It is always refreshing to see people using alternative load outs of frequently used battalions. The mini war gaming community as a whole tends to put on blinders to other battalions and builds. Your list could work well. I personally haven't seen Thunderquake preform well when not at 2k, but I think this is a solid 1.5k version. You would probably be better off dropping the Bastiladon for an other Steggadon and bringing more Razordons or Skinks. Often times when I see the Trog version of Thunderquake Starhost it with two Steggadon & one or more maxed units of Skinks for the steggy synergies. Obviously you can't fit all of that, but I am pretty sure a Steggadon and extra Razordon should have more output than the Bastiladon. Unless your dice are super hot.
The problem is that i have only 2 steggadons so if i use both later i can't summon the engine of the gods so is it worthy?
That is very fair. I think the list as it should do alright, I am just always over zealous for Razordons.
I am totally agree with your advice and I love razordons too xD, they could saturate a lot in big groups with the shoots. If I had 3 steggadons i would follow your advice xD. My first idea was 1 engine ,1 steggadon and 1 bastiladon but it would be 1520 and it would be illegal :'( that's the reason I have chosen the troglodon. I had thought not using the astrolith and with that sacrifice I could use the engine, steggadon and bastiladon but I think it isn't worthy
I have played that exact list a few times and it worked well. It probably wouldn't in a tournament, but it sure works in casual games.
I hate this tournament... now they have changed to vanguard and i couldnt use thunderquake :'( maybe i will use shadowstrike but only 2 dinos
