So i had started to collect trolls but never really got around to playing them. So with what i have and budgeted to get maybe a box a week of models, i am looking for some help on making a comprehensive list to play with. Here is what i have currently. Thanks for any and all help.
Borka 1
Gunbjorn
Seaking
Bomber
Dozer/Smigg
Runerbearer
warriors w/ 3 cabers
Champions
Stone w/ Elder
2x Fire Eaters
Dhunian Knot

Aside from the Knot, you can play all (iirc) that in the new Storm of the North theme under Gunnbjorn. I'd say a Fell Caller is probably your first priority, and then Skaldi Bonehammer if you like your Champs. Oh, and a Dire Troll kit, which if you aren't going to magnetize you should make a Mauler.

Top of the list has to be a Mauler! Trolls are a bit wet limp noodle without Rage. After that Axer, Bomber & Fell Caller are solid options.

Thanks for the input. I know a fell caller or 2 was on my list of things to buy along with another heavy to magnatize for a mauler/bomber. I also have an EBDT.
Just going over things this is what i have come up with.
Storm of the North Theme
Gunny+28
Bomber 19
Mauler 15
Dozer/Smigg 18
Runebearer (free)
2x Fire Eaters 14
Max Champions 17
Max Stone w/ Elder 12
Fell Caller (Free)
If i did calculations right i would still have 8 points to play with. I could get skaldi or another fellcaller. That would still leave 3 points leftover for what i'm not sure of.

Skaldi would be my choice and the remaining three pints is a gremlin swarm
Then you are set to go and try it out

That makes sense. I was going to suggest a sorcerer for the champs, but the swarm probably matters in a lot more cases, until the CID comes through, at least.

Hey thanks for all the input. Will be putting the list to test next week once I get the rest of the models in. Time to relearn rules and put on the strategy thinking cap.
