Out of curiosity, 'Shark Pool' ?

The Freecompany unit seems rediculously large to me, splitting off a chunk to use as a detachment for the greatswords might be a good plan.  I like the use of the Dwarfs rather than the obligitory HBVG. Unit could be slightly bigger unless there is a cunning plan for them.

The detachment of halberdiers may not be able to to its job of negating ranks, so I'd beef it to about 8 people. You could drop some of that free company mob to get the points. Also, I'd consider a Command group for it.

34 FREECOMPANY??

wow...

Wow... actually i like them this large. they'll die in droves he'll need it this large to avoid panic tests.

swordmen are small by 5 and the greatswords have no deatchments tho don't like that oen bit...

Shark pool; use of back of book lists, chronicles/annual articles & special characters.

I have dwarves because its fluffy.

I have dwarves too, (well in the process of getting them).  Well, I find that they are very versitile.  First off, with leadership 9, they can hold a flank, and  they come with a range of weapon and armor options.  Besides, they're cool.

Well, this may not be a huge issue, but if you're going for authenticity then the White Wolves may not be a good choice.  And definitely not Inner Circle.  It doesn't fit in with the fluff of the army really, but that's your choice.

[The Mad Lord]

I have the White wolves to represent the sigmarite League of the Hammer who acted as Leitdorf's army.
