KT tourney this Saturday at my FLGS following the 2013 GW rules thought I would try out my DE so here is my list

3 Reaver Jetbikes
Cluster Caltrops Stealth
Heat Lance Shrouded trying to keep 2+ on my special weapons

3 Kabby Trueborn
Splinter Cannon
Shardcarbines

3 Bloodbrides
Razor Flails Fleshbane

I like the large asortment of special rules the DE can just pick up on the battlefield or start with and with everything being a seperate unit they can do this fairly easy

Im not sure who should be my leader im thinking the flails because they will be running around road housing everything but im concerned they might be too killy and get picked off right away but she should be fine after she is in their face with the rerolls to hit and the 2+ Id with 4ish attacks and 4++ in CC

The only main problem I see with this is not enough bodies to deal with the more hordey armies or just a tau gunline last tourney I had a guy bring 30 shoota boyz with 2 rokits with tank hunter fnp and shrouded which was painful

Id lose the bloodbrides they will die as soon as something shoots at them, I would probably also drop the trueborn and use the points to get a talos that way you have something tough running around and he also has a TL sc base so he can essentially fill the role of the trueborn and the bloodbrides, but be way harder to take down. I really like the reavers though, you may want to go with a blaster just for some insta-gibbin goodness incase someone brings paladins or something. hope this helped and best of luck!

Hate to pop your bubble but you cannot take a talos in KT he is a heavy support the foc for the gw KT event is
0-2 troops
0-1 elites
0-1 fast attack

As much as I would love to take a talos and give it iwnd that would be illegal

Sory but you can't have 2 elites so you can't have both true born and blood brides

Woops forgot my own post lol ill rework the list pribly dropping the trueborn for more brides or just some vanilla Kabalites

Ok list reworked

3 reavers
Cluster Caltrops stealth
Heat lance shrouded

3 Bloodbrides
Razor Flails Fleshbane

5 kabalite warriors
Shredder

Should I reverse ir and take 5 wyches with stuff instead of the kabbys? I tossed in a shredder because it was either that or haywire in the Bloodbrides

I would take the reavers but would try to avoid things with a 5+ armor save. They are going to get obliterated.

How about mandrakes, harlequins, or wracks. All of these are harder to kill and can do some damage. I would rather see harlequins in your list than bloodbrides.

Harlequins were my second choice I have seen them work wonders in KT. Ill probly drop the brides and kabbus for a couple with a troupe master with pw and a death jester

I was also concidering 3ish incubi with a klaivex with the prefered enemy upgrade and maybe toss in a few small harlies and a death jester

Too many Elites again


How about 3 Incubi in a basic Venom, and a Beastmaster with 5 Khymerae? Little light on shooting, but should wreck face in assault and mostly good saves all around (and some wound allocation shenanigans to keep the beastmaster alive).

Sounds good but I have no beasts so i will probly have to take 3 incubi in a venom with some bikes or some harlies with bikes

woops sorry about that not super up to snuff with kt rules, but anyways I would probably go with the incubi in a venom then, though I would be tempted to just take 2×10 kabal squads with a sc in each and then just camp in some cover

Where would my anti tank come from then? I know for a fact that a BA player is most likely bringing a baal pred so I need the heat lance bike or a blaster or something
