5 fleshounds

5 flamers of tzeentch

nobody??

Im guessing Skulltaker is going with the blood crushers. If he is there is no point in taken a champion. Also how are you going to deal with hordes?

yes, skully is with the juggers
but what do you mean with hordes? to few units?
i don't know that situation really good, becease i am playing fantasy for a month of 2 and i have only fought ogres, so my experiense with tactics at fantasy aren't really good

You can't have more than one of each Banner, the FAQ/Errata changed them to count as magic items, so the normal rules(no duplicates) applies to them now.
Flamers of Tzeentch in a Khorne themed army? Oh well moving on...
Since the list are more like "Khorne heavy" you could swap some bloodletter for daemonettes to deal with hordes easier.
Otherwise some clever movement and multi-charges should help you deal with most horde units.

This army could struggle against heavy shooting/magic armies or large bodycount armies, though Khorne daemons make great fun playing(gotta love Killing blow).

Standard of Chaos Glory is absolutely worthless in 8th edition now.

It used to work that you would subtract how much you lost from your leadership, then take your test, so the banner was pretty sick.

Now you just add what you lost by to your dice roll, making the stubborn banner worthless.

Unless I have been playing them wrong, which is possible

Ouch, really? Well, I hate that banner anyway...

But if it does work, you might be able to pull off a MSU tactic; lots of 15-strong stubborn bloodletters, to get on the flanks as quick as you can, and to just go for kill-count, rather than ranks (a tactic worthy of Khorne, if I do say so myself).

I don't think Bloodcrushers are worth their points. I've said this a lot, but I'll say it one more time: for the same points, you get two Fleshhounds. Bloodcrushers are slightly more offensive, and less survivable, while they take up your rare allotment.

I would say "but there's only one Khorne Rare, so go for it", but I would suggest you just go without and bulk up on Special and Core, except you've taken Flamers...I know they're good and all but...I hate Flamers. They're boring.

Finally, some Furies would help you deal with heavy artillery (one of this army's weaknesses).

Hope that helps.

thanks a lot guys, i hope i can make a new list for my deamons
the only reason for taking the juggers is because i like the models... my flamers of tzeentch will be converted by bloodletter with wings and a weapon (i dont know what to use for it)

The brass bulls are pretty sweet looking. I played against an all-Khorne army with 8 flesh hounds and a herald on a juggernaut, which was pretty tough. What caught my attention tough, were his bases; the juggernaut left hoof prints on the rock he was standing on.

What do you mean by your last comment? What don't you know?

fluffwise my bloodletters will have wings for a better movement, but i dont know what to use for a weapon for shooting, because they will be flamers of tzeentch
maybe flames in there hands or a repeater crossbow from the dark elves.
if they are finished i will let them show on dakka

well, i changed it because of the (***)new FAQ of games workshop

i removed 1 icon of endless war at my bloodletter unit, and added 2 new bloodletters
