2000 Point just for fun

original thread ↗

Hey guys,

Thanks for all the help with the last post that I made. A lot fo the information has been used and my Ogre army is coming along nicely. But seeing that I am eventually aiming for 4000 points, I went ahead and went a different route with a new army list to combine the two at a later date.  This 2000 point list is going to be mostly just for fun going up against Vampire Counts, Warriors of Chaos, and High Elves (until it combines with the rest of my boys to become a larger force). I am looking for a small but monstrous list. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Hunter
Iron Fist
Stone Horn
Hell Heart
Blood Vulture

12 Ironguts
Gutlord
Standard Bearer
Bellower
Banner of Eternal Flame

6 Mournfang Cavalry
Crusher
Bellower
Standard Bearer
Heavy Armor
Iron Fists
Dragonhide Banner

2 Stonehorns
I don't think Hunters can be generals, just an fyi. Otherwise, seems silly enough :P

So, throw in a FBelly for a general, and you're golden! ;)
24 Gnobs! Wow, 2 sets, crazy!
Toothy, Workie, Sir Reginald, and Busty (for the bus explanation)!

43/101 Achievements earned! Woo! Got some of the tricky ones!

New book WLD: 17/8/2 ... A good quick game to get me re-invigorated, glad it was a win either way lol

The Irongut Champion can be the general though if you'd like.
They call me MR. Cthulhu! AAAAAHHHHHHH!
The Irongut Champion can be the general though if you'd like.

Doesn't the general have to be a hero or a lord?
Those who live by the sword, get shot by those who don't.

The list needs some legal work, for one a hunter can't be the general and for another the hellheart is an arcane item so only wizards can have it.

To tweak this list you really don't want to take the champ on the mournfang, you have to take the standard bearer off before the champ so it's not that great of an upgrade if you take a magic banner, which you should. It only gains you one attack anyways so really there's no reason to ever take a champ for them.

With the stonehorn hunter you don't have points for a hero general, so a budget tyrant is going to be the best option here. Drop two mournfang, the IG champ and another irongut, and some item points from the hunter to pay for him. So then your list might look like this:

Tyrant and Hunter on stonehorn, ~35 points of gear between them
11 IG with mus, std,  flaming banner
4 mournfnag, mus, std, DHB
2 Stonehorns
