I am currently working on doing a combination of Skaven and Daemons, specifically of the Nurgle and Slaanesh variety. Now, the nurgle part is pretty easy; combine Daemons and Pestilens. The Slaanesh half is what is really interesting to me though. Now, I really clan Clan Skryre, and the models are good and fairly cheap for what you get. So, I'm going to be building Slaanesh Skryre. The current plan for the list is:
1x Daemon prince of Slaanesh
1x Keeper of Secrets (because the special rule is freaking hilarious.)
1x Arch Warlock
2x Warlock Engineers
1x Herlad of Slaanesh of Exalted Chariot
1-2 Warp Lightning Cannons
1x Storm Fiends with 1x Grinderfists and 2x Rattling Guns\ 1x Warpflayers and 2x Warpfire (probably magnetized.)
1x Warpgrinder Weapon Team
1x Warpfire Thrower Team
2-3 squads of Daemonettes
1-2 Chariots of Slaanesh
Now, obviously this won't all hit the field at once in most scenarios, but I love the idea. The Arch Warlock was down on his luck, having been split off from the larger clan force he had been a part of, and a cohort of Slaanesh takes notice. The Keeper of Secrets whispers in his ear (probably metaphorically,) and tells him that he will find unlimited power if he gives himself to Slaanesh. The ArchWarlocks Pride, combined with his greedy thirst for knowledge, leads him to take the deal, and the warbands join forces under the banner of slaanesh. Does that sound plausible, or am I spitting on the fluff with my wild ideas?
EDIT: Oh, and speaking off, I'm trying to find a name for my Daemon Prince. It beat me and my friends at Cards Against Humanity (With totally random cards,) so it has earned a name. I know I want the title to be 'The Gamb;er,' but I don't have anything else. Ideas?
