I too would drop the single chukka, they're just not very impressive without a battery of them. I'd rather spend those points on upgrading your characters a bit. Few options:

Fighty Warboss + Tricksy Cowboy
*Sword of Anti-Heroes for warboss
*Dragonbane Gem for boss on wolf (or Dragonhelm if you drop the warboss' luckstone)

Protecty Warboss + Tricksy Cowboy
*Talisman of Endurance for warboss (drop luckstone)
*Dragonhelm for boss on wolf

Moar Magicks
*Drop both level 1 shamans
*Drop warboss' luckstone
*Take level 3 night goblin great shaman

Moar Magicks: Part II
*Biting Blade for warboss
*Ruby Ring of Ruin for warboss (or anybody really)

Or some combination there of. Basically my objectives are any to all of these:

*More offense on the warboss
*More defense on the warboss
*Fire ward on the wolf boss
*Stronger magic phase (= more spells and/or higher level wizard)

And as you've gathered, I'm not a fan of the luckstone on a character with only a 4+ save. Most often that means you're rerolling a 5+ or 6+? Which I guess is a thing for 5 points ... but I just prefer the fire ward on the cowboy a little more.

Otherwise the list is cool, very "Warhammer" in the best way - fluffy, full of variety, not intensely competitive (aka lots of fun )

It probably makes sense to give the Orc war boss one, but I can't give one to the BSB and I don't see the point of giving one to the big boss on the wolf.

I don't think the spear chukkah is going to be that great either. I wanted to squeeze a doom diver in the list but I couldn't make it work at this point level. I am concerned about the almost total lack of shooting in my list. Arbiter, I see your point about more magic. I am still getting the hang of 8th edition and one thing I have noticed is that magic is very powerful at 1000 points compared to 6th edition. Last night I played against wood elves with my Brets and despite a good start, was torn apart by a level 3 caster after my level 2 damsel miscast and went to level 0. I am not a fan of "Lords" being allowed in small games, but it doesn't ruin the game for me. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/637241/7657229.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/637241/7657229.page GMT
