Hey all, I've had a lot of success with my current list, but I feel it's missing something. I just can't put my finger on what it is. Any comment, criticism, and questions are all welcome with zero salt I promise

Total 1650/2000, 8 CP

I left 350 pts for reinforcement from the 8 lords that can summon any god. This could be anything from two squads of 20 bloodletters w/ instruments + horrors, 3 Disc heralds for more smite threat, 5 E. flamers, to Daemon prince + support. Or until its FaQ'ed bring in a second changeling if he gets sniped out(if this has already happened please let me know as its only a matter of time until they fix the oversight).

It's a little hard to explain exactly what the plan is as this list is reactionary and built to take an alpha strike and smack back, as I believe the current meta to be epic gunlines and amazing alpha strikes I feel this list plans to take that without losing too much and then using aetos' shooting and 20" move + assault along with mass smiting to take out the biggest threat at the time(last game I played, him+smite killed 2 stormravens turn 1). While that is happening horrors, changeling, lords, and Giant tzeentch spawn move up to take board control in a solid bubble for the -1 to hit and conga lining out for objectives(very easy to do with 20 man horror squads), And the two giant nurgle spawn move to flank from the side being outside of the changeling bubble(marked nurgle as its more resilient than tzeentch outside changeling aura). Keep in mind Giant chaos spawn are either bullet sponges early or MONSTERS turns 2-3+ so people want to shoot them, but also have to shoot aetaos or get wrecked by his amazing EVERYTHING(literally excels at everything), this is with the horros/changeling/lord taking the middle of the map and summoning whatever is needed.

Anyway thats my list, I'll admit i'm proud of its win %(hasnt lost yet) but I feel it's missing something, i dont know if its body count, AT, Anti horde, threat potential. am i trying to do too much? thanks for looking.

Nothing at all eh :(
