Hi all,
Been playing around with some thoughts for a daemon army... Here it is

HQ
Herald of khorne on jug, BoBG
Herald of khorne on jug, BoBG

Troops
7 Bloodletters
7 Bloodletters
6 Bloodletters
10 deamonettes
10 deamonettes

Elites
3 Bloodcrushers
3 Bloodcrushers
6 flamers, 1 bolt

Fast
5 flesh hounds
5 flesh hounds

Heavy
Soulgrinder, plegm, thouhge
Soulgrinder, plegm, thouhge

I was thinking to attach 1 herald to each BC sqaud, each wave would identical except one more BL squad in wave 2. Any thoughts? Too little ranged armour popping?
C&C very welcome

This list has too little of everything. I would definately change all troops into plaguebearers, take, fe 4x5 pb. That should free up points for more crushers. I would also support princes over grinders, and I suggest you'd take 2 boltprinces instead of those grinders. Heralds could be replaced with a thirster and fateweaver or something?
Flesh hounds won't really do anything in that small units. Flamers could be like one unit of 4 without bolt.

For starters.

Thanks for the feedback. I realize thay the list lack some "meat". But removing both BL and daemonettes will cripple my attack abilities. Removing the fleshhounds might free up some room for more Bloodcrushers, maybe remove the heralds and add fateweawer?

Hey Stealthy,

The list definitely has possibilities. I'd change some things though. The only thing that is meh is the Flamers IMO. Fiends would be a lot better for the same amount of points.

I'd do this:

110 Herald of khorne, Juggernaut, BoBG

200 4 Bloodcrushers, Icon, Fury, Intrument
135 3 Bloodcrushers, Fury, Instrument
180 6 Fiends of Slaanesh

128 8 Bloodletters
128 8 Bloodletters
168 12 Deamonettes
100 5 Horrors, Bolt, Changeling

120 8 Flesh hounds

160 Soulgrinder, Phlegm
160 Soulgrinder, Phlegm
160 Soulgrinder, Tongue

1749

Basically you get a Soulgrinder extra, the Crushers have wounddistrubutionstuff, the troops are tough and killy enough and the Flamers have been switched out for Fiends.

Hope this is of some help.

heres mine.sorry i dont know the points

Skarbrand or An'grath the unbound(see forge world daemon lords)or at least a blood thirster
Skulltaker on jug

8 blood crushers
6 squads of 16 blood leters
2 squads of 16 flesh hounds

3 daemon princes with iron hide,unholy might,daemonic flight,mark of khorne

3 squads of bloodletters
2 flesh hounds squads without Karanak
bloodcrushers+herald
2 daemon princes

part 2
3 squads of bloodletters
flesh hounds with karanak
bloodcrushers+skulltaker

Thank you all for the suggestions and info. I will go back to the drawingboard to tweek some more. I would like an allcomer army but it shall have a medium chance against GK aswell, thats why I like the khorne units with BoBG.
