This isnt meant to be a power omg ownface list. But something i can take to tournies with comp scores without getting killed (in score or the battle).

Keeper of Secrets lvl 3
Soul Hunger
Etherblade

The Masque

Herald of khorne
BSB
Great Icon of Despair
Obsidian armor

Herald of Tzeentch
Master of Sorcery
Spellbreaker Rune

Herald of Slaanesh
Siren Song
Torment blade


19 bloodletters, command
Icon of endless rage

19 daemonnettes, Command
Siron Standard

19 Pink Horrors, Command
Icon of Sorcery

6 Flesh hounds of Khorne

6 Flamers of Tzeentch

The Seeker is just a beast in combat, 6 ASF (so Reroll hits), with reroll for wounds, that get no armor saves is just beast. (assuming she lives to see combat), not a horrible caster either.

Mix of the gods in the core choices, the herald and pink horror unit are there for magic support, and the keeper has the +3 to dispell.

Bloodletters with herald to be a facebeating unit.

Daemonettes, are meh, but with the herald they ASF and will reroll against just about everything except elves.

Flesh hounds to hunt war machines

Flamers cause they are amazing, (thinking about possibly dropping this to 2 units of 3).

Comments? To mean? To soft?

The only thing concerning me in the to nasty department is The Masque combine with the banner for nasty leadership dropping.

Right off the bat, if you dont want to get hammered in comp, drop the tryptic of pain. Masque, Depsair Icon, and Keeper is one of the two most abused builds.

If you dont care about that however, the rest of the army is fairly tame, and would be fine on the battlefield. I run a similar build myself, but since I dont care what my opponent plays or what they think of my army, I have no problem running the triad

Yeah i was worried the Trinity would be viewed as cheesy, but meh its minus 3-5 leadership to anything thats in range of both the BSB and masque....

Ok yeah spelling that out made me see why its so nasty.... gluck passing a leadership test considering most anything will be testing on a 3 or 4, and very few on a 5...

heh precisely...this is what I ran at last years ard boyz and won a free army out of it. Wont work with 8th ed as well, but food for thought

Bloodthirster /w Obsidian Armor, reroll stuff, Flaming blade.
Kipper /w siren, torment blade, allure, soul hunger

Is the etherblade really a good buy on the Keeper? It's already Strength 6 armor piercing, so the best armor is only passing on 5s. Maybe there's not a more efficient place to drop 50 points, but I'd look at that for other options possibly...

I thought about it, and with all the rerollable 1+ armor saves running around i do think its a good buy.

Pretty much every lord can run the 1+ setup now.

Ill look at it tho.

I prefer to give the keeper the siren [to force the charge] gaze [no character leadership] and allure [ld test to attack me] with soul hunger [reroll wounds]. Costs a bundle, but likely with the leadership penalties and if you get phantasmagoria off, that big scary character of theirs won't be able to attack you and you can just tear them to shreds.
