2000 points of stunties

[Alex the Everchosen]

I was thinking of starting a dwarf army in the future, and wrote this army list. Points values are accurate at the moment, but I was thinking of dropping the runelord for a smith, and wasn't sure what I'd be able to get with the spare points (I don't actually own the army book, I've been borrowing my friend's, and so don't know all the dwarf rules).
Note: This army list will mainly be used in friendly games, and I will usually be battling High/Dark elves and occasionally Warriors/ Daemons.

I play against dwarfs a fair amount. My gaming groups ultra-anvil is a big unit of longbeards with hand weapons and shields. They have seriously taken all kjinds of punishment and withstood it.

Engineers (the upgrade- not the master ones) are practically compulsory for all your warmachines that use the artillery dice. Deadly cannon fire.

My friend takes a runelord, and steals one of my power dice and puts it in his dispel pool, which I think is very cheeky (some master rune, balance i think). were quite a heavy-on the magic gaming group so the runelord has become a must for him (and a thorn in my side).
