2 Greater Daemons of Slaanesh

18 Seekers

6 Fiends

56 Daemonettes (18, 18, 20)


No shooting, no psychic, all fleeting, all rending (except for fiends, which are hit'n'run).Fiends and seekers have 12" charge, daemonettes ALWAYS strike at I6.

Basically this list just has to withstand a round of shooting, and then descend. Invul and cover helps, like cover helps everyone - unless you're being charged by daemonettes.


I don't have this list, my friend does. I'm building up an eldar force at the moment - my current space marines would be massacred against all of that rending. Eldar list is very mobile/2 prisms/scatter laser spam, so it will be interesting. I obviously have no need to deploy in cover... and come to think of it, my eldar list is fully mech anyway.

The problem is actually standing up to a round of shooting. I've seen 20 Guardsmen gun down 15 Daemonettes in one turn... with lasguns. It got messy when they brought out the heavy bolters.

I think you would be alot better off with a full roster of Fiends, and while the KoS are nasty, two heralds on chariots = 5 more wounds each for the opponent to deal with. Also, the KoS is going to have a hard time getting screened by just about anything, and Heralds on chariots are much faster.

I've had a squad of space marines charged by Seekers, and the killed only one SM. the 9 that were left then proceeded to beat them to death with their bolter stocks.

Rending really isn't what it used to be, and slannesh tends to be really easy to gun down to a size where you will only get 1-2 rends, which means that the demonettes/seekers will have to absorb hits, and at str 3, 5+inv, they will ususally lose combat, and have to take more 5+ saves, meaning that the slannesh unit will soon disappear.

play him with your space marines, they have a good chance vs this list, unless you are geared for all assault.

My marines are definitely all geared out for assault.

All assault, all toughness 3....all dead as soon as they arrive.

Not workable.
