2,250 point Mounted Army

Apparently there is a Warhammer tournament next weekend which I hope to play at. The gaming store that the guys who introduced me to the game frequent went out of business and is reopening under new management and with a new name (it used to be called Ground Zero Games - it was named so before 9/11 so its a bit unfortunate - but the new name is Phoenix Games which has a much better connotation all around). The place used to be a dump before but hopefully it will be better run this time around. In any case the tournament is for armies of around 2,250 points which give me more room to play with. I thought this would be a great opportunity to experiment with an mounted army of some sort so I developed a list as follows:

Lord Choice:
Templar Grand Master 235 pts
(with Laurels of Victory +55 (improves your combat resolution stats), Holy Relic +45 (an improved chance to escape damage if hit))

Characters:
Captain of the Empire 128 pts
(with Dragon Bow +25; lance +4; full plate armor +8; shield +2; Barded warhorse +14)

Battle Standard Bearer 157 pts
(Banner of Sigismund +60; full plate armor +8; Barded Warhorse +14)

Battle Wizard 125 pts
(with two Dispel Scrolls +50 and a warhorse +10)

Special choices:
Knights of the Inner Circle X12 models 372 pts
(with Full Command and Steel Standard +20 pts)

Outriders x5 models 144 pts
(with Full Command and the champion equipped with a Hockland Long Rifle +10)

2X Great Cannon 200 pts
(Yes, yes, I know the cannons aren't mounted, but Cannons go BOOM!)

Core units:
Knightly Orders X12 models 366 pts
(with Full Command and Banner of the Demonslayer +50 pts)

Knightly Orders X12 models 326 pts
(with Full Command and Banner of the Duty +10 pts)

Knightly Orders X6 models 162 pts(with Musician and Champion - no standard)


This army is much more mobile and much faster than my first list. The addition of the Cannon make it a scarier prospect to face down. A mostly mounted army with no infantry will be a bit more difficult to coordinate to make sure the knights are not outflanked but it will scare the bejezuz out my opponents.
