1000 point list

right so this is my 1000 point list. ive  played two games and been beaten, once badly and once moderately by delfs and lizardmen respectively. i have been told that i have too many charactes and i could do with some more bulls or ironguts as well as dropping leadbelchers. suggestions to list building are all welcomed and appreciated, however this is essentially all i have at the moment so its really making the most of what is available so ii really need ideas for tactics. here goes.

Hero:
bruiser w/ heavy arm. & great weapon
butcher w/ bangstick and mawseeker
butcher w/ halfling cookbook
Core:
bull w/ iron fists x4 160 pts
ironguts x3 144 pts

special:
leadbelchers x2 110
leadbelchers x 2 110

1001 pts.
thanx for help

If I were you I'd knock off 2 leadies and put either 3 bulls or a couple of ironguts, they'll serve you better in a 1000 point game than leadies will.

Drop the butcher with the cookbook for another unit of guts.

I'd also ditch the leadbelchers for bulls.

Butchers can't take bignames, so no mawseeker.

I'd also drop one of the butchers (made the same mistake myself once by fielding 2)
Id maybe only drop one of the LB units and maybe get a unit of gnoblars and a unit of trappers in (just for a little higher model count atleast)

Double Butchers at 1k is crushing. Double Leadies is not.

When I did a double butcher list at 1k I ran something like this:

Bruiser
Butcher
Butcher
3xBulls
3xIronguts
3xIronguts
9xTrappers

Then you have about 150 points left to add Magic items and stuff on the Bruiser and Butchers

Exactly. That is what I run as well. Give the Bangstick to one Butcher and you are looking at some serious magic "domination" which is weird for Ogres.

Yeah, I put a Bangstick on one of mine, too.
I think we mainly succeed at this level of magic because of the fact we know 6 spells and can almost spam them at the enemy.
You can also have a Character per unit, meaning more versatility.
