I know there have been a lot of Warriors lists recently, but some advice on mine would be appreciated. I used to have a 3k Hordes of Chaos army, and I never won a single game with it or any part thereof, so I'm hoping this 7/8th ed stuff will help me out. So, without any further gilding the lily, here goes:


Heroes
Exalted Hero with Mark of Khorne, mounted on a Juggernaut with an Axe of Battle and Enchanted Shield = 205

Core
5 Marauder Horsemen with Flails and Throwing Axes = 85
15 Chaos Warriors with Shields and Full Command = 270
20 Marauders with Great Weapons = 100
5 Warhounds = 30
5 Warhounds = 30

Special
5 Chaos Knights with the Mark of Khorne and Full Command = 280

Army Total: 1000

As I said before, I have 3k worth of Chaos, so I can pretty much put anything into this list. Thanks!

IMO lose a unit of dogs, the command on the knights, and change the enchanted shield to a charmed shield.
With the 90 points I would mark the marauders with khorn, give the warriors the banner of rage, and get another 5 marauders.

Oh and drop the champ in the knights you dont need him.

Because he has a character riding with them, this is one of the few times when a knight champ is actually a good idea. However yes, points are so tight I'd say he should get the axe.

My thoughts:
+ Consider this for your general: Exalted w/ MoK, sword of swift slaying (ASF), charmed shield, juggernaut. Not more attaks, but far far better attaks with that reroll
+ Decide between flails or t.axes on the horsemen, drop the other one and then buy a musician
+ Warriors don't need their champ, with no character to protect from challenges
+ Drop the knight champ at this points level, and think about dropping the standard as well (but do not drop the musician!)
+ Buy those marauders a musician, and as many bodies as you have extra points for (should be +10 gw marauders). MoK would be lovely but you'll have to drop a dog unit to pay for it (your call, 1 unit of chaff is likely fine at 1000 points, unless you play lots of fanatics or something)

Good luck out there.
