This does really good lately:

1849:
Fateweaver (Warlord)
Herald of Tz- Lvl 3, Disc, Exalted Reward
Herald of Tz- Lvl 3, Disc, Exalted Locus of Conjuration
Herald of Tz- Lvl 3, Disc
11 Pink Horrors
10 Pink Horrors
9 Screamers of Tzeentch
Demon Prince of Tz- Flight, Warp-forged Armor, Lesser Reward
Demon Prince of Tz- Flight, Warp-forged Armor, Lesser Reward
Demon Prince of Tz- Flight, Warp-forged Armor, Lesser Reward

Alternative:

1849:
Fateweaver (Warlord)
Herald of Tz- Lvl 3, Disc, Exalted Reward
Herald of Tz- Lvl 3, Disc, Exalted Locus of Conjuration
Herald of Tz- Lvl 3, Disc
16 Pink Horrors
15 Pink Horrors
9 Screamers of Tzeentch
Demon Prince of Tz- Flight, Warp-forged Armor, Lesser Reward, Lvl 3
Demon Prince of Tz- Flight, Warp-forged Armor, Lesser Reward, Lvl 3

Lessons learned:

1. Lesser Rewards are all a Prince needs if he is bare-bones (ie: flight, armor). Don't buy Greaters if you can make a prince a psyker (or all princes level 2 psykers) with the 20+ points in rewards..

2. Screamers need to be 9man unless you're playing 1500pts

3. 4 Heralds is absurd and the book-keeping that is required to play properly is silly. Just use 3 and take more toys.

To really answer your one question, I think the Level 3 princes are better than ones with a lesser and 2x greaters.

I normally only run 3 Heralds but thought it would be good to bump it up for an 1850 point level.

Why do you say 9 screamers are a must?
