I recently recieved and painted the doomrider model, and im wondering how to represent him on the TT.

I have three idea:
1.) Daemon Prince w/ wings, MOS, Doombolt. Wings represents his bike that is not bound by the restrictions of the material universe, MOS is obvious, doombolt represents the plasma on his bike. Thankfully I haven't based him yet so I can build a scenic base high enough to no be cheesy (though it would be my first attempt at such)

2.) Lord on bike w/ MOS, daemon weapon, plasma pistol. All of this is obvious.

3.) Sorc on bike w/ MOS, plasma, and Warptime. I think this would probably be the most competitive option, but it might be a little confusing.

Numbers 1 and 2 would be accompanied by some bikers

Ask your friends if you can use his old rules. He's very hard to represent well in the lame new codex.

*Edit* Cheese beat me.

Other than that ^ I think two might work, that way he'd have blissgiver, the PP, Twin-Link bolters and the bike.

I could also take a combi-melta for 10 points, and make the DW a PW.

You can also still take the Plasma Pistol, if you wanna pay the price.

Yeah, but that would be a really expensive chaos lord for something im adding for flavor. Even the combi-melta is a bit OTT, probably just a slaanesh lord on a bike with a PP would be about adequate.

Additional options
Chaos Lord
+ Mark of Tzeentch (4+ inv)
+ Daemon Weapon (Range 24" Str4 AP3 Assault D6 + still can be used in CC)
+ Daemonic Steed (+1A counts as jump infantry) (bike would also work but I was trying to match what he could do)

(total 175pts)

I would use the rules for Khan and use the normal space marine codex. That way you could field bikes as troops and still be able to take some rapters, erru, umm I mean assault marines.

I like that idea, I also like doom rider a lot.

Or you could do a ravenwing army and use the Jetbike HQ's rules.

"Out of the mists of chaos he rides, bike in his crotch and sword at his side!
DOOOOOOOOOOOOOM Rider!
Doom Rider.
Na na, na na.
He fights his own war, takes his own track, If he doesn't bail he might make his points back!
DOOOOOOOOOOOOOM Rider!
Doom Rider.
Na na, na na.
Son of Slaanesh, full of desire, He does cocaine and his head's on fire!
DOOOOOOOOOOOOOM Rider!
Doom rider.
Na na, na na.
Fights with fury of a dozen men, Spends two turns on the field then he's gone again...
DOOOOOOOOOOOOOM Rider!
Doom Rider.
Na na, na na.
His bike squeals as it ploughs on through the nearest guard, His skull is flaming as his daemon sword gets hard!
DOOOOOOOOOOOOOM Rider!
Doom Rider.
Na na, na na.
He's a killer and he's bursting out for fun! Screaming off, now he's gone, someone rolled a one!"
