Borka Kegslayer (*5pts)
* Troll Axer (6pts)
* Dire Troll Mauler (9pts)
Krielstone Bearer and 5 Stone Scribes (4pts)

Really dont know what to take in the last 5 points, any tips? Also, are there any big changes I should be making?

Hm. Well 5 points is a Pyre, but you've already got your Mauler. 5 points is an Impaler which won't be a huge help to the rest of your army but is a solid beast in its own right. 5 points upgrades the Axer to Rok, if you want more heavy beast awesomesauce. 5 point is a unit of Scouts, or a min Bushwhacker or Dygmie unit. Or min Krielwarrior + 1 Caber.

As you already have a few great ways to deal with infantry (Axer, Fens, Fell Caller) and you've already got some tools to use against hard targets (Mauler, Borka, Axer if buffed), I'd say what is missing would be a ranged option, so I would encourage you to go for either the Impaler or the min Bushwhackers.

What you have already looks solid - Iron Flesh + Veil of Mists + Stone Aura turns Fennblades into heavy infantry with amazing DEF, which is great! My only real critique is that you don't *need* an Axer in a Borka list since his feat gives you extra movement already - but it doesn't hurt to have the Axer, and the Axer is a fantastic beast in his own right, especially under the Stone aura.

How bout Janissa Stonetide (3) and Victor Pendrake (2) for your 5 points. I run Janissa in "EVERY" list. I didn't at first then proxied her and... OH MY!!! It's almost unfair how she can affect a game once you get used to her. And Victor is an absolute toolbox. I recommend looking into both.

I'll echo jdripley, and suggest upgrading the Axer to Rök. I think saying he is worth it is an understatement.
