Hello, my mate convinced me not to start another 40k army, and instead start fantasy so he can finally use his Lizardmen again. After browseing the the internet, I've decided on an all cavalry Warriors of Chaos

Anyway, here's my list, no doubt it awful, but the army would look really cool.


LORDS
Chaos Lord..........................................................365
Shield - Daemonic Mount - Runesword - Armour of Damnation
+1 s ws a

HEROS
Exalted Hero........................................................191
MOK - Axe of Khorne(45) - Shield - Chaos Steed
+1s

Chaos Sorcerer......................................................160
Level 2 - MOT - Disk of Tzeentch

CORE
Marauder Horsemen...................................................79
5 Horsemen - Spear - Shield - Standard

Marauder Horsemen...................................................79
5 Horsemen - Spear - Shield - Standard

Marauder Horsemen...................................................174
10 Horsemen - Spear - Shields - Standard

Warhounds...........................................................36
6 warhounds

Warhounds...........................................................36

SPECIAL
Chaos Chariot.......................................................120

Chaos Knights.......................................................380
8 Knights - Lances - Standard

Chaos Knights.......................................................380
8 Knights - Lances - Standard

Looks pretty solid, nothing I can see that I would change really.

Hey there welcome to those that do not care much for order and are led only by the strongest of out kind

So ya here are some things the chaos chariots suck sort of compared to other things so drop those also the models suck.

Give those knights back their ensorcelled weapons they get +1 str with those all the time where as lances only 2+ str on the charge so ya give them their weapons back.
Also mark them mot and tz are well worth it extra attacks and ward save is good times since you take ward and armor saves not like in 40k where its one or the other.

Try this out for your chaos lord

Chaos lord 375
Mok
Talisman of preservation
Helm of many eyes
Rending sword
Jugger

Basically he re rolls to hit because he has asf he re rolls to wound because of the sword.
He has a 1+ armor save and a 4+ ward and a jugger those things rock.

You need a bsb since warriors just need one since its a good excuse to have an effective hero.
I run mine on foot but I suggest try one just mount him.

Exalted Hero 201
BSB
MOT
Talisman of Endurance
shield
Iron curse icon
Steed

or


Exalted Hero 205
Bsb
MOT
Halberd
Talisman of Endurance
charmed shield
Iron curse Icon
Steed

Those do pretty well on foot might do well on a pony.

What points level is this for?

Im guessing 2k ish 2.2k maybe didnt do the math sorry.

Maybe down size the knight units to 6 men standard musician and a mark maybe and add another unit of knights.

Maybe give the sorcerer armor of fortune yes gis armor will suck but he will have a 4+ armor and a 4+ ward that should keep him alive for a while.

The idea would be put the lord with khorne knights and then go mess stuff up the hero with tz knights and just ya go mess up the enemy.

This sint the most competitive list but it does work and it hits pretty hard

Also make sure your core is 25% or more dogs dont count towards that.

Yeah its 2000 points.

I wanted to make an army, that if I get the charge off, the enemy will flee in terror.

So I gave the BSB the totem pole, to cause fear on everything in LOS. The Lord will go with the Khorne knights, and the BSB will go with the tzeentch knights.

Im going to be keeping the sorceror out of the way trying to cast pandemonium.

Seems like a good combo, cause loads of wounds on the firt turn, win combat, enemy can't use the generals leadership, and they run

171 points to play with, maybe more monsters? Someone told me that trolls are better than ogres, and seeing as the GW ogres are ridiculously expensive, I think I might hack the river trolls apart and make them more chaosy.

No need to buy the Chaos Ogers, if you have some spawn bitzs and get a Oger Kingdom bullbox your already there.

Awh man, Your a genius. I can't believe I didn't think of that.

I don't want them all to be REALLY chaosy, more like the cavalry of a tribe, with the chieftain as the lord, the bsb to be his son, the sorceror to be the shaman, and the knights to be the heavy cav nobles or something like that.

So I might just glue on shields and stuff to make it look like heavy armour and maybe a few horns to show they are chaosy

Change banner of wrath to rapturous standard so much better on tz warriors.

Musicians on the warrior units are not a bad idea.

The BSB is illegal in the second list you cant have a standard and gear on him its gear or a banner.

Drop the doom totem not worth it.

Get a ward save on the sorcerer he needs it since a cannon ball will make him go bye bye.
