Hey guys,
Just tried to put together a list thats both fun to play and fun to play against. I don't wont a strong list and i dont want a boring one! so hpw does this look? I was thinking of dropping the large rat dart in favour of some optics for the engineer and maybe a warp musket instead of a pistol, however this is a move or fire weapon sadly

Warlock Lvl1 115
Warp energy condenser Doomrocket

Warlock 48

it actually looks pretty competitive lol.

i mean no bsb will hurt but otherwise you've got good sized units, a good amount of models, you've taken a doom rocket,

i mean its basically everything i take in my castle list minus the bell and hellpit. and that list was designed specifically to win, and was not friendly

Lol!
CRaaaaaap! my bad...

i thought spending 233 point on Globadiers/PWM/Warlock with death globes unit would make the list a little "weaker" (due to 233 points running of the board from a leadership 7 panic test if within seer range). Not saying Globadiers are bad, but the points could be spent else wear (second warplightning cannon and a few extra models here there). Also decked out the grey sear a little more defensivley (i would opt not to use the dreaded 13th spell).

I know how broken the doom rocket is, but my little rat-heart breaks at the idea of leaving it at home :'(
Maybe i could pull that out and the large ratdart unit to get a BSB instead? I was only including them just for some model variation...

ha!
regarding misfires, warpfire throwers come to mind (running 2D6 and then exploding is one of the best miss fire results).
i am a bit limited when it comes to models:

110 clanrats/slaves
3 Rogres
Doomwheel
WLC
2 WFT
2 PWM
1 Rattling

so pretty much the contents of two IoB sets. I may have some models back home but i cant remember what i sold a couple years ago.
Also i was thinking of dropping the grey sear to make it less competitive, however i am reluctant to as i would be playing high elves and this seems like suicide to me :P

After reading the big rulebook and its magic items im really liking the Feedback scroll, seems like a nasty suprise for your opponents...
Also to make it less competive what would people say to dropping the doomrockte for warlock optics on the engineer in the unit of globadiers? seems rather expensive for just an extra BS point

Your math is off on the Warlord, he costs well over 200 points with this build.

That looks very friendly and random. Make sure to mention that when you keep on rolling double 1's for leadership. Still looks good for its purpose though.
I have awoken, so have my pets.

My blades will be upon you soon.

Then you will be bathed in warp-fire.
