So, with my drive next year to start doing some WFB and my love of all things dwarfy, i thought i'd try and glean some forum wisdom from the more experienced players among you.
What i was thinking (and i know this may all change when the new book is out), and tell me if im wrong on any of these, is:
Lord on shield (actually this is a bar top as my lord is the landlord of this drunken throng. question is this the best way to run a lord? and what runes should i be considering? he'll be in a big unit of....
28 Warriors with Shields and hand weapons again is this the best way to run these? and is 28 enough, i was thinking 5 ranks of 6 dwarfs....this is my main question actually, what is the best way to run blocks of warriors (ranks and file wise)? these are the Black skull pass models mainly so i cant change them to great weapons easily. and of course banner/musician and champ.
i have cannons too, 2 of them, i assume its worth putting an engineer with these? is it worth looking at great engineers too?
thunderers, i have 20ish of these, 2 units of 10 or one big unit of 20? and what is really the difference. my gut feel is 2 of 10.
I have plenty of the slayer models too but from what i understand these are generally considered crap, but if you had to run them (mainly as i like the fluff for them) what would you do?
the other units in the book im going to worry about when the new book comes out i think.
any thoughts/suggestions/advice would be good so go nuts!
