So which looks better too you? I posted a thread regarding the DOW cannons on the general fantasy page and there are three pages on the topic over there. I don't necessarily want this to turn into a DOW cannon debate, I received them from my wife for x-mas and as such pretty much plan on including them. I do of course welcome any and all comments.

LIST A

I'd switch the cursed book for NNB, and drop the power familiar necro for a WL BSB with HA, barded nightmare, SoK and GoB.

I'd take 2 units of 11 ghouls, with one unit of 8, and get a scroll on the periapt necro. Then drop the cannons in favour of a unit of 6 bats, and an 11th knight, give them barrows rather than warbanner. Unless you have damned good fluff, I wouldn't play against cannons.


LIST B
All the same points.
