I can speak only for the Tau but it seems like a weird allied combo. The Tau however look ok.

I have probably played about 20 games as demons of khorne and I have won 18 and didnt finish 2. Each time I have played I always played them the same way which was to have 2 troops and all Monstrous Creatures. I played 2 or 3 where I used bloodcrushers and the skullcannon but otherwise it hasn't changed. I have played against Tyranids-1, Space Marines-2, Blood Angels-1, DA Ravenwing and Deathwing-2, Grey Knights-6, CSM-3, Necrons-2, IG-1, DE-1, Eldar-1. The closest game I came to losing was 2 guys in a 3k game with Necrons/Grey Knights where the necron player sat on his side in buildings and the Grey Knight guy deep struck his deathstar of paladins, the guy who spawns terminators, and Draigo. Even Though I have not lost it will come eventually and I just wanted to try something different since I have tried using DE and really wasnt the greatest since I tried a deathstar and Asbrudael Vect with drazhar and 8 incubi that didn't do so bad even though Draigo was all ready dead when they got into combat.

So what you're saying is you win every game with an illegal list? Wow that's pure skill...
If you're running 4 heavies, that's double FO and you need 4 troops at a minimum. None of your opponents noticed this?

Well from what I remember I have played 5 games at 2k or above; 2 of those games I used 3 squads of bloodletters with banners and the other 3 were a 3k game and a 3.5k that I used 5 squads. So yes those 2 games at 2k I probably had an illegal list unless I just copied and pasted the wrong list. The 2 games at 2k we never got to finish because the shop where played had to close. The rest of my games were all between 1500 and 1850. Automatically Appended Next Post:
From those 6 games I played against grey knights I always had a gimoir, 3 of those games he did not have the deathstar with draigo. I normally set up some terrain where I could hide some of my MC where they could not be shot, my BL were always in reserves except once, I normally never assaulted with only 1 MC and almost never through terrain so my initiative I could take out as many in the first round as possible.
