So i tried to make a flying circus before and got told its not viable in 7th, so i have come up with this instead (this is just for causual play as necrons are my main) :

Deamon army list

HQ

Kairos fateweaver 300

Lord of change 305
lvl 3 pkcher
greater reward
exalted reward

elites

6 flamers of tzeentch 138


6 flamers of tzeentch 138

troops

6 nurglings 90

6 nurglings 90

14 pink horrors 126


16 pink horrors 144



heavy support

deamon prince 355
deamon of tzeentch
wings
warp-forged armour
greater reward
exalted reward
lvl 3 psyker

soul grinder 170
deamon of tzeentch
phlegm bombardment

soul grinder 180
deamon of nurgle
phlegm bombardment


1956 (what to fill the last 44 points with?)

Any help is appreciated. -jackblg-

Why take pyrocasters on the flamers. They are shooting templates and get nothing from BS5

Same for pink horrors. They gain nothing from having their character and they gain triple nothing from taking the lesser reward. Especially when you could have bought 1 more horror instead and got another warp charge for it.

Nurgle grinders don't pan out. Grinders aren't cheap enough to just sit back in cover and shot a battle cannon every turn which is what Daemon of Nurgle wants you to do. If you do advance forward then you aren't going to get cover reliably so you spent 15 points for SnP. Just make it Tzeentch as well.

Also I'd take a 2nd greater reward on the LoC.

yeah your right, the pyrocasters and lesser reward is pointless.

I still plan to keep the Nurgle grinder just because i wanted one of both gods. (will edit list)

Not sure what you mean?

Also, I think it would be better if you dropped a flamer squad, some Pink Horrors,and a Grinder for another DP. 3 FMCs just don't cut it well enough. I took 3 to the past tournament and sorely missed having a fourth. They are expensive so have to be used well, and having 4 helps you to oversaturate the enemy with targets and gives you chances for better psychic powers

No it's just "casual" lists aren't really critique-able.

It is viable, you just need to play differently (in other words, spam out the hell out of Telepathy, get shrouded and jink, jink for your life, have fun with a re-rolleable 2+ cover save and invisibility if you can).
