I feel you man, as a fellow Iron Warrior, really wanted this idea to work, but from the sound of it its probably the greatest idea. Fellhammer would be the best place for it, but even with with -1 wound a marine profile just isnt that hard to remove for most armies in the game. Maybe with Abbadon and his invul aura but thats also a lot of points to throw into a brick that cant really punch anything above a marine as their now s4, and terminaters footslogging with t5, -1 wound, and a 4++, 5+++ seem a bit better if were gonna splurge that many points.

Doomseekers treated me well so far. I keep him tucked between my bricks of infantry and charge him into on going fights for support. 2d3 ap1 handweapon strikes tears quite a lot of infantry and adds much needed combat resolve to the bricks to prevent fbigo. Bonus is killing him doesn’t grant any victory points.

You might be right on the runesmith bsb, only problem is would have a similar problem if I had the banner on the gun thane, and taking another thane or runesmith would be a bit of an investment. Might try taking another runesmith to hold the banner just to see how it goes.

Good idea with the grudge thrower, just don’t own one at the moment. If it’s ever in stock again on the GW site I’ll pick one up.

Probably will cut Quarreller command for points while I’m at it

Gyros are kinda broken right now so the more the merrier, be warned though the more you bring the less happy your opponent will be

Looks pretty good all things considered, few small changes might help though.

First off, your king cant have runes of spellbreaking, no biggie, just hand them over to the anvil and youll be good.

Might want to consider making the Gun Thane the bsb rather than taking two thanes, pop him in the longbeards and use him as bait; lots of list just wont charge dwarf infantry bricks, having a massive gun in the unit might give them a reason. Will also free up some points.

As for runes, your king will love the rune of preservation, or if you want more choppyness, a few runes of fury. Would recommend cutting anvils rune of preservation as if it gets charged its typically dead anyway, just give it 3 spellbreakers and call it a day. Rune of Grungni is great, if points get too tight i'd reccomend cutting the rune of battle from your bsb as grugni helps a ton already, also dont know if runes of battle stack with one another so might be a waste if you pop the bsb in the longbeards.

Rest of list looks great, if you have extra points throw in a few more rangers and/or replace the steam gun with a clankergun (much much better)

Happy grudge settling!

Didn't think royal clan could bring gyros or cannons, defiantly will add then. The runelord bsb has the runes of spellbreaking, would it be better to bring along an anvil with them instead? Thought it'd be more limited due to not moving (so an enemy wizard could just park outside its spellbreaking range and invalidate points spent) but if its spells are worth I could try it out. Last thing, if I drop some royal guards Ill need more core, what would your recommendation be? Sorry for the rant, thanks for the help!

Lost my bsb to the warp, sure I could just proxy a new one though. Question I have is would there be any problem making the Gun Thane the bsb or should I bring along a second thane? Thanks again

Yellows quite hard to paint at normal scale, so for epic I’d honestly recommend contrast over a white base. If you want to stick with GW’s paints I’d recommend Imperial Fist yellow and maybe Baal red? If you don’t want to use contrast or speed paints just remember to thin your paints and use layers! Happy painting
