It looks pretty good to me. What are you thinking about doing for 1k? I think I would bulk up the warrior unit and sorcerer then add a unit of knights. Not really sure how many points that would be or if you would have enough left over to do much else, maybe a unit of hounds.

Looks like a scary list for 500 points. Let us know how it does!

Fluffwise it doesn't make sense for Khorne marauders to follow a sorcerer and Tzeench warriors.

That being said, it should perform well at that size of game.

I know that about the fluff, but it's my fluff for Sons of the North. Are they Khorne Based? Yes. Is the Army list? Nope.

I want to win and have fun. It's more of a theme anyways.

I'm fine with it as a list, I just wish that GW had some foresight in allowing cross god armies that defy what they say is the lore. I'm all for min maxing in army lists, and I know that doing so often leaves official lore out the window.

Let us know how you fare.

Will do Aerethan.

So far I do have 2 games with it, but I didn't have a musician with my Warriors unit. There was a time, where it would've saved me.

Things I took note of:

Charmed Shield: Can save the day.

Lore of Death: Is amazing.

Marauders w. Flails and MoK: The Charge makes them shine in key situations.

Warriors: Bring them when they need to be brought, they will dominate, but when given the opportunity.

As a side note, saw your juggernaught. WTB warriors and marauder pics kgo.

You'll get those like next month maybe.

I'm painting the characters and big things first.

Sounds right on so far! Marauders w/ flails... the best I've ever hoped for is killing a few more than they do, hoping they run, and running them down. There's usually no outlasting these guys with the numbers that they can have in a unit!

I would be interested to hear how warriors do at this point level. Quite an investment, but they're solid.

Well a 10 man unit is good, a big bulk of scariness you see.

With 20 attacks on the charge it's quite strong. Not to mention their +3/+5

I played against my friend, and well I never had the musician, on the account I realized I was playing with slightly less points and couldn't think of what I was missing.

The musician wasn't needed until one moment, where that +1 CR would have saved my hide.

So that's why I now run them with the musician. Yes, they are deadly, and probably won't need the +1 to often. But whenever that times comes, I rather not be unprepared.

Not to many things can deal with the WS 5 I 5 guys with 2 attacks. It is a force to be reckoned with.

It'd be nice if you could squeeze in a banner for that unit, too... although that may have to wait till 1000 if you're really tight on points here. Another +1 to your CR is always helpful.

Yes, it would be, but this is a 500 point list, not to much can be squeezed in.
