Should I add another Shaman, a Big Boss or a Battle Standard Bearer?

That sums up what I'm all about.
needs more what?
oh wait, you mean beastmen
the op has those
I've tried the 14 Executioners with ASF banner, and you can also give them the AP banner for an additional boost. In all honesty, sometimes the Hag is better than the unit in that case. I'd also suggest using a Cauldron for the extra attack. The problem is when you run into an opponent who's patient enough to bait your Hag out.
EDIT - Cauldron of Blood can't move anymore, but it's not that hard to protect (especially with the build in 4+ ward save). In almost every list I have a unit of Shades and 2 Dark Riders, and I just have one unit loiter between the Cauldron and any threats. Also, if you have a RBT they can cover the Cauldron.
grimgor
ironhide
also, reduce the size of your spider riders, nix a goblin unit, put in a shaman at least, if not 2
f you have the points, take a savage boar boyz unit
Those are options, but the list you got doesn't suck either. I'd take the BSB, as leadership issues are known to crop up in O&G armies.
I would reduce the spider riders to 5. If you do want boar boyz, I'd drop a NG unit. All depends on your tactics and whether or not you like how boar boyz play.
Losing the giant is another option as well, since they tend to be shooting magnets. (But they're awesome to build, so go with it anyways.
Fuck
you
you play dark elves
the orcs need something
it's just that that something is essentially a bloodthirster that makes a unit of blorcs horrifying

I think there are about 48 saurus with hand weapons.

still think you should cut a gobbo unit for some boarz, but other than that much better
also, grimgor
Greenskins without Grimgor? Madness.
Well, you can move it like you move a normal warmachine as far as I know, but it's not the old-style Altar where you had to cart the sucker along.
Its not Chaos Dwarfs. Post was very clear that the next Army release for WHFB was Skaven. There's just "something else" for Fantasy first.
You want something precise or approximate?
Oh, oh, post a list with a Hellcannon!
Shooting is for pussies. Khorne doesn't approve.
But it's like a challenge! Keep your shitty-ass Dwarfs alive or you lose 102 VP!
My list changes constantly depending on who I'm playing and what the magic scene is like with that particular person. My most common opponent by far is Draeven, and we have an understanding on magic, usually limiting to 2 level 2 casters at 2k-2250 games. We also don't do special characters around these parts.
Here's what I'd take under that assumption at 2k:
Exalted Hero
Chaos Sorcerer
Chaos Sorcerer
Core
Chaos Hounds x5
Marauder Horsemen x5
Marauder Horsemen x5
Chaos Warriors x12
Special
Chaos Knights x5
Chaos Knights x5
Chaos Ogres x3
Dragon Ogres x3
Thats probably what I'd take if I was trying to win without being a complete prick.
If I was going for the Full Beard, I would be dropping the warriors to either upgrade the Ogres to Dragon Ogres, or take more Knights of Khorne w/Banner of Wrath in their place. Would also either bump the Exalted up to Lord w/Runesword and Runeshield, or take a 3rd sorc with the book of secrets, depending if I needed more fightey or more magickey. Dropping the warriors does require finding points for a 3rd unit of Marauder horse to make the min core. Would probably unload the hounds in that case. Banners become optional if points are scarce. Banner of Rage and Blasted Standard are my priorities, other standards/standard bearers in units could go if I needed the points.
When I'm feeling jaunty, I sometimes make room to slip two spawn in. Otherwise I basically avoid rares.
If I wanted to play it soft, I would unload the Dragon Ogres for spawns and Marauder footmen of Khorne w/plate & noodle.
Whoever said we needed Khorne's approval?
I agree with this build, except to point out that it would be your full 75 point allotment. At least as long as I remember correctly.
And also I have to agree with the crossbow-becoming-magic-hand-weapon thing, except to point out there is the Master Rune of Grimm (or somesuch) that A.) makes it a magical Great Weapon and B.) allows further runes to be inscribed.
Holy shit why does no one take Razordons. It's a fucking M6 Helblaster that doesn't jam.
