After acquiring my dwarves I havent treated them with the respect that they deserve. I have chosen the elven kin over my fellow dwarves. I want to expend on my current dwarves collection to build a nice list which I can use in casual pick up games. The people in my area are the opposite of competitive and don't really like to play against hard armies.
The fluff is one of the reasons I really like dwarfs and slayers in particular. So I will try my hand at a slayer cult list for 2400 swedish play.
Ungrim Ironfist @ 350
Runesmith @ 113
-2x spellbreaking
-Rune of Stone
Thane BSB @ 188
-Grungi
-Strollaz
29 Longbeards @ 442
-FC
-Shields
-Stoicism
10 Thunderers @160
-FC
-Shields
Cannon @ 150
-Burning
-Forging
Grudge thrower @ 130
-Accuracy
-Forging
Gyrocopter @ 80
Gyrocopter @ 100
-vanguard
36 Slayers @ 539
-Giant w/ fire
-FC
-Strollaz
-2x Sanctuary
Organ gun @ 145
-Accuracy
2397 points
The BSB and the runesmith go with the shieldbeards and move up with Ungrim and his Slayers. The thunderers will baby sit the warmachines and make short work of war machine hunters and cav.
The list comes in at a 14,2 comp.
I have a few questions about my list:
What are the experiences of people with running a slayer star like this and more importantly is Ungrim worth it? He seems like a tough nut to crack that can certainly dish out his fair share of pain. I like the fluff behind him and thats the main reason I am running hem.
Lords tend not be taken in Dwarven armies but I like the idea of a Lord leading the way.
What do you guys think?
