New to 8th and really to fantasy aswell, but got some rough ideas so far.

Slaughtermaster: Level 4, ironfist, armour of destiny, hell heart
Bruiser: BSB, armour of silvered steel, great weapon
Fire belly: Level 2, great weapon, Dscroll

8 Ironguts: full command, LOG, flamer banner (slaughtermaster and BSB go here)
9 Bulls: Ironfists, full command (fire belly goes here)

4 Mournfangs: heavy armour, ironfists, full command, dragon hide banner

Ironblaster


Thats what ive got for 2k so far.
Want to bring it up to 3k, so was thinking of adding in a 2nd ironblaster, 2-3 sabertusks and bolstering units, but unsure so far with the list.
Really did want to get 2 sabertusks into the 2k mark, but seems pretty squashed for points as it is.

Genuinely good list imo. 2 things.

1) drop the mournfang champ. Not needed and not worth the points.
2) consider swapping the flame banner for the banner of discipline. This plus the SM gives you a LD 9 bubble for the army.

If you really want some kittys. Maybe drop the level 2 upgrade on firebelly. Fireball is all you really want on him seeing as the SM is gonna need/want most of the dice most of the time.

All anyone wants in the world is to be accepted. Except me, i don't give a S%@t.

The slaughtermaster doesn't need the armour, as he should be in the second rank of the iron guts. Give him the ruby ring and you can drop the firebelly.

Run the bulls in 6's.

Mournfangs work fine in units of 3 with a muso.

If you have two characters, you need two Iron guts.

Add some single drop cats.

And at 2000 points you should have enough for a second unit of 6 bulls, and the Runemawe is more useful than the extra level of magic on the SM.

I guess if i drop the champ and the level 2 it gives me enough to grab 2 cats.
Want to have them if possible since they seem to be a pretty solid choice.

The banner idea is pretty solid too, so might have to go with that.

For expanding to 2,500, i was thinking:

Thundertusk
Ironblaster

leaves me 80 points, i could add in another mourn, or 2 more bulls.

Failing that, 30 gnoblars as a giant shield (15x2)
