This one is not easy IMO I think either the Emporer Karl Franz because he gets a dragon now and wields Gal-Marazor or Ggrimgor Irionhide because hes a combat monster 7A and S7 and always striking first. But, Zacarius from the vampire counts is a really powerful wizard.
Now I've thought about it some more I think Manfred von carstien has to be a contender because hes an vampire who and beasts in combat hes also a powerful wizard who uses one of the best lores of magic in the game.
If we include mandatory bodyguard Im going to have to say lord Kroak. Nigh impossible to kill with shooting, CC or spells, hard as hell temple guard with him and The best magic in the game bar none.
well outside of lord kroak (which is the obvious one IMHO) i think it was tyrion in the last-edition book, but also thorgrim grudgebearer may be better
grimgor ironhide defeated Archaon (i think)
i also managed to take out thats High Elf character (cant remember name) with the huge dragon. aah, happy days...
for effect on a game as a whole i'd have to go with morghur where else can you get loads of high toughness spawn for the cost of a few chaos hound and the free rally is priceless as is the magic disruption and special shooting rules
Close Combat for troops - Valten with Ghal maraz
Close Combat against characters - Crom the conquerer
Long range - The twins from the wood elf rule book
Spells - Lord Kroak
Leadership - Greasus Goldtooth
The Anvil - Thorgrim Grudgebearer
Most effects on a single game - Morghur
Hardest as in one with the most survivability...Thorgrim.
well this is a very tough one but as i see it the choice is split between two characters the one that effects the game as a whole and the ultimate combat monster I would say for game effects its got to be the anvil character for the dwarfs he just does to much stuff for him not to be the top choice plus he has almost no chance of killing himself off with his reroll ability. The ultimate combat monster is indeed a hard one there are so many big nasty characters to choose from but from my experience there are 2 that really stand out and that is archon and my personal favorite the dwarf slayer king. He is so nasty well those are my picks.
