Ok so I have been writing some tetrad lists. Not super competitive but I want them to be good. I have a friend who plays tau with a vsg and a stormsurge all the time so I know its gonna be a hard match up. How do I handle it? How can the demons reliably kill a gargantuan? Or do I just ignore him and go after everything else?

MurderHoard

8X 5 Blood Hounds 640
HoK, Juggernaut, greater reward, lesser reward 130

Demon Flock

5 Furies

Infernal Tetrat

DP of Khorne, warp armor, flight 240
DP of Nurgle, warp armor, flight, lvl 1 265
DP of Slaneesh, warp armor, flight lvl 1 260
DP of Tzeentch, warp armor, flight, lvl 2 280

1850 even. How is it?

I could also try changing the murderhoard to something else but they are all so expensive.

and with 3+d3 WC what do you think to do? i guess nothing

I am sorry but don't understand.

It's 4 plus d6

i see 3 1st level psy so 3+d6, , anyway 4 DP could be strong but without rewards and psy support, i am afraid you will lost them quick.

Well one is clearly a level 2 so it's 4+d6.

Anyways, I do agree with blackmage's general point that your Princes are super gimped to make room for other stuff. There's almost no point to running them, I think you'd do better with 3 greater daemons in the command slots instead.

If you want to fit the tetrad in the Daemonic Incursion then I think the only way is to use the Tallyband since it's cheap.

Edit:spelling

Ok so what's better?

herald N 2°lev greater reward locus fecundity
7x3 nurglins
DP korne wings armor 2 greater rewards
DP Tz wings armor 3°level 2 greater rew
DP Sl as above
DP N as above
you still have about 130pts to spend , i dont know if can work but at least you field 4 decent DP for sure is annoying list with all FNP around and shrouded units

That's about my list, I put in a unit of Plaguebearwrs for my herald to hide in since Nurglings may get wrecked by ignores cover blasts or lots of s6+ shooting. Herald with doomsday bell.

Also impossible robes on tzeentch prince instead of armor and armor of scorn on Khorne prince.

Don't you still need an auxiliary in this list? The tetrad is a command.

Yes, but you can just stick on 5 furies which is 35 points.

yes use 5 furies and still some room for further rewards/artefacts/plaguebearers
