I'm thinking with the new dex of making an EC army (to play something new and opposite of my World Eaters) and I'm not sure how to go about making an army. I like noise marines but I've seen debates where they are better off without sonic blasters and just a CCW squad of 10 because of I5. I also wouldn't mind a sorcerer of Slaanesh for fun (I know he can't make noise marines troops and I've considered running a lord with some new raptors for cool factors). So in short, just wondering what people think of a full slaanesh noise marine list now with the new dex.

I cant speak for the build or tactics but running a pink or purple heavy metal CSM army with subwoofers sticking off of everything is a win in my book!!!

My EC list has changed. its now going to look something like this.

HQ -
Lucius
Sorcerer on bike

Troop -
x2) NM x6 all with sonic blasters
x2) NM x6 with doom siren on champs and Votlw In a Rhino with Dirge Casters (one will only have 5 so Lucius can hitch a ride)

FA
drake with bale flamer

bikers x5 with two melta guns and Votlw (sorcerer goes here)

HS - Defiler with dirge caster and with the heavy flamer traded out for CCW.

Allies
HQ -
Harold of Slannesh

Troop -
Daemonettes x11

HS -
Slannesh Daemon prince with wings.

I've kept everything in multiples of Slannesh Sacred number. I realize the book doesn't mention them anymore but I think those things are mantatory for actual Noise marines squads and Daemons. The DP is my primary wave for daemonic assault and the harold and daomettes will be the secondary wave. The two sonic blaster squads are objective sitters, while everyone else tries to get it done in HTH.

This is the plan anyway. Fortunately I have most of the models to pull this off. This list will come in just under 2000 points.

Erm... I think its Herald...

Ha ha ha... umm yeah that.
