1500 point doubles battle, 750 points each, shared FOC. I think the following is the plan for the two army lists:

Keeper Of Secrets 200

3 Fiends 90
3 Fiends 90

7 Daemonettes 98
7 Daemonettes 98

10 Seekers 170


Great Unclean One, cloud of flies 165

5 Plague bearers 75
5 Plague bearers 75

Daemon Prince, mark of nurgle, iron  hide, daemonic gaze, cloud of flies 165
Daemon Prince, mark of nurgle, iron  hide 130
Daemon Prince, mark of nurgle, iron  hide 140


What do people think?

You will have issues popping armour, but for the ability to stay alive you should do ok.
The slaanesh list is pretty decent for its points.

However, nurgle troops are great, but nothing else nurgle really does alot.
Unless its a prince with wings.
Also, might be worth dropping gaze from the princes and giving one breath.

that combined list look slike hell on wheels.

looks like it will do well. the only thing that bugs me is if you loose one whole part of your force...like lets say all your elietes get killed or all your heavys go home for the day...then your in trouble. but i doubt it will come to that...9 feinds and 3 princes at 1500 seems scary to me. good luck with your game

Thanks, but i don't think theres much i can do about losing a whole part of my force, i mean daemons don't have loads of anti-tank so this is trying to make the most of what they do have, as you said bad things like that can happen. Last week I played a simular nurgle list but with ultramarines, we were against double imperial guard with 3 Valkyries and 3 tanks, one dodgy deepstriking of a daemon prince, one locked in combat from the second turn with 20 troops and one killed by the scary amount of guns.

As you can imagine the rest didn't go too well.

The only solution to this problem i can see is not to play daemons.

looool yeah, i guess you just gotta have fun with it, as the ponits cap is a bit limiting to what you can do, hopefully the dice gods will smile adn you can do a decent run of it, but i still think you can loose a few things and still be a powerful force

When I look at the combined list for this, I do not see a viable 1500 point Daemon force. If you are going to run 3x DP with MoN, then I think you need to also run a KoS to go with the GUO.

To get 100 points for the swap from The Masque, lose a squad of Daemonettes and Fiends. Use the excess to combine the Daemonettes into one squad and add a few models. 5 Daemonettes are good for dying, and that is about it. If you want to use them to cap objectives, then take PB with your partner instead.

In the nurgle list I would lose Gaze, Breath, Breath for Noxious touch on all 3 and Cloud of Flies on the last prince. Then use the excess to buff up the PB unit. This list still lacks shooting, but at least it can murder opponents in CC. I think what you really want is wings on both princes - transfer one prince to the Slaanesh player imo to do it since a Slaanesh prince with Pavane and hide is cheap too.
