Just want to hear input on my Chaos Daemon army.

Bloodletter x9 with Skulltaker (Chaos Icon)
Bloodletter x5 (Chaos Icon and Instrument of Chaos)
Pink Horrors x7 with Changling and Blue Scribe (Chaos Icon)
Screemers of Tzeentch x5
Daemon Prince (Flight, Instrument of Chaos, Iron Hide, Unholy might, Mark of Nurgle, Cloud of flies, Noxious Touch, Aura of Decay, Breath of Chaos.)
Skarbrand
Flamers x4

Advice?

that group of 5 BL is really small to have an icon, it might not last, I would probably drop that and/or increase unit size...your DP is fat, get on a diet maybe cut one flamer, you can only drop 3 templates on the DS dunno how you use them though.

I'll drop the chaos icon, thanks. I forgot with the flamers is bolt of Tzeentch.

you have screamers for AT, drop that bolt and find a few more pts then you can have 2x3 flamers = death from the sky

give the instrument to the unit of 9.
try and give skull a chariot, only 20 points to double his wounds and add more stats.
the DP is pretty loaded, might be worth cutting him back a bit.

skarbrand is not a good option for the army.
the bloods and DP are the only other real fighting unit that would benefit from him.
against an ork army or any army with combat potential you have just screwed yourself over.

better off with a thirster, you then save points to use elsewhere, and ensure you dont get screwed by fire warriors in combat.

I thinks maybe a juggernaught is better for the taker, then you can keep him with the BLs otherwise he is rocking solo. Either way he becomes a true beast.

I agree with JD on skar, he does look really nice with nettes since they will hit with so many with all their attacks, dunno have never run him.

newsun, no point staying with the bloods, he will end up getting slowed down by them.
the chariot is cheaper and does the same, but gives another wound

all i was thinking is with skar theres more chance a horde army will crush you.
even things like fire warriors and conscripts stand a chace against you while skar's around.

I adjusted thanks for the input. The DP is just too much when I can pay 160pt for soulgrinder. I went 2 units or 10 Bloodletters. 3 flamers, I ended up using the Fateweaver, I understand it's cost, but this things is the reason I won, He couldn't kill the bird. I had 8 horrors with a changling and bluescribe. A skulltaker. and some screamers. I really think I won the game because of we roled Dawn of War. I'm still building, I bought 10 more bloodletter yeasterday, and am in process of putting the Masque and the daemonettes together. To add more troops. I was thinking of building Heralds with chariots, but the screamers and juggernaut are just so expensive.
