lords
bathasar gelt

general
castle in your pocket
warhorse lance all that jazz

hero
level 2 wiz

army standard
horse and stuff

engineer
longrifle

troop

3x 10 crossbows

10 knights smc

14 knights smc

special
3 cannons

3morters

rare

2 volloy guns

50 points left for magic items which seems a bit low
what items are good for my heroes , not knowing the game anymore really a point in the right direction here would be nice

also i have a unit 24 swords men, and 20 flaggelents few more crossbows, hero models and could make more knights.
and im not poor so could buy things if they are awesome

big thanks to people that already helped me or i would have had a list with 6 level 2 wizards

In your thread, trolling.

To small of units for the points you're paying. The units really aren't big enough road blocks for all of that shooting. Drop the lvl 2 mage, it's going to eat up your power dice, since you have nothing to generate extras. Great weapons on knightly orders are a lot better then shields and lances.

Not sold on using Bathasar Gelt to be honest. I'd rather fit in a lvl 4 wizard lord with a few items.

I'd say make the knights into one unit of 15-20 and they try and get some nice big locks of swordsmen or some other state troops in there.

If you're going to have 8 war machines as well you might be better off having 2 naked engies for the re rolls.

My 2 cents =)

one block knights sounds good , will just look messy panther and sun mixed together. ill get some test games in and see how things go , if engineer is good might have a second seems sensible

Test games are really the only way to get a feel for an army. Not everything that looks good on paper preforms well on the table.

Engineer's allow for you to re-roll one dice (Scatter or Arty) per turn if i recall correctly. Given you have 8 war machines you are bound to roll a miss fire at least once per turn so that re roll could possibly save that war machine. Or maybe you REALLY need that cannon to hit some big bad monster, that re-roll could once again help.
