Scrap army:
Tyrant: brace of pistols, longsword, heavy armor, wizards cap
Slaughter Master: 4+ ward, skullmantle, brahmir statue
Bruiser: BSB, 4+ ward armor, luck gnoblar, brace of pistols
3x4 Bulls, standard, bellower, look-out gnoblar
2x30 gnoblars
8 trappers
3x scraplaunchers
2x4 lead beltchers
The plan is to shell the hell out of the enemy, and use the slaughter-masters gear to try and panic off a unit or two. Then, the 5 units of Ogres, and 3 S5 chariots engage what makes it through the rain of forks; supported by gnoblars to help with steadfast issues. I'm a big fan of the wizards cap in any army limited to a single lore.

Certainly looks like a fun army! Are those ogre units set up in those units sizes? 12-man ogre squad set as 3x4, that is? Or just three sets of 1x4's? I'm assuming it's the latter, but mass Bull + Characters mobs seem to be common lately.
Scraplaunchers are chariots? I thought they were just the large blast template with killing blow, no other uses other than to be annoying to assemble.

3 units bulls, 3 units gnoblars, 3 scrappies, so it's legit. Looks fun.

Thus, After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men are seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd

S5 5" killing blow, D6 S5 impact hits (because it is a chariot), and it can move and fire.
Scrap launchers are just awesome.

No, it's S3 killing blow for the Scraplaunchers. Still, that pie plate is epic. :sagenod:

Good news. This is the best time in the hobby. Full of promise. GW lets us down each time and we know it but secretly we're hoping that this is the edition that GW gives us a balanced game that can also be played competitively at tournaments. I'm loving it.
