This list is based off of a mono Tzeentch list I had built for fun. I have a tournament coming up that the theme is fast attack so I included a unit of fast attack from each detachment. The main play of the army is summoning mostly just to get Greater Daemons by sacking the heralds but also grab some hounds, blood letters, plague bearers, and heralds of nurgle. also once the heralds are dead, I summon them again. I am limited to mostly these as I only have so many models. All told though, the indirect fire and target saturation makes the list work. You just cannot kill that many models plus all the extra coming in. Plus it is always fun to pull out a bloodthirster first round. I have found that a Keeper of Secrets works better most games as it doesn't have a extra round caught up in changing flight modes. The Chaos Sorcerer and the Renegade Commander generally take all there psyker abilities in pyromancy while the daemons all take malefic daemonology. The Renegade Commander's Covenant of Tzeentch allows snap shots at ballistic skill 2, which makes the Quadgun more viable versus ground targets. So far the only problem I have run into is the shooting phase takes a long time and can bog down the game. The psykic phase is actually rather simple and quick, as unless there is something close to set on fire, all the dice go into cursed earth and summoning.

Having an answer to thunder wolves, canoptic wraiths and nob bikers is important with that much artillery.

Either a nugle pf+lc bike lord with spawn or a large helcult or large unit of hounds.

Seeing as you are taking covenant of tzeentch, consider renegade spawn, they are a bargain.

So while the list did win the three games I played, I feel it is weak. The sentinels need more armour or more models in the squadron. Raptors are lack luster without the champion upgraded. Chaos furies did okay for what they are but my order of mini's did not go through and I don't have viable proxies. This revision to the list falls back on my more usual daemons list. Mostly I have the Renegades as the primary army instead so I can take the artillery instead of the usual bloodthirster. I do not yet own any spawn, but yes, I will indeed field them once I get a hold of them.
