I was just looking at come claims that you were making about the WPS comp system...
First off that Dwarves are hit worse for having 4 cannons than Empire is...Not true...The modifiers are the same (-1500 for both). Dwarves are a little less penalized, as Empire is hit harder for the second cannon, whereas dwarfs are hit for the 3rd one.
Second off, that 10 handgunner units isn't penalized enough...100 handgunners is -3000 points. They are hit worse than the equivalent Dwarf shooty units are.
Third that all Cav armies aren't hit enough...5 Units of Knights gives you -600 (+ points of the least expensive non-IC unit with a banner). You also aren't getting any other bonus points that having the infantry blocks give you. (So the max you're getting is probably 2500 out of 6000, and that's with almost no magic. Anything more than a level 1 (With no scrolls) and a warrior priest, and you're going lower). You are also penalized for taking more than one unit of pistoliers. I don't see much of an issue with this.

On the one hand the dwarves are being penalized for being short, squat, unnatractive models. On the other hand the empire requires you to paint poofy shirts, cod-pieces, and feathered caps...
I'd say it's about even.
