Well not quite 1750 yet, i'm not sure what to do with my remaining 185 pts.

This army is or eather, will be the result of me wanting a good army theme coupled with my computers refusal to play anything but david bowie for a weekend. so a glamed out noise marine army it is.


2 Deamon princes, wings, mark of slannesh lash.

5 units 5 noise marines w/ aspiring champion, asp champ doom siren, sonic blaster powerfist, 3 sonic blasters, 1 bassmaster, icon.

1 unit 10 summoned lesser deamons.

now i have 185 points left over... what should i do with it?

power weapons on your noise champs, otherwise you lose the advantage of that I5 pwep killing things before they can strike back. powerfists are just not too slaaneshi either..

you want a themed army? make the noise marine units 6 guys. not 5. make the demons 12 models.

you have your fluffy slaaneshi list, and leaves you with 134 pts

for 130 you can get 6 raptors with 2 flamers for horde control. or drop 2 icons from NM units and make those flamers meltas because you have a serious lack of anti-tank.

I agree with Ztryder, you do have a lack of anti tank, yes Greater deamons can do it, but its often good to have something else to do it so they can hurt stuff in close combat, in my opinion at least. To that end I'd suggest a predator armed with las cannons and maybe hvy bolters, (if its valid, I haven't got the codex with me) to deal with hordes or anti tank, take this advice as you will

I'd say remove the Lesser Demons, they are trash. Get rid of the personal icons on the NM squads you won't need them without those crap Lesser Demons. Change the PFs to pweps as previously stated. And also as previously stated bump the NM squads up to 6 men. Grab a couple of Oblits for Anti-Tank. With those changes here is what your looking at.

HQ: 2x DP Wings, MoS, LoS 310
Troops: 6x Noise Marines, Blastmaster, 4x Sonic weaps, Champ with Power weapon and Doom Siren 225
6x Noise Marines, Blastmaster, 4x Sonic weaps, Champ with Power weapon and Doom Siren 225
6x Noise Marines, Blastmaster, 4x Sonic weaps, Champ with Power weapon and Doom Siren 225
6x Noise Marines, Blastmaster, 4x Sonic weaps, Champ with Power weapon and Doom Siren 225
6x Noise Marines, Blastmaster, 4x Sonic weaps, Champ with Power weapon and Doom Siren 225
HS: 2x Oblits 150, 2x Oblits 150

But if you only came here for advice on those 185 points. Take 2 more Lesser Demons and a 2 man squad of Oblits. That'll leave you with 9, use those to pick up Melta Bombs on something.

imo blastmasters are way overpriced the most i would ever take is 2.

it might be advisable to use one large unit of 12 NM (still fluffy number to stick with the theme) and use it for assault/counter assault. 6 noise marines arent going to hold up very well in combat against much assault oriented troops like orks/gaunts/stealers as they will either be severly outnumbered or just shred to bits (sometimes both)

Keep the Lesser Daemons. They're surprisingly good if you use them right.

Ztryder has a good idea in enlarging the Noise Marine units. I'd suggest specializing them a bit: Two squads armed for assaults (Champion, Power Weapon, Rhino, Icons), two for anti-Infantry (Sonic Blasters), two for anti-tank (Blast Masters and bolters).

I'd take 2 or 3 Obliterators, they are prizeless when combined with lashes.
Footslogging is a slow way to die. I'd add two Rhinos and give the ACs leading the Rhino mounted squads doom sirens. The footsloggers are simply to slow to get into flaming range.
