Two Lists, very much the same, working on a thought

Heres my thought, In the usual list I take "Go big or go Home" is what I call, meaning I take five warmachines (two OG's, two GT's and a Cannon for good measure.) I put in a unit of 14 Quarrallers to use as my only infantry shooting unit to kill off the odd knight or chaff, but what I am noticing is that these guys just don't kill enough for their points (173pts) (I also can't make them rangers or give them GW because with this type of list, something has to give pts wise, and its the no GW's on Quarrallers) and it got me thinking. Why not add in some characters? Maybe two Slayers and another Master Engineer?

Here's my current list:

Runelord, Balance, Spellbreaking, Resistance, Stone, Furnace, Shield
BSB, Gromril, Resistance, Challenge
Master Engineer, Stone
30 GW Warriors FC
30 GW Warriors FC
29 Hammerers FC
14 Quarrallers, Shields, Mus
Str 5 GT, Accuracy, Engineer
Str 4 GT, Accuracy, Engineer, Burning
Organ Gun
Organ Gun
Cannon, Forging, Engineer

or


Runelord, Balance, Spellbreaking, Resistance, Stone, Furnace, Shield
BSB, Gromril, Resistance, Challenge
Master Engineer, Stone
Master Engineer
Dragon Slayer
Dragon Slayer
30 GW Warriors FC
30 GW Warriors FC
29 Hammerers FC
Str 5 GT, Accuracy, Engineer
Str 4 GT, Accuracy, Engineer, Burning
Organ Gun
Organ Gun
Cannon, Forging, Engineer

So I'm thinking those dragon slayers will . . . (I think) work better for protecting my warmachines/redirecting and a second reroll on the artillery dice is always nice to have as well.

Thoughts?

    I have begun to consider getting a Master Engineer myself. He seems very useful in this edition in comparison to the last one.

    Also, I have heard of a lot of players using a long dragon slayer as a protector, and I guess if you angle him right a redirector. I am not sure how well he'll work out as he isn't that touch and a lot of WM hunters will have bows or spears but, he's worth giving it a go at least.

    Let us know how you get on with the changes or if you decide to try them out.
