it would be a grave mistake not to give your daemon princes armor...

He did. The "3+" is the warpforged armor

Nothing to say here. Some would argue that Be'Lakor would be a better choice than the LoC, and that you could make the points by dropping some rewards or ML levels.

You could also drop a prince and the LoC and take a screamer star.

All in all this list is great, and is very meta. Lots of lists like this do very well, just be prepared to be given some dirty looks from people just looking to roll dice. This is like taking 4 heldrakes, haha, you mean business clearly

Looks great really. I'm sure you'd prefer lvl3 on those princes but I don't know where you'd find the points. Aside from that it looks like a great list!

Thanks guys, I was considering Be'Lakor but I was a bit unsure if he was necessary. I'd never thought of incorporating a screamerstar, I might have to give that a try...
Thanks again

You could drop the lord of Change and replace it with something better, since his stats aren't that good for the 305 points you spend on getting him on the field. I would suggest getting another HQ going (maybe Be'Lakor would be more appropiate). And if you're using plaguebearers to hold objectives, stick to them, if not, you might wanna replace them with Daemonettes. Also, mostly in a objective game (so most of the time) you would want atleast 3 troops just to ensure that you have enough troops to actually hold all the objectives when there's multiple ones.

Personally I dont think the portal glyph is worth taking, it dies too easy and only might spawn some troops.

Taking 2x greater rewards on the princes apart from the grimoire one is more beneficial just because they add a lot of survivability.


Horrors are pretty good troops to look into also, they can contribute to the fight by shooting, something plaguebearers lack and horrors, when they go to ground in area terrain, become pretty hard to kill thanks to re-rolling 1's on saves.
