Hey all, new to Dakka but not to gaming or forums. Just wanted to put a list I've been toying with out there and see what people think.

Lord: Slaughtermaster: Lv4. Arabian Carpet. Hellheart.

Hero: Butcher: Lv2. Dispel Scroll. Power Stone.


Core: Gnoblars: 50 Strong. Trapper Upgrade. Musician & Standard Bearer.

Army Total: 1995pts

tis, basic as a list. But i was basing it on the "hit 'em hard, hit 'em fast" principal.
Plus experience at using Gnoblars tells me most of the people I face would rather fight the ogres than the Gnoblars.

This is strictly for lols right?

Dude. Your list is awesome.
And welcome to Dakka!
I don't have any tactical advice for you, but it is awesome enough for my approvald.
(Though, if I'm gonna say anything, is your Lord solo? Isn't that a bit dangerous? Or... Do you place him with the Gnoblars? That would be awesome. )

Yup, but half my local gaming league I can beat with this list. and they have serious competetive lists too.

thanks Cornerfag lols ^_^

Its a fun list for sure, but I can't see it doing anything to a real competitive list.

What do you do vs. people with cannons?

Or Dark elves?

Special: Mournfang Cavalry: 2 Strong. Hv Armour. Ironfists. 2 seems too small, and they have way too easy a time getting spooked 44% they panic, 44% they run 44% they don't rally

Rare: Thundertusk I've never used these, my experience with other super gigantic monsters makes me leery though

I have a feeling this army is designned to combat a certain type of list that your local club seems to have a lot of. And if it does well against them and you enjoy playing it that keep going! Personally, the way I roll, I can't fight my way out of a paperbag with anything WS 3. WS2 and Str2 would make me that much worse I think.

I'd change the mournfangs from 3x2 to 2x3. 50 gnoblars are going to die quickly and silently. All they need is one flank hit with a ranked unit and they'll fold. I'd like to see something for your butcher and lord to go in, and the carpet is a waste of points imho. But if it's going well for you, great!

Yeah, my basic dwarf list would tear that to pieces, but it's a fun list and has lots of flair! I could see it being an "all or nothing", where it trounces some armies and loses badly against a lot.
