What theme are you going for? Going by the cannon and hotpot being chaos dwarf crewed I assume you'll have goblins or hobgoblins standing in for light cavalry. I can't see why you have a unit of 10 heavy cavalry unless you're putting the paymaster and captain in the unit.

Sorry Zanizbar I sould have said something along time ago....
It's a great list except because of the fluff you wrote, you resricted yourself to no pikemen and such. Not the best thing IMO because I LOVE pikemen!;)

Your Paymaster screams to be on foot, armed with two hand weapons and being modelled after a certain undead pirate...

Heh, didn't think this can of worms would be re-opened. I know that this list suffers from a lack of tactical ability, but it is purely a fluff army, so I can dig it.

Priest, my cavalry are nomadic horse people subjugated by my General to fight under his banner. I used Kislevite models for them, with a more Eastern skin tone (here's one (http://photobucket.com/albums/b300/Zanzibarprovince/?action=view&current=9ab0ab05.jpg), almost complete). My army is based around the Sentinels and the south-western Mountains of Mourn. The Chaos Dwarfs are there because I like the little guys but cannot have an army of them (yet).

Poet, Pikemen suck! Heh, sorry :) , but like Space Marine Chaplains, I tend to dislike those units a lot of players consider essential, so no Pikemen!

Teron, the only reason I named him that is because I wanted him to be Estalian and couldn't think of anything better :). If I put him on foot, he really wouldn't have anywhere decent to go. Oh, and if you're interested, his horse's name is Bavieca (rep. to whoever can tell me where that's from :D ).

Do the count as Specail choice, Because I thought they might count as Rare?

Correct me if I'm Wrong:)

We had this discussion on the original posting of this list. Maneaters DO NOT count as two rares or one rare, but as a special. It says so on the page before the army selection list.
