This is a tournament army that has to meet certain comp and theme criteria. I realize Bloodthirster, Horrors, Flamers, and Flesh Hounds would optimize my list more but I have restrictions I have to meet. I'm going with a partner and he's taking most of the above units so I would like to avoid duplication where possible (so unfortunately, no Flamers.)

Comp criteria - 30% core
Theme criteria - only Slaanesh or Tzeentch (or Furies)

Lords

Keeper of Secrets w/ level 4 upgrade, allure, siren

[u]Heroes

The Masque

The Blue Scribes

Tzeentch Herald on chariot w/ BSB, banner of -2 leadership, dispel scroll, flames

Core

10 Horrors x 3, one with musician

6 Furies x 2

Rare [b]

3 Fiends of Slaanesh x 2

~2000pts

I have a few points to play with which I might dump into Horrors to make them 12 strong (fits the Slaanesh theme better.)

Essentially, the army will use fast Fiends and Furies to encircle the enemy, the the KoS, BSB, and the Masque will try to use Terror at -2 to crossfire them. If I play against other Daemons or Udead, rely on magic to wear them down and isolate units of the flank with my greater mobility for combo charges. The army does pump out quite a bit of magic - 11 power dice and a bound spell. Thoughts and constructive criticism welcome!

Either my math is wrong or you are short about 90 points in your 30% core requirement.

(3X10)X12=360+6(mus)=366
(6X2)X12=144
366+144=510??

Other then that it seems interesting.


You should also look at some of the other threads that are talking about Kairos. What are your thoughts on him?

Dangit, you're right. I had the 40k 1700pts 30% core in mind. I'll probably play around with the points and either take some command on the Horrors and/or add Furies to make the 30% core mark.

And just so you know, Hjalmer, this list is for Arena, not the doubles you and I are going to ;oD
