Hello everyone,

I have recently had the impuls to do a little warhammer again, after constant droning questions from a friend. My trusty dwarfs from back in 6th and early 7th have been catching dus for a good number of years and I want your opinion on a new list. I've understood the meta-game has drastically changed in 8th edition with changes in combat, movement, charging and about everything else. Smart move by GW to boost sales, less good for old players who have to re-learn the entire game.

So, wise longbeards, give me your thougths.

I dropped an organ gun but still hit 3085 points. Those 85 points need to go, so I was wondering what to drop. Please not that I've never build an army in 8th before and I'm counting on the possibility that I'll need to drop a hero. The Oath-Thane was a late addition to create an implacable unit of Ironbreakers as an anvil. The lord and BSB go with the axe-dwarfs as hammer units. ME supports the cannons. Gyrocopter and Rangers work in tandem to slow the opponent down. The runesmith needs some friends to hang out with.
