1500 points vs chaos dwarfs... Am I screwed?

original thread ↗

So in 2 weekends time I'll be playing chaos dwarfs for the first time...

I've managed to have a (very quick) look at the new army book and the things that scare me are that flask that makes all units within 18'' do a panic test and ash cloud. Not to mention their crazy war machines! The only thing I know for definite that's being included is the k'daii destroyer as my opponent wants to try it out for fun.

I don't have high hopes for this game mostly because my knowledge of the enemy is very limited and that puts a massive dent in tactical planning but I was just wondering if anyone has any good ideas for units that are important to take against CD!

So far I think I will take a SM for buffs (maybe a hell heart on this guy too), and a bruiser with dragon helm to solo charge out of a unit and tie up k'daii

Other than that 2 iron blasters and maybe some scouting maneaters to deal with their war machines.

Any other suggestions? I know I'm in for a tough fight but just don't want to be tabled on turn 3....

Thanks all!!

Think of them as an uber gun line army with everything having flaming attacks. Also if he takes a destroyer then it will be a nightmare. If you aim for a draw then you could be onto a winner.

If you PM me your e-mail address I can help to broaden your knowledge of the CD.
