108- 3 chaos spawn

225- 3 chaos rapier weapons battery
* 3 cyclotrath pattern conversion beamer

can you help us out by telling us what your strategy is? or what is the point for rapier weapons battery? cause they are only in ia13 right?

Think I prefer the punchy reliability of a power fist to the blade of relentless. Could maybe be a sorcerer instead? Add some magic to the mix

I don't see what the second Herald is brining. Drop him for two more spawn?

Looks like a strong list.

Ia13 is correct, 24-48 str10 ap1 heavy 1large blast, 12-24 str 8 appreciate 4 1 heavy large blast, 0-12 str 6 ap 0 1 heavy large blast. So I'm going to park them on one side of the board and just drop heavy blasts (with the heralds in the unit so they can use there bs 7 to shoot the conversion beamers) spread out the soul grinders but try to put them a bit aways from the beamers to try and force them to either get bombed to death or split there efforts, from there I'd all 6 of my heavy blasts (including the plegm bombardments) to pic of threats while my drakes try to destroy all troops and the Lord goes hunting with the spawn and the troop choices go for objectives.

I can see the use of more spawn I just really want to take advantage of being able to plop them in a non daemon unit them being daemonkin, I think that bs 7 will really let me put those blast exactly where I want them

I did plan to originally go with a sorcerer but I wanted to go with nurgle mark but if I did that I'd have to roll on the nurgle table at least once, which didn't appeal to me because if I went lvl 3 out of my 4 spells 2 would have to be from nurgle table and just felt I'd get more out of the lord. A power fist might work I just have a natural fear of I 1 lol.

Sounds cool. Never thought about using heralds to man artillery lol.

3 heldrakes is probably overkill. An idea could be to drop a helldrake and spawn and take loads of flesh hounds. Scout your Lord, and I'd say better than nurgle spawn point for point.

Sadly, hellturkeys have been severly nerfed. If you want my two cents, I'd drop them alongside the chaos lord (and spawn, for that matter). Replace him for a sorcerer and give him the bale star (divination is pure gold) and spend those 300 remaining points in something else: like bringing more boys or further upgrading what you have. Bringing in two obliterator pops to my mind, because they'll serve as a fire magnet (if you footslog them) or take a few enemies from the rear (if you deepstrike'em)

If I did drop the heldrakes I could take a chaos knight, which would give me a reason to take a sorcerer

i ran a similar list to this, but it does not have any close combat, but its more of an iron warriors list where there are lots of explosions, so ya i like this list but you might want to cut on the helturkys, you already have those batteries, so what i would do is cut everything that is meant to kill infantry and go with the battery, just dont cut fleshounds and lord

I was hoping to summon tons of flesh hpunds as well due to so little of the blood tithe chart helping my primary goals as much as flesh hounds would. But yeah prolly take a hard look over the list did it after waking up to pee last night lol. That and I just got the 3 heldrakes (well just got around to converting them) for my birthday so was all yeah lol use all 3 lol

Oh and don't forget that while yes the pattern converter is amazing on troops, same with the plegm bombardments, but that str10 ap 1, and with plegm bombardment being an ordnance there also great for busting armour as well.
