyrocopter will do what it always does. I think probably strollaz the thunderers first turn to better get them in range. I have no artillery to protect. I am thinking possibly swapping the thunderers for 10 quareller rangers with veteran/shield/GW.

Great army list the only comments i have are:

1: Strollaz rune makes the unit count as having moved for the purpose of shooting so your thunderers still wont be able to shoot

2: Dwarves is an army which lacks numbers and the ability of bringing the fight to the enemy, what they lack in numbers they more than overcompensate with their big guns.
so use them, the organ gun does well for me the problem with an organ gun is range this is where point 3 comes in

3: quarrelers are not even half as effective as thunderers in my opinion but they do have 30" range and will force the enemy to send its cc troops forward which then get blown to smithereens by an organ gun and thunderers.
without quarrellers long ranged armies (high elves wood elves) could just shoot you without you being able to shoot back.
the trade thunderers --> quarrellers is maybe a really good idea considering that your army is gonna go to the enemy instead of wait for them to come.

4: ironbreakers or hammerers are something to consider in this army

Ironbreakers: Get to the enemy without having to worry about getting shot to pieces and can win combat with static combat resolution 2+ armour saves will make them practically invuneravle

Hammerers: might get shot but in cc they will wreak havoc, You might also consider additional longbeards with great weapons because: their special rule has more effect than that of the hammerers they have the same stats as hammerers



Note that any army that can produce a gun- or bowline could smash your forces you have a choice to make eitherdeny the enemy vp's or feed them some points before you smash them with the full might of the dwarves. at the moment your army is stuck somewhere between this.
