So I decided to do tournaments again, and figured I should be running something worthy to compete.

It's got 12PD, 8DD (+2 Scrolls), 11D6 Shots per turn, two units of heavy cav, and a Bloodthirster. If it's not Zero Comp, I don't know what is.

IMHO, you have too many Heralds. If you drop the Obsidian Armour for the simple 3+ save and Scroll on the 'Thirster, and drop one of your Flying Scroll Caddies, you lose 1 DD and 2 PD. One magic missile loss won't mean much, and you still have 7DD. You can take more Flesh Hounds for that many points.

I have a friend who runs a similar list

Thats 2000pts. Only 5 DD and one scroll, but it's worked out for him so far. More Flesh Hounds = can't escape them, and setting up lots of combo charges. Just a thought.

Zoned

PS: 20 Flesh Hounds is !40! T4 5++ save wounds.
