Hello,

Right have played with broken Mono Tzeentch daemon list and whilst it was a laugh to play and my opponent enjoyed the game too. I just find it un-interesting to play so i have been thinking about another concept list. Here goes.

Karios - 625

Herald - MoS, Spell Breaker - 185

Herald - MoS, Spell Breaker - 185

25 Horrors - Standard, Icon Of Sorcery - 327 (Herald here)

20 Horrors - Standard, Icon Of Sorcery - 267 (Herald here)

17 Horros - Standard, Icon Of Sorcery - 219

5 Flamers - 175

= 1995

PD = 17 DD = 10 + 2 Scrolls

And this list isn't a broken mono-Tzeentch list as well? Karios, flamers, heralds and large blocks of horrors are about as bad as you can get, especially at 2000 points or less. You have basically 50% of your army tied up in characters.

Drop the ultra-chicken and then re-evaluate things. Screamers would be nice to see, and the Changeling provides a pinch of character that isn't related to more magic.

I was thinking something like this, a horde of horrors:

H: Herald of Tzeentch - chariot, master of sorcery = 200
H: Herald of Tzeentch - chariot, master of sorcery = 200
H: Herald of Tzeentch - BSB, spell breaker = 165

C: 29 Horrors - banner of sorcery, changeling, standard, musician = 440
C: 20 Horrors - banner of change, full command = 295
C: 20 Horrors - banner of sorcery, full command = 285
C: 10 Horrors = 120

S: 5 Screamers = 150

R: 4 Flamers = 140
-------
1995 [14PD / 8DD]

This is deliberately not min/maxed and still seems powerful as hell! But I think it would be more fun to play with / against ... This is also my first time building a daemon army and I think I need to make it my last, that book is drunkenly powerful O_O

Yeah i must admit Ultra-chicken is good and if you wanted to play competitively he is prob the only way to go as to tool up a LOC
it comes out at more points! Dont know were the logic is in that but he hoe.

What about a even more themed list.

Blue Scribes - 81 (Very Flavourful??)
Herald - MoS, Flames of Tzeetch, Disk - 185
Herald - MoS, Spell Breaker - 165
Herald - MoS, Flames of Tzeetch - Disk - 185

29 Horrors – Banner of Sorcery, Changeling, Standard, Muso = 440
25 Horrors – Banner of Change, FC = 355
20 Horrors – Banner of Sorcery, FC = 285

3 Screamers – 90

6 Flamers – 210

Total = 1996

Yea, that works about similar to the one I posted, though with chariots I like to think mine offers a smidge of combat teeth as well, for flanking in support of the horror blocks when they lock somebody down. Blue Scribes are vaguely a level 1 wiz, right? So the overall levels are about even.

You've got a better ratio of screamers to flamers for sure, though I like the little 10-man horror unit as a quasi-speed bump or random quarter claimer, etc.

- Salvage

The Blue scribe get to choose a lore out of the 8 and then roll for a random spell and it is cast as a bound power level equal to the spells casting value. Nasty suprise first time against someone!

Hmmm might consider Chariots but not sure i like me Heralds on a platform where a cannon ball or anything str 7 wipes them.

Will see how its play's though.

looked over the rules for Screamers again and i quite like them they are really annoying units.

Maybe i missed a post or something, but where is the different concept at? Just another Mono Tzeentch list.

Try adding some flesh hounds, or a block of Blood letters. That could be a different concept.

But i do like when people play an all Mono DoC army. I like Boss_Salvage's list.
