I went for Kiwi's it seems to be the most combat ready slightly above Sever's for its increased value against monsters.

I just noticed that Two of the BSB's have Runic Standards (notice ones with only 3 runes) the other two are runed up Thanes with a mundane standard.

I never give my BSB runic standards as his sole job is to give the re-roll break test bonus and the +1 CR - just use him as a standard character choice. If you want runic standards thats what Longbeards, Hammerers and Ironbreakers are for as they can take anything up to 50pts worth. BSB with Runic standards have a maximum AS of 4+ making them too easy to kill

Voted for myself, well because I want to win :lol: . Your guys' other builds are fine, but if I have a BSB that can have as many points of a runic standard I'd take the opprotunity. If I want a souped up Thane, then get just that... A Thane!

I play Slayers more than my Dwarfs so I'm used to a BSB with NO ARMOUR SAVE. 4+ AS, what a wimp. :D

a slayers head often deflects more blows than armor :), i use a BSB for the reroll like Kiwi stated earlier, so i tool him up to live first and then have a little hitting power.

Thanks for all the participation.
