Not familiar with the items. I know that fencers blades works well on a GBS though from my experience against the goats. I find that a GBS with death parking 24" away in a bestigor block and caressing characters off works excessively well.

Perfect.

Unnecessary. You would be better off dropping it and getting a couple of tuskgor chariots and filling the remaining points you get with ungor raiders. Which IMO are the best unit in the book.

You said there are 9 people in your LGS who play WoC, Minotaurs will be dieing before they get to strike. You would be better off with bestigor as when they strike they will effectively remove chaos armour.

Another unit would be useful for redirecting until your gor are ready to fight.

abhus wrote:
Razorgor (1) 55

Lone razorgor are good for redirecting too. Beastmen want to charge in and wildform their gor up.

abhus wrote:
Cygor 275

Your points will be better spent on raiders/harpies/chariots/lone razorgor.

Cygor 275

See previous comment.

No BSB? I must I find the lack of somewhat suprising. And if you want to take rares I suggest Ghorgons acctualy.

Minos looks alrigt althou I prefer mine with ADHW but then again GW are also handy

GBS Brass Cleaver is good but probably 3rd in line behind Fencer's Blades and Steel Claws
BSB is a must I recommend the 206 (Beast Banner, Shield, Heavy Armor, Gnarled Hide= 2+6++, +1S Banner) not just giving your Gors S4 but Ld rerolls are key especially with Primal Fury.
2 Gor units are meh in my opinion, I know Trandheim likes his gors but when I lose my BSB and my gor are hitting at S3 I find them lackluster, I like a horde of Gor with the beast banner and a horde of bestigor personally
thedarkavengers comments on the rest are spot on, as for the cygor they would be my 3rd choice of the 3 big monsters Ghorgon>Giant>Cygor (not ranking the Jabber not much experience with it). Minotaur while looking cool are viable only when lead by doombulls or in a minobus, their WTF have the same toughness 4 as a gor was a puzzling call for GW.

Well yes, you make a good point. But I think depending on what he figths for the most part Minotaurs lead by a Gorebull would be a usefull addtion to the army

What do you mean excactly?

The 206 is the bsb with the beast banner, gnarled hide and heavy armour. He comes up to 206 points. He makes your gor s4/t4.

Updated the list.

You need more core. Your too short on them...

Looks ok to me?

Yea your right. Sorry mental.arithmatic at 4am didnt.do me any good...

The 206 also has a shield. Looking better I would drop the halfhorn and make 2 units of 5 raiders. I'm a little worried about only having a 6+ ward on the shaman, not enough protection in my opinion.
