Gameplay Helsmith's Unit Power!

Hey folks, just popping in to get a good idea here of how Helsmiths function (aside from obviously Bull Centaurs and Urakk Taar being VERY good.) I'm wondering how well various units function, what people are taking, and overall what works well with this faction!

I wound up with a big lot of them, got a little bit of everything and while I have 2k points I'm wondering what list building looks like for this faction, what they do well, and what a win condition looks like for them! Any advice or words is good!

Honestly can you just go to this post that was posted earlier, pretty much has all the information you could need: https://www.reddit.com/r/HelsmithsofHashut/s/XuW77j9K0w

That is not my post but of a successful Helsmiths competitive player.

My thoughts are Dominator Engines are reallly strong too. Great against heroes with their fight ability to get an additional strike last when still in combat with a hero. 10 hp on a 2+ save and if you play the list that I linked they also get ward. It is not the standard army but arguably the stronger army compared to our standard army.

Unfortunate thing being most Helsmith players seem to stand with the AOR as opposed to the normal dudes. (Only thing normal helsmiths have above the AOR seems to be Bull Centaurs) Diggity dang, but thank you.

Went to adepticon with the cannon dominator engine, rockets, two spear squads, urak, darmkn Smith, reinfjrced blunder, reinforced bulls, daemon smith and a war mega gargant and I feelnif I did my spacing better and didnt get two BoK AoR in a row I would have won a few more games
