So i am starting trollbloods and i think i want to go with a list for cc, a list that once i get in my opponants face i will rip him apart like flap jacks. so i have made a 35 and 50 pt list.
heres what i have so far
trollbloods battle box
5 champs
champ hero
fell caller
pyre troll

so heres the lists
35pts
Borka kegslayer+5
Dire troll Mauler -9
Axer-6
5 champs -10
champ hero -3
6 fennblades -5
Fellcaller -3
4 Kriel stone bearer -3
stone scrbe -1

50 pt
Borka kegslayer+5
Dire troll Mauler -9
Axer -6
EBDT -10
5 champs -10
champ hero -3
10 fennblades -5
Fellcaller -3
4 Kriel stone bearer -3
stone scrbe -1
whelps -2

so what do you think about my lists
i was wonderring if the dire troll bomber is any good and if i should add the fennblades officer and drummer

The Bomber is a great warbeast, but you're going to get more mileage out of a Mauler in a Borka list. If you've got room points-wise in your list, the drummer and officer add a lot of utility to your fennblades.

Also, the champion hero is a great solo, but you might want to swap him for Skaldi Bonehammer once he's out(he's the Trollkin Champion UA; they just posted his preview on the PP website).

Welcome to Hordes! I'm dabbling with Trolls at the moment, but only have the starter box and a second caster. I'm going to paint them to clean my painters pallette, but also because I want an army that 1) hits hard but 2) has some synergy. I'm currently rolling with Khador, which has #1 in spades, but is a bit too straight forward for me atm.

Or maybe i'm just crazy, who knows.

yeah cant wait to try skaldi hes like a babby borka lol
and so ima take a guess that this is a good maybe decent list so after i get everything in this list ima definatly get a bomber

Couple of suggestions: Both the Fennblades and the Kriel Stone work best as full units. The former is due to Vengeance, and the second greatly extends the area their aura can effect. The UAs for both units are also great, and I'd try to squeeze them in if you can.

Yeah, one of the big strengths is that Trollbloods don't really have a "bad" unit or beast (or caster) choice. Some may have more specific purposes on the field, but all in all, they're solid.

Except Champs. They're retardedly good...

Mulg is up there with the Champs in my book. "Mulg Charges" has never ended with the target being on the table except in the form of scrap.

so is this better

35pts

Looks ok but you will really have to protect one of those beasts, at 35 I would drop either the champs or the fenn blades and add at least 1 more beast.

I say try it.

One thing you might discover is that the Fennblades will get in the way of you having
a real good straight line for your Axer to Rush the Mauler, but it'll nice to try it out.
