Whats up guys. Couple friends and me have a weekly warhammer game, mostly just screwin around and such.

Ive been thinking about making a Daemon army, but wanna play a proxy game first. We usually play anywhere from 1000 - 2000 points...usually 1500.

I know nothing about whats needed in the Daemon army, so if someone wants to throw a list together that would be awesome. Especially if you want to throw a list together that would be good against both CSM and Orks...(what they play)

And if anyone is feeling SUPER generous...a 1000-2000 pt Necron list would be cool too. hehe.

jeeez....i love this site. lol

Most people here hate demons...shame on them.....I however dig em.
I play deamons for the fun and not the

The above is purely for fun not serious competition.

I call it the carnival list. The masques makes people dance around and kugath sees how many he can knock down

This is a fun cheese list I play from time to time.

Well there are some key principles you need to know before making a daemon army, after that, its pretty easy to make one.

Never make your plaguebearers more than 5, or 7 if you want to be fluffy, more than 5 (or 7) is just redundant, they sit in objectives and go to ground when shot at, that's about it.

Never ever give wings for DPs unless you want them to be purely CC, its either you wings and CC or no wings but really shooty.

Kugath is subpar imo, i dunno why a good nubmer of daemon players bring him. You're better of with Khorne heralds on chariot, or Juggernaught, or a blood thirster all together.

Screamers are good, never bring em aside from vehicle punching or screening other units from an assault.

lots more to talk about but here's a 1500 list
