Hey all, these are a few lists I'm toying around with for a tournament next weekend. I would like to ask your opinion on each.

List One : Warpflame w/Knight
Spoiler:
WarpFlame Host
- 11 Horrors
- 11 Horrors
- 11 Horrors
- 11 Horrors
- 11 Horrors
- Exalted Flamer
- Exalted Flamer
- Exalted Flamer
- Exalted Flamer
- Tzeentch Herald with Loci of Conjuration + Level 2 Psyker

Daemon Lord
- Fateweaver

Daemon Flock
- 5 Furies

CaD
- Tzeentch Herald with Exalted Reward (Portalglyph) + Level 2 Psyker
- Tzeentch Herald with Exalted Reward (Grimoire) + Level 2 Psyker
- 3 Nurglings
- 3 Nurglings
- Knight Paladin of Slaanesh

Grimiore the Knight Paladin of Slaanesh. With Fateweaver's warp storm manipulation that should be a 2++ on most turns.
The Portalglyph is constantly spitting out more objective secured troops making it very hard for the other player to get a grip on the objectives.
Fateweaver is flying around during this time just causing as much havoc as possible.


List Two: Pacific Rim
Spoiler:
Infernal Tetrad
···Daemon Prince of Khorne [Armour of Scorn, 2x Greater Reward, 1x Lesser Reward, Flight]
···Daemon Prince of Nurgle [2x Greater Reward, 1x Lesser Reward, Flight, ML 2]
···Daemon Prince of Slaanesh [2x Greater Reward, Flight, ML 2]
···Daemon Prince of Tzeentch [The Impossible Robe, 2x Greater Reward, 1x Lesser Reward, Flight, ML 2]

Chaos Renegade Knights Forsworn Knight Detachment
···Renegade Knight [Reaper Chainsword, Thunderstrike Gauntlet]
···Renegade Knight [Reaper Chainsword, Thunderstrike Gauntlet]
This is a lot more of a direct list. 6 high threat targets coming in hard and fast. It does not have the finesse of the first list, but has a lot more beat face elements.
The idea is overwhelm your opponent with the sheer amount of incoming damage.

You know I am a big fan of the Tetrad. But I don't think your list is going to do it there, you need more warp charges to make them effective. It's still a scary list but I'm not sure you're going to be able to pull it off.

I think list 1 is the best, but I do think Chaos Knight of Khorne is better (and cheapest).

List 3 is weird, but I think it can work. My Tallyband is doing some serious work these days.

Thanks for the input. Right now I think lists one and two are the best. I'm still not sure as to which though.

1 seems to have more flexability, but it's less killy. I also worry about not getting to turn 5 with that many models and that long of a psychic phase.
2 seems very killy but I think it will sufferer on ITC missions. With NOVA it should do better as you always go for the final scoring vs. progressive scoring.

I prefer list number 2

Did you decide on a list yet? I want you to take List 2 now, because I want to know how it goes so I can steal the idea when I eventually buy the Renegade Knight game.

The event this weekend is NOVA practice, and since daemon knights are not allowed at NOVA, I will be taking list #2.

I got my Renegades box this yesterday and am in the process of building, magnetizing, and 'chaosing' the knights now.
