For starters I am just getting back into Warhammer, I first got into the game because of Beasts of Chaos but got away from it because it just wasnt my game. But im back with the release of the new book I was really intrigued. I really liked the Minotaurs back then and they seem really good now. So here's the list


Doombull-322
-Heavy Armor 12
-Sword of Might 20
-Enchanted Shield 15
-Gnarled Hide 15
-Uncanny Senses 10
-Ramhorn Helm 15

Gorebull-260
-BSB 25
-Beast Banner 75

Gorebull-210
-Axes of Khorgor 40
-Uncanny Senses 10

Bray Shaman-125
-2x Dispel Scroll 50

Tuskgor Chariot x3-240

3 Minotaurs-189
Great Weapons 8pts per model

3 Minotaurs-209
-Great Weapons 8pts per model
-Bloodkine 20

3 Minotaurs-209
As above

Ghorgon-275

Total-2248

So assuming my math is right and everything is legal, I really like the idea behind this list. I dont know if it will win every game but I think it would be a lot of fun. It looks like it would hit really hard and be somewhat hard to get rid of. The Idea would be that the each character would join one of the Minotaur units and the bray shaman is there as a scroll caddy. I ahve the Ghorgon in there because he fits the theme of the list and he seems like a really great model.

I was little torn on the core choices I really didnt know what to go with, I figured chariots would be a good choice. But im not really sure. I was also unsure about command on the Minotaurs. It seems like it would be a waste of points, they would most likely kill anything get into base with, especially with that many great weapon attacks.

Any help or suggestions from anyone would be most helpful, I'd like to stick with the minotaur theme.

Your doombull has taken two pieces of magic armor, which isn't allowed. I would suggest swapping out the enchanted shield for a normal shield.

Also, you can't take the same Gift of Chaos twice- so only the gorebull or doombull gets uncanny senses.

You may want to trade the chariots for something screening. You're not lacking for fast-moving hard hitters, so hounds or something else might fit that role better.

It would be hard to give up a special slot since you're running the minotaur theme, but harpies might be nice to help tie up shooting or fast cav and the like.

Ah ok well thats easy enough to remedy on the characters

The problem with the chaos hounds is that they do not count toward the minimum requirements for core choices.

Doombulls are NAS-TAY! They will eat a unit all on there own, especially if they keep winning! My concern comes from the fact that you don't have anything to effectively screen the minos from shooting. These things are magnets for MM and cannon/bolt throwers because once they get to the enemy's line they have to cry (and that's just embarrassing!). Dropping the Bloodkines wouldn't be great (the characters should make up for this, though) and taking out a chariot (also not super) can let you take some Ungor Raiders. They aren't going to live long but they are just to keep some heat off the Minos while they advance.

Very cool x 2 . Similar to the other list posted... but I agree about the lack of screeners, that might be a problem :-/

After seeing Angron's list in the other thread, I can make my gorbulls like his, one with a brass cleaver and one with steel claws. And fit in two units of 7 chaos hounds, providing some of that needed cover!

Edit: I can actually fit 12 hounds not 14 so two units of 6

Those Hounds will really help. The ones that aren't screened by them will either have to risk being out in the open or move slower behind the chariots.
