I'm starting to experiment adding in Daemon models to my CSM army as I've been beginning to see how beneficial they can be. Saying that I'm definitely not to familiar with them, so I definitely could use some suggestions, but please go easy on me haha.

Be'Lakor uses telepathy and supports units moving up, and the daemon prince rolls on biomancy and uses Grimore on Be'Lakor

I think your math might be off just a little

You have over 900 points in your 3 HQs. That seems like a bit much....

Not my type of list for sure

I took out Typhus for a Nurgle Lord, and made two lists, with the only main difference being if I should take Rhinos or not for the plague marines. The list without gets the benefit of chaos bikers and the
T6 with nurgle, but I'm just not sure.


List A

Be'lakor

Lord Of Nurgle
-aura of dark glory
-MoN
-Chaos Bike

Troops-396

-2x Meltaguns
MoN

Daemonettes of Slaanesh x10


I'm leaning towards list B myself.

Your DP is extremely underwhelming. A DP with no armor or flight is a sad DP. If you cannot afford to give him what he needs, take the KoS

Good job taking the lord pretty much barebones, with so many points in belakor you dont have much HQ points left that you can afford if you want to keep your list from being top-heavy

PMs in rhinos with double special weapons are great

Heldrakes/oblits are great


Why do you have slaanesh here? You just have one unit. make your plaguebeareres daemonettes to actually make your allies what you say you want them to be

hey sorry I just looked back at the post and there a bunch of mistakes, that you called out (thanks).

The DP of Slaanesh should have warpforged armor, wings, be mastery level 3 and have 2 greater rewards. And yes the allied units should both be Daemonettes. I wrote the reply in response to the above comments very quickly and copied over a slightly different list. I will go fix that now, thank you for response btw.

The Slaanesh Prince rolls all on biomancy and has a good chance of getting Iron arm, with the Lash of despair, it is an effective anti-flyer and has another roll on greater rewards for more survivability. This way the heldrakes focus on ground troops. Be'lakor supports the entire army and stays back till late game.
