Hello All

I have decided to turn my gaze from the blood god over to the Keeper of Knowledge and Master of magic- Tzeentch. I hope to appease him with the sacrifice of the many. Here is my army list that i wish to use in my conquest for our lord Tzeentch. Tell me what you all think?

Allegiance: Tzeentch

Leaders

Tzaangor Shaman
- Artefact: Ambition's End

Tzaangor Shaman
- Artefact: Secret Eater

Magister
- Artefact: Paradoxical Shield

Exalted Hero Of Chaos

Battleline
20 x Tzaangors
- 4x Pair of Savage Blades
- 8x Savage Greatblade
- 8x Savage Blade & Arcamote Shield

20 x Kairic Acolytes
- 8x Pair of Cursed Blades

Total: 1990/2000

The Idea behind this is first being able to generate destiny dices in order to control my dice rolls and maximize my damage output. Also giving my wizards the capability to cast additional spells will allow me to balance offense and defense with more ease. Tzaangor block will benefit from having that extra combat phase and keeping my general near them will ensure they hit hard. the Acolytes will be my biggest support as they will offer twice the shooting phase damage needed to help widdle down my opponents units. All of my tzaangors on disc will play back up and capture objectives. I am looking forward to collecting and testing this list out but i would like to get the opinion of all of you.

So I was able to tweek my list and include a 4th warband this one being the larger (the Pyrofane cult) and this time included the spells that i feel would best work with my list. Its pleasing to know that my Shaman are considered both Demons and Arcanites which gives me access to all Artifacts/powers. Tactics are after list.

Tell me what you all think?

Tactics:
General Shaman- Being near either a throwawy unit of Acolytes or the Tzaangors, doing the D3 wounds and with the boosted up range and the +1 to cast from Shaman #3 cast Tzeentch Firestorm and then follow it up with the Flickering Fires to Maximize damage to my oppts units.

Shaman #2- playing the support role/Arcane bolt caster, focusing on enemy units getting near my troops, he will cast Arcane suggestion to hinder those units. He has the potion for those times when we need spells to go off.

Shamen#3- Support role, he is to hang around the blocks of troops and cast both Mystic shield and shield of fate specifically on the Tzaangors (once they are in combat) otherwise we are buffing 2 units of Acolytes

Kairic Acolytes- Shooting twice either focusing on something that needs to die (all buffed with the help of the Shamans and warbands) or spreading it our to wear down troops.

Tzaangors- get into combat and kick some ass nuff said...

Tzaangor Elightened- Support charge and also to act as a temporary block for units i do not want charging me yet

Skyfires- Character Snipe and also support the Acolytes in shooting things dead.
