I am planning on playing very aggressively with this list (I'm going to try the "Oblique order" tactic) and what I mean by that is The declined or refused flank, it is a tactic whereby an attacking army focuses its forces to attack a single enemy flank. My Longbeard rangers will scout on the enemies weakest flank with my Hammerers closely supporting them on the front line (They will be more benefical because of the Strollaz's rune attached to the BSB which will be plased in the Hammerers block. The shield warriors will then be 6" inches behind the hammerers right flank to support them if needed. Then the two grudge throwers will be on the right most part of the flank and hopefully there will be a hill or something to obscured LoS from them while still being able to supply firing support for the warriors and hammerers. While the Organ will (agian, hopefully) be deployed in a spot where it can cover all flanks (including the longbeards right flank). The cannon will just WM or Monster Snipe ;D

Any tips would be cool.

Also those 30 shield warriors I am not fond of, I would prefer two small or one large unit of Quarrellers with the rest of the points (if you have some left) going into more hammerers.

Only +3dd and a +2 to dispel might not be enough, I would try to fit in atleast one spelleater rune or two RoSpellbreaking.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/425423/3845154.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/425423/3845154.page GMT 2400 Dwarfs "Suck on these Potatos!" (2nd Revised Tournament list) FAQ, rangers don't count for the warrior to long beard ration.

Swap warriors for miners. Now you've got 4 deployments.
Hammerers, who being stubborn aren't to worried about their flanks, warmachines, then characters.
Then you flank scout rangers, and support with miners.
Maybe swap organ gun for gyro, the speed is really helpful in the sneaky dwarf build.

But honestly I would swap the organ gun for a gyro just due to its range. Then I second the motion for miners]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/425423/3846710.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/425423/3846710.page GMT Re:2400 Dwarfs "Suck on these Potatos!"

and I cant take out the warriors because I have a unit of longbeards, I need at least one unit of warriors to fit in the longsbeards unless I have a lord (doesn't matter if their rangers or not, their still longbeards.)

Yea, sticking runic weapons on heroes/lords is kinda, umm, ify, I need them to last long, and the second thane is only for the challenge rune. The other is my BSB, which needs to live till about turn 5. Weapon runes are a waste of points if you ask me ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/425423/3846851.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/425423/3846851.page GMT Re:2400 Dwarfs "Suck on these Potatos!"

1) You have 629 points of Core Rangers. Without the Warriors, you have 26.2% as core.
2) Since you didn't check the FAQ, here's the quote for you:

Q. If a unit of Warriors or Longbeards is upgraded to Rangers, does
the unit continue to count as part of the ratio which restricts players to
not having more units of Longbeards than they have Warriors?
(p33)
A. No.

So long beard rangers do not count towards the ratio. You have ZERO warriors in your list (once made better by dropping warriors), and ZERO units of long beards that count for the long beard to warrior ratio.

Replace warriors with 21 miners, full command, and steam drill. Saves you 5 points.
