More fighting units would be good.

On the other hand, it's a gunline and maybe you need some magic against an enemy with even better shooting or who is good at avoiding your firepower.

Yeah, can decide on the magic or the 2 chariots :(. Probably gonna be a preference thing to most people.

You could remove one bolthrower and replace it with an eagle which will give you more time to shoot at the enemy, split the swordmasters into units of 6 or 7 :D and use the points saved to mount your prince on a chariot to give you some maneuverability.

I could remove a bolt thrower for an eagle, and have considered it, but i would like to believe that 1 eagle and a unit of shadow warriors should do well at march blocking. I can change the unit of sword masters into two units of 7, is that better? Right now i have them bunkering the banner of sorcery and like the extra modles to soak up shots. I don't have enough experience on that subject though :(.

I'd recommend swapping the white lions for phoenix guard and moving banners so that sorcery is on the phoenix guard, balance on the swordmasters and lion standard on the spears.

You also need to make your characters tougher to kill. I've found that my characters are better used by absorbing damage than inflicting wounds. Mount both of the characters, give the prince the helm of fortune and the noble the enchanted shield. Putting them in the phoenix guard gives you a unit that will be tought to inflict wounds on.

I'd also recommend changing you mage setup to include the Ring of Fury. 2 Level 2's with Silver wand/Ring of Fury and Seerstaff/Scroll is my perfered setup for medium magic.
