I hoped to have a 2 GD+ 3DP army but wont be able to get the models till after the tourny.. so here is my improvised list from what i got:
1 BT w/ blessing, DS, unholy might =295
2 heralds of tzeentch w/ disc, master of sorc, bolt = 200
Rares:
3 fiends(only have 3) = 90
4 flamers X 2 = 280
special:
10 furies = 150
5 seekers w/inst. chaos X 2=180
6 hounds w/fury of khorne = 100
troops:
10 bloodletters = 160
7 plaguebearers w/ icon X 2 =260
5 horrors w/bolt X 3 = 285
total 2000
Some extra models:
4 more flamers - Do i need them to replace fiends if 3 models of fiends not good enough?
special:
4 extra hounds
troops:
10 bloodletters, 6 plagues, 5 horrors. <
I think 7 plaguebearers can hold for a turn to use the icons. I think i need a bit of shooting and bolt to compensate for lack of hitting power so i have 3 units of horros w/bolt to take care of heavy stuff . Any suggestions? Do i need more horrors? thanks!

This is horrid. Sorry, but it had to be said. Furies suck. Hard. The horrors and Plaguebearers will die real fast with squads of that size. Seriously, revamp this list. Add a Soulgrinder and some crushers.

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made. |

Is this for 40k? I only ask because you use the words Rare and Special.

2 heralds of tzeentch w/ disc, master of sorc, bolt, we are legions = 220
Elite:
3 fiends(only have 3) = 90
3 flamers X 2 = 210
Fast attack:
5 seekers w/1 inst. chaos X 2=180
5 hounds w/fury of khorne X 2= 170
troops:
10 bloodletters = 160
10 blood letters = 160
10 plaguebearers =150
7 horrors w/bolt = 129
7 horrors w/bot = 129

Icons are very useful.
Take 2 squads of 10 Plaguebearers, give each squad an icon, and drop these squads in front of the enemy.
Watch his face when most of your Daemons are summoned close to his front ranks.

Wouldnt the plaguebeares get ripped to shreds being so close? also i would be screwed if they have template weapons. I think the plaguebearer "anvil" is better with 5th edition run rule so my guys wont get clustered together...

Plaguebearers are hard to take down thanks to their 'ignore injury' special rule.
And with T5 the enemy needs S10 weapons to get around this special rule.
