It's 1741 Points at the moment.
Just wanting to try and start with some Fantasy. No one seems to play any Empire 'round here so it might be fun.
Plus the models make me think of "Robin Hood: Men in Tights".
Anyway is this list doable on the battlefield?

Rifle on engineer isn't very good, plus, if he uses it, he cannot boost war machines...Hellstorm is too unreliable, better take a hellblaster and stick engineer in there.
Also having no real mage in the army is major problem. Empire has access to 8 lores which is awsome, why not take advantage of it?

Agreed with above, drop everything but iron cure icon from warrior priest, drop everything from engineer, just take a normal BSB, and drop all upgrades from the 10 man units of handgunners, and now you have enough for at least a lvl2 plus throw great weapons on the WP and CotE.

As far as lores go, try a different one each game and find one that suits you, but my all time favorites are life, death, beasts.
