It seems a bit weird to have a general with a handgun, a shield, a sword and a relic. Do you have a picture of this model?
Looks like a balanced army, which is a good thing. You're not going too missile or close combat crazy, at the expense of the whole army.
I would have stuck some Ogres or knights in, but artillery can work wonders as well.

Except for the battle wizard (death, pain, torture and severe bullying to scroll caddies) I like it. Some cavalry might be a good addition, but I like infantry armies and they work quite well. Glad to see you're practically not using any cheese either.

@ chem - no models of anything (freinds warhammer book, toke it upon myself to make a killer list), but took handgun because i didn't feel right lossing BS5 when a master engineer is sooooo great for BS4. No cavellry or orgers because i prefer infantry (fluff reason) Makarova (M.I.A) - anti-magic (four dispell with preist and then 2 scrolls), also thanks your thanks are appreiciated. i have nor will ever played this list, and (having no experiance) thought other people (who have actually played the system) should rite a 2,000 list (eg chem think ogres are cool, great write a orger list, i will show my ogre freind, that would be nice) also i would use lore of heavens, rerolls as madatory spell yay  |

One handgun shot at BS5 makes little difference, especially since your unit is probably going to move more often than not. I know WHY you use a scroll caddie, I just think it's a filthy and boring thing to do.  Heavens is good, but was much better when you got Second Sight as your first spell... |

agreed it won't make a differance but looks cool (esspecially captain in handgun unit).
agreed second sight works better (wouldn't know about before or past ect)
one thing thought about 20-25 free company unit... good? bad?

Most people do if they use them at all.
But it's much cooler to have them in a large unit. And it's not like light armour ever made a difference. Because in GW-land, chainmail is as useless as leather armour.
Converting a beard and a talisman should be easy, just greenstuff it.

Yeah, but that's not an excuse to use a rather daft unit everyone else in the game uses.
But that's me and my pathological needs to have different units.
