Can't decide how to spend the last 91 pts, either pimp up the heroes with magic gear, another doom diver, some boltthrowers, 2 pumpwagons, another shaman, a combination, or should I get something else?

Hmm... Armour of fortune would be nice, but it is a boatload of points...

I'm really not afraid of the magic mushrooms, in 5 or so games, I've gotten 2 wounds from them...

The hoppers are actually quite good at protecting my warmachines from small, quick units. Thanks to the ability to 360° Charge... They beat the snot out of salamanders, pistoliers and dark riders atleast. Once their protection detail is done, I usually try to use 'em as a support unit to flank things...

Skarsnik is there due to my utter inability to roll 8 or less on LD tests... That reason alone makes him essential at this point level for me. That he's no slouch in CC, his bound spell and ability to delay enemies are just a bonus to that...

So, either:
Upgrade the lvl 1 mage to 2, give the great shaman a channeling staff, and armour of fortune for the BSB

Or, another lvl 1 mage, and armour of F. for the bsb.

Or the armour for the bsb, a bolt thrower and a channeling staff...

How do you keep lone trolls alice and how do you use 'em?

As I said earlier, Skarsnik is there mainly for his LD, cool model and his LD. The rest is just a bonus. Did I mention his LD?

What's your thoughts on squigherds, 7x5 or should I go for less ranks and horde 'em? I've tried 5x5, 6x5 and 7x5.

Aye, but then you also loose out on many of those sweet attacks when facing things that strike before you...

I've been sorely tempted to go horde due to the extra 10 str5 attacks...though those 36 squigs and 14 herders coosts am arm and a frikkin leg... Both point and moneywise... Own 27-28 of the red buggers so far...
