hello again everyone, have a few lists here i would like to share with the group. The 1st list has worked just fine, except my flanking units(Knights, Chariot) have not done to well on their own, and that's a lot of points waiting to flank someone. So i will post my First list i have played which has done well, and my new list i have made and yet to play.


List #1
Sorc. Lord
lvl 4
Conjured Homunculus
Spell Familiar
Shield
(MoN when i feel i need to tack it on. Normally with this guy i run heavens, and it has worked out insanely well)

Chaos Marauders (30 )
MoN (Mark of Nurgle)
Flails
Banner
Light armor

Warriors of Chaos (15 -2 units)
MoN
Shields
Banner

Knights
MoN

Chariot

( i understand now i made alot of mistakes points wise and should of added alot of things to the units...i am no pro in Fantasy but i am slowly learning))


List #2

Sorc Lord
Lvl 4
Conjured Homunculus
Spell Familiar
Book of Secrets
Shield

Wulfrik

Chaos Marauders (30 2 units)
MoN
Flails
Full Command

Warriors of Chaos (15 2 units)
Shields
MoN
Standard

This list comes to 1473 (1493 if i throw on MoN onto the Sorc Lord.)

My Sorc can use 5 spells due to the familiar. On top of the book of secrets i think i am set in stone magic wise. The Mara's and chaos hit like a hammer and anvil together. I do understand a All MoN list can get old and boring But it is a solid built wall almost i feel. I think having Wulfrik come onto the table with a unit of 30 flailing Marauders could do some harm.Main reason for the list change, is i am going to be playing against Our token Skaven player. I have played and beat Daemons,Ocrs/goblins, and Lizardmen. The skaven have me worried due to thier large numebrs and that damned Hell Pit Abomination i know he runs((so any hints on beating that thing are welcome lol. Thanks for any comments on the list and as soon as i can figure out how to use this 300 dollar camera..i will post some pics of my models which i am quiet proud of.

The Book of Secrets will turn your Lord into a level 1 sorcerer (check the FAQ). You should also list the lore selected for the Sorcerer - its a required step in list building.

Units should have a musician. For a handful of points, the unit will have an advantage in tied combats, +1 to rally and the ability to make a Swift Reform.

Sorc Lord
Lvl 4
Conjured Homunculus
Spell Familiar
Book of Secrets
Shield

Ok so we take out the Book, In it's place for 25 points i could either place a Musician in the warriors units, Or a dispell scroll. As far as i must declare in the list which lore i was using, i am still fairly new and learning, so i will fix that..simply make 2 separate lists One for Lore of Nurgle and one for heavens.

Lore of nurgle with require your Sorcerer Lord to have Mark of Nurgle, thus increesing his point cost so keep that in mind with that version of the list.
*Edit* I see you already noted that...I guess this is what I deserve for not keeping attention to details.
Oh well...a reminder is always useful eh?

Yes i know that. the second list is 1473 (MoN is 20 points on the Sorc lord ) I have points to spare for 2 separate lists.

Also have you considered the Infernal Puppet? that thing is pretty evil both as a anti-wizard weapon and to keep your own Sorcerer alive.

I have read what it does and yes, it is a amazing little toy. I also enjoy having 5 spells to cast (most of my friends don't expect it first time we play lol) And most of our Magic phases are like a chess match with casting and dispelling. My favorite thing so far, is 2 games ago i had 3 comets just cooking away on the table. and the next round All three went off it was beautiful lol

Heh!
Can't really add much else about the army list(not a Warrior of Chaos player myself), though possibly some playing around with points and magic banners could prove intresting.
I wish you more good luck when calling down those space rocks!

Ty much Sir, and if i may add a off comment.. Love that Stormraven your building in your photos l

Now i ask the rest of the community, Does the second list seem as if it could handle the hordes of the skaven? What is a good tactic or item or spells and such to battle the HPA (hell pit abomination)

Then I have to add a off-topic thank you, may the mods smite me down gently for this heresy!

I got skavens myself so I might aswell add my opinion on that question also..
It should be able to handle the normal rats, though weapon teams and hellpits could become an issues...
Some type of flaming attacks and a cheap unit or two of warhounds could help against those, if the become a constant problem for you though.

I prefer this list for the variety of it, though I agree that it could use musicians everywhere, and I think for theme I myself would go all nurgle all the time. On your level 4, that is a charmed shield, isn't it? And on your marauders, the light armor is really not doing much for you besides costing 30 points, I'd look there for easy points.
