Lord of Change (General) with Rod of Sorcery, and I’m considering giving him a sentient weapon (no save modifiers allowed against any of his attacks) 300
Second LoC w/ Rod of Sorcery (might bump to Kairos with the 40 points I have leftover) 300 or 340
Gaunt Summoner w/ familiars (120)
40 marauders of Tzeentch w/command (200)
40 marauders of Tzeentch w/command (200)
20 horrors w/command (240)
20 horrors w/command (240)
360pts towards summoning (or 400 if skipping Kairos)


2000pts on the money

Castle up the LoCs with the Summoner, summon Balewind Vortex and enjoy his range on all spells doubling, with a +3 to casting through various abilities. The castle is the 80 marauders all around them. Horrors on the side. Summoner uses range spells, LoCs buff and protect, chew up opponents as they come over but have to wade through 80 bodies to CC the big guns. The extra 260 reserves gets me a Bloodthirster for CC in the opponent’s backyard.

Thoughts and constructive criticism? Would I be better with Kairos or an extra 40 points to summon (maybe a Brimstone speedbump)?

Reality is a nice place to visit, but I'd hate to live there.

Re-reading Kairos’ abilities, he gets to know ALL the same spells as friendly casters within 18”, plus the once/game dice change, and he’s a bit stronger in CC than a regular LoC. He’s regular spell isn’t life changing, but since he knows the spells of the other LoC anyway, it’s just one more in his menagerie. I’m REALLY leaning towards him at this point. Would definitely like it if anyone can point out anything I’m missing that would make this a dud? And yes, I know that savvy players who are aware of what I’m doing will shoot every gun they have at the Gaunt Summoner.

- Combat artifact for LoC? Maybe casting artefact would be better? Wellspring of Arcane Might ?
- 200 points screen are expensive screen (especially if half of them run away in panic after casaulties). Do you have brimstone models? You can have 5 units of 10 Brimstone Horrors insted of one big Marauder unit. Harder to kill all those 5 units. Easier to spread and block or score with 5 units.
- Castlingup with Marauders is fine unless You need to move to capture objective. Whats the mission this army will fight?

Thanks for the suggestion! I do only have 18 horrors (1 box, ST, 2 LoCs), but I did consider them heavily. I do plan on boosting the Marauders (shields, mystic shield), for survivabity. I think there is a further spell that I can use to make them stand better too. If it only works on daemons though, I’ll probably use a unit of each (or maybe two units of Brimstones and a Warshrine!)

Shrine is 180. Scratch that!

Dont take Kiros, he is worthless in matched play. Take a balewind vortex for your gaunt summoner, if you do, and you use the LoC command ability you have a +3 to your cast.

If you want survivablity. Take chaos warriors, marked tzeentzch, and a warshrine. give them mystic shield, and use the shrine to buff them, they now have a 3+ rerollable save, and a 6+ FNP. and a 5+ wardsave.

To many unpainted models to count.

If you check my original post, I do use the GS with the Vortex.

I actually had a friend use this list this weekend, he lost barely any marauders. Kairos’ boost to a single die can change games, but he also gets access to every spell friendly wizards know. In addition, the Gaunt Summoner actually gets a spell off the Lore of Fate AND Lore of Change (he’s a mortal and a Daemon, Fate gifts one spell to mortals, Change gifts one to Daemons). Between he and Kairos, their casting abilities are nearly unmatched. I think I’m pretty happily gonna stick with Kairos. Weakness for the army is going to be Kharadron Overlords with their metric butt-ton of long range shooting attacks.
