Hey guys! I need some advice on CoS! With the new Cities of Sigmar book, I can finally bring my old Empire models out from storage! I'm want to use Greatswords as a mainstay of my list because I love their model. What do you guys think of them? I heard they do good damage but are expensive. Here is my 2k list.

The plan is to play defensively and whittle down the enemy with my handgunners. The general will be buffing the Handgunners, making them hit on 2+/2+. The Greatswords will act as my defensive line with the Demigryphs as flankers. I'm thinking changing the Handgunners into Crossbowmen instead due to the range and extra shots. I'm also debating on maxing out the Handgunners by exchanging the Demigryphs. What do you guys think?
