Hey Guys,

So i've been play testing this new list of mine but i want some feedback.

Daemonic Incursion
Tallyband
Nurgle Herald ML 1
7x3 Nurglings

Daemon Lord: Fateweaver
Daemon Lord: Slaanesh DP, Wings, Armor ML2, Lash of Despair

Grand Calvalcade
1 Herald on Seeker Chariot, ML 2, Etherblade
6x Seeker Chariot, Etherblade

Grand Calvalcade
1 Herald on Seeker Chariot, ML 2, Etherblade
6x Seeker Chariot, Etherblade

Ok, so there is a crap ton of AP2, HoW rends for AP2 then the riders swing at I5 with etherblade for AP2. Biggest downside so far is AV13, which is for fateweaver to deal with.
Flyers will be handed to the DP to deal with with the lash at S6 12" Assault 2D6.

Nurglings are for board control and its basically a minimum effort to get the incursion. Ill most likely deploy 3 and deep strike the other 4 units.

So far it has gone up against a firehawks skyhammer and a 5 tank vindicator list. Both players conceded turn 3 or 4. It has done surprisingly well, like very surprising.

Any advice? What do you think will ROFL stomp this list?

I think a knight household would potentially do a lot of damage to this list.

If only i knew someone with that list to test it out.

Seriously though people. Bash me, idc as long as its productive.

I wouldn't bother investing all those points into the upgrades for the chariots. The real big drawback to the slaanesh chariots is that they die instantly if your opponent ever gets to attack back at the chariot because they can choose to hit the rider who only has 1 t3 wound with 5++ and in the herald case' its 2 wounds. If your opponent ever gets a chance to swing the chariot will be dead (and they aren't exactly durable before this fact). So you have to kill the enemy unit with HoW. You should not expect the rider to be able to help because you will probably touch terrain with their huge base and will be stuck swing at i1 since the don't have grenades and chariots don't get around this rule.

You should get ML3 and a second greater reward on the slaanesh prince and also the Doomsday Bell on your nurgle herald. Those are just all around great upgrades

Good points. It is 140 points. In my tests so far the riders have helped, due to a lack of I5 on my opponents. But that raises a good point if the 140 points is really worth that.

So with those changes i still have 30 points left. Would giving the chariot heralds the move through cover locci or the herald the fnp locci be worthwhile?

i havent added the grimiore due to not having large units. All the chariots (except maybe the heralds) will be running solo.

I would roll biomancy on the price, hope for ironarm for s9 t8

yup. Iron arm will significantly increase the effectiveness of the lash.
