Getting there

[skavengear]

So, after playing tim, bryan, and having a nightmarish game with ben (mishapped every turn and forgot magic all but one turn) Ive changed my list to what i feel is solid, but id just like to get the opinions of some more expirienced players:

this is 2498/2500 any suggestions are welcome, it's more for fun, but i would still like to know how capable it is of winning in the not-too-far future

I would considering dropping one of your wizards for a more combat orientated character. with the unpredictable winds of magic, you have 4 wizards, and would need some seriously high dice rollage in order to cast a spell with each of the wizards(are the engineers wizards? i know they don't actually start out as one)

other than that, looks solid, warpfire throwers are scary as heck in this edition

Correction he only has 2 Wizards, he does not have the engys listed as a Lvl1 or 2 wizard so they are just 15pt characters.

Steve is correct the engineers are fir ranged support basically. Ikit casts spells of ruin and he's my favorite character in the book, and the plague priest is for plague which when successful is such a horrific spell! (I realized the dreaded 13th is a waste when I could kill 3 units with plague before having a chance of it working)

I may swap the engineer with out the rocket for two warpstone tokens is this a good or bad idea?
