I'd feel remiss if I didn't chime in to say I have a large Rhulic army with a good number of conversions, including Rhulic-ized mods of a number of human and elf merc solos. The latter I did out of impatience for new releases and with an Irregulars idea in mind. I consider it my main force in sheer number of fully painted models (although my Khador force is close).
PS Not sure why, but I do keep tabs on Rhulic rules despite playing rarely. I guess I just want to know my army isn't weak, out of a sense of pride. lol

You can add me to the "want to but have yet to start" vote. Though now that my work load is starting to drop off I've been thinking of getting back into the hobby.

Owned/play: Doubles of all Rhulic models save the Colossal, characters, and missing one mortar team. Make Highshields great, for once!

I stick to the human mercs as far as casters, have hammer dwarves of course.
I do have one player in my meta that has soley played dwarves(Ossrum) lately although he does still have some trolls.

Sweet and Well played sir. I won both my games aswell. But one of them was by hailmaryassasination, last ditch and all that jazz so not by skills as i would prefer. To elaborate on my commitment to Rhul. I own most of the Line, about 70% so Im in There. Cheers 4 Rhul

I've been playing a lot of Ossrum lately, having serious issues with Khador jacks though.

Strakhov 1 with a stealth Behemoth in Jaws has been kicking my butt and now he has Sorsha0 too, which means Strakhovs feat and Superiority + Boundless charge from Sorscha.
I think its more than just those combos though. I cant seem to trade well against Khador, my alpha doesnt do enough damage and there's always some skirmishers (kayazy eliminators and Widomakers) that make assasinations very hard.
Its very difficult to keep him out of zones, even with bashers and bulldoze, as whatever I use to push him gets killed the next turn.

Its very difficult to keep him out of zones, even with bashers and bulldoze, as whatever I use to push him gets killed the next turn. Strak1 with S0 does have insane threat ranges. He's been my favourite Khador caster for a while, although part of that is just that I like the model (and the other part is I like movement shenanigans). To my mind his main weaknesses are his lack of offensive buffs and the fact that (outside of his feat) he doesn't do much for infantry, but he mainly only really buffs one jack at a time. So he doesn't handle really high DEF or ARM very well (unless he builds his army to do it for him), and can't really throw all his jacks forwards together so maybe doesn't deal with threat saturation very well (unless he's running a melee-heavy infantry army). I don't really know what to say except that I don't think he's great against gunlines or heavy arm bricks? Sorry I can't be more help.

I was having the same problem against Khador heavy jacks (primarily a Karchev list jammed full of all the jacks he could take) and I finally switched to using my LR list in that matchup.

Mercenary Army - 50 / 50 points
[Ossrum 1] General Ossrum [+28] - Ghordson Basher [9] - Ghordson Driller [10] - Grundback Blaster [6] - Grundback Blaster [6] - Grundback Gunner [6] - Grundback Gunner [6] - Wroughthammer Rockram [14] Thor Steinhammer [4] - Ghordson Avalancher [17]
A little background to the list, its the result of a glacierly slow JM league that started in 2016. We got to 50pts recently but the games are getting too onesided so we're switching to regular 50pts games with 2 lists. A houserule is that all FA caps at 2.
I experimented with hammerdwarfs + sylys instead of the rockram + second blaster.
I'm thinking that a second driller, and either hutchuck, ragman or gorman would help.
Soul Samurai: Its true that Strakhov doesnt seem like a battlegroup caster, but Behemoth and a decimator shooting and 2 fast juggernauts for a turn hurts.
