Dwarfs... Need helps.

[Alzarakh]

Hey all, I've been MIA because of work, and my warhammer buddy moved back to Manitoba

So, I decided to troll craigslist and bought myself a small dwarf army. Aaaand I need some help before I make a complete fool of myself when I take it to the hobby shop in the next few weeks.

Here's what I got:

75 warriors
32 thunderers
8 crossbowmen
18 miners
14 slayers
11 longbeards
10 rangers
2 organ guns and 3 cannon
1 gyrocopter and 1 anvil of doom
2 runepriests, 1 lord and one master engineer

unbuilt sprues
14 warriors
11 crossbow or thunderers
command models and 1 cannon crew

So, is this enough to be somewhat competetive (friendly, there's no tournys near me)? Anyone have some advice on where to start? Also, I noticed in the codex that it says that units "may also carry" upgrades such as GW. Do they then have both weapons and I choose at the start of combat? Olde wording be olde.

I hope I have the current codex too, it's from 2005.

I'm mostly looking to get a good 2000pt army going so any suggestions on future units would be great.

Thanks all!

You should find a whole section of the forums dedicated to building dwarf lists.

Search for "ambush list" and "Furgil list" for a good fun/competitive list

I'm back! So, I found a few players to start playing warhammer with again and decided I want a break from my beloved VC's to try out my new dwarfs. I'm aiming for 1000pts but need some help with the remaining points left over.

1000pts
Heros:

Runesmith
Shield, Ro Spellbreaking x2 //122pts

Core:

Warriors x 25
CMD, GW //275pts
Warriors x 25
CMD, GW //275pts

Remaining: 328pts



So, that's as far as I got. A lot of people say use a grudge thrower at these points with an engineer and some runes but I only have organ guns and cannons. Any help filling in the remaining 328pts with what I have listed above please let me know. Or how I could change around the list I'm working on. Thanks!

If you want to be mean bump those warriors up to 40 each lose command and add a Cannon and drop one RoSpellbreaking, at a 1000 points two Greatweapon Hordes should munch through anything, you got a cannon for big gribblies(terrorgeist) and formidable anti-magic
