Ok so I've been playtesting my take-all-comers list recently with some surprising, and encouraging results against a lot of the top-tier armies and some truly horrendous builds. Here's the list that I have now tweaked to what I believe fits my playstyle the most efficiently. It mixes decent shooting, decent magic defense with an ultra-solid, nigh-unbreakable, immune to fear and terror centre line. As always, its open to comments:

im not into dwarfs lately, i just took a wrong turn and ended up in the leprecaun section..


it seems quite solid yet i have to say i tend to make lists that are good allrounders, thinking theyll have a proper chance against anything.

I think however that this thinking has one tiny fatal flaw.
you can call it "a good allrounder" OR you can say "a not enough of just about anything rounder" So youll have a decent army, but an opponent that focuses on 1 thing might just be too much of that 1 thing and youl have no counterattack ready

However! yes your list is good, damn good thats why nobody dares give a reply :p
wish i could fight you sometime.
do you have battlereports out here?

p.s. do people use those oathstones? i like the idea of them, havent seen them in action yet

anyhow ill be going back to my greenskins now

@Digger: I havent got any Dwarf batreps up yet but I'm going to start posting some alongside some pictures of my army (still finishing painting and basing!) against some formidable opponents.
