Just getting back into the game and not yet got the northkin models. The two casters I wanted to get into before I left because my baby was born were doomy3 and hunters grim. Could anyone give me some good info on building lists for these guys if they are ok to use. (May also consider Madrak1 after reading that he’s a bit ok)
Many thanks

Not really sure how to build Grim2 these days though. Burrowers are not what they once were although Sluggers are really good with him.

Oh yes. Gargantuans' immunity to grievous wounds makes them desirable targets for the feat. It also loves Call of Troqal, which lets it benefit from Rush on the charge then cast Rage for free before its attacks.

MK is fine with Doomy 3 (and most casters tbh), but i would not chose it. Here is a possible starting point: | Trollbloods Army - 75 / 75 points [Theme] Kriel Company
(Grim 2) Hunters Grim [+25][*]Dire Troll Bomber [19] [*]Dire Troll Bomber [19] [*]Trollkin Runebearer [0(5)]
Braylen Wanderheart, Trollkin Outlaw [0(5)] Swamp Gobber Chef [1] Krielstone Bearer & Stone Scribes (max) [9][*]Stone Scribe Elder [3]
Sons of Bragg [11] Thumper Crew [0(5)] Trollkin Sluggers (min) [6] Trollkin War Wagon [16] Trollkin War Wagon [16]
| Trollbloods Army - 75 / 75 points [Theme] The Power of Dhunia
(Doomshaper 3) Hoarluk Doomshaper, Dire Prophet [+26][*]Dire Troll Mauler [15] [*]Dire Troll Mauler [15] [*]Earthborn Dire Troll [14] [*]Mulg the Ancient [22] [*]Troll Axer [10] [*]Troll Bouncer [9] [*]Trollkin Runebearer [0(5)]
Northkin Shaman [0(4)] Northkin Shaman [0(4)] Troll Whelps [4] Krielstone Bearer & Stone Scribes (max) [9][*]Stone Scribe Elder [3]

If two WWs are not an option, you could switch one of them for Highwaymen without feeling ashamed, but war wagons are really good nowadays. If money is not an issue, id go for that for sure

Thanks. That’s some food for thought. I’ve got one war wagon and was hoping to get the hooch hauler when released. Do you think I should get a second WW instead? There’s a few others in that list that I’m missing like sons of Bragg

There’s a few others in that list that I’m missing like sons of Bragg I would suggest getting the Hooch Hauler instead of the second War Wagon, it gives a lot of benefits to other Northkin models while. I used to have 2 War Wagons but sold one after I kept failing to get them to ever do anything in multiple games. The Hooch Hauler I found was far easier to get work out of.

So if you are willing to buy a lot of other northkin stuff to play that theme, the HHH is a great buy. If you are one of those who wants to own the entire faction to be able to play what ever, then get one of each?
