Hey mates, why don't you take a look at my army and tell me what do you think about it??

--Skarbrand.

--3x5 Fiends with Unholy might.

--2x11 Daemonettes.
--12 Daemonettes.

--2x8 Hounds of Khorne.

Is more a themmed army than a competitive one, anyways it can give some surprises here and there, the tactic is basically start with the big stuff on the table (fiends and Skarbrand with one unit of hounds) and live the rest in reserve, with some good cover i think i could reach to CC in 2nd turn where thanks to skarbrand the enemy will be ripped off.

So any opinions??

Daemonettes are good in cc but not very good at holding objectives especially when they are not in cover.

you don't get the WTFhax combo of rerolled hits and rending anymore either, so this would be a very tough list to get the job done with. excluding skarbrand, everything in your army is 4 or 3 toughness, all with 5+ invulns, but lacking the rediculous numbers to not just get cut down by plain jane infantry fire.

I've been trying so hard to make fiends work lately, I just can't seem to get past my questions of "what if I'd spent these points on bloodcrushers?" 12" charges with hit and run can make for some rediculous objective contesting though, I'll give you an example.

bottom of turn 6, my turn. fiends move 6", fleet d6, charge 12, hit and run 3d6, to end up on an objective to contest, hoping the game ends there.
that's..... 6+d6+12+3d6, or 22-42 inch move in a single turn, averaging 30" (12 of which ignore difficult terrain). Take that, turboboosting

Drop Skarabrand. Get 1-2 Heralds of Slaanesh with a Chariot. Drop Hounds. Get Mounted Deamonettes (Seekers of Slaanesh). Now get more Deamonettes if you have points left.
