So as the tittle says, I cant pick between the tree people and and the angry people. The bloodbound feel like a more heroic force, they have more character and personality. Whereas the sylvaneth seem more fun to play.

What are your impressions of both armies, pros cons of both?

As someone who runs both armies, I can tell you that Khorne's playstyle is significantly simpler (run in and kill), but list building is more complex. It's all about finding the right synergies. Sylvaneth is currently the stronger army having plenty of monsters, mobility, and shooting, but they have a much steeper learning curve when it comes to strategy. Neither army is going to "play itself", but if you're new to AoS, Bloodbound would probably be a better starting army from a learning angle, but the important question is "which set of models do you like better"?

Khorne is simpler and more deadly.

Just take a screen unit of blood reavers, backed with 2 units of blood letters, take 2 blood stokers and 2 blood secretors, 1-2 warp lightning cannons and of course the auto take Sayl the faithless.

You'll go second often but you'll win games in your first 2 turns 90% of the time.

@EnTyme, I dont mind a steep learning curve I mostly play against friends. I dont want an army Ill get bored with.

@TheIronCrow are you just using the chaos book or the bloodbound book?
