Hi Guardian 23,

First of all: Nice! Nice to see a fellow WB player on this board. Nice to talk about a 1500 Daemonbomb list (like my own). And a Nice list.

Lord matches one of my earlier set-ups. After much testing I switched Mutation for Essence. You pay premium for the 4+inv, with 4 wounds you get better return for that. Also it takes something like 9 Lascannon Hits to tople that monster. For me Staying power with that set-up is more important than damage.

Lieutenant is similar to mine, a Lieut like this is the best and most important unit in this army IMHO. I use one without Daemon Armour and Meltaboms for 125 points. The IC status will protect it, so I think 20 points for the Armour is unnecessary.

Biker squads is very Good, nothing to add.

Personally I'd push the Furies to 8 per squad and have all the Daemonettes numbered 6 strong. Reason: The Furies are there to engage, block line of sight untill reinforcements arrive to finish the job, and thus to stay in CC as long as possible. They are the Fast Daemons, give them the numbers. Also 6 is Slaanesh's funny number, so keep the Daemonettes at that, just for fluf.

Havocs: Very good. For me though, Infiltrate is paramount on CSM summoning squads. Otherwise in an Omega-level mission your Daemons will be summoned too far from the enemy. I suggest 1 Havocs with 3 Autocannon and tankhunters and 2 Havocs with 3 Missile launchers and Infiltrate.

Resumating I think you have a very good list. With a good modelcount in 1500 points and enough scoring units (9).This list will deal Lotsa Damage and enable you to dominate all your friends, isn't Chaos Grand!

For Comparison I'll post my list, as I said it's similar although I've focussed on more CC-power and less shooting (and I have kept the Defiler, because mine is a rather nicely converted centrepiece - not because it's good enough to have a place in the army - all infantry is better).

108 - Lord, Stature, Speed, 2CCW, Frag, MoCU, Pers Icon

125 - Lieut, Bike, Dark Blade, Melta, MoCU, Pers Icon

115 - 5 CSM, Las Plas, Inf, MoCU, Icon

110 - 5 CSM, Autoc Plas, Inf, MoCU, Icon

101 - 5 CSM, Hvy Bolter Flam, Inf, MoCU, Icon

208 - 8 Bloodletters

90 - 6 Daemonettes

90 - 6 Daemonettes

120 - 8 Furies

168 - 6 Mounted Daemonettes

115 - 3 Bikers, Plasma, MoCU, Icon

150 - Defiler

1500 points - 55 models, 10 scoring units

Mine performs rather well, I know yours will too.

Greetings, and good luck with the list, let me know how it does,

Cilithan out...

 

Maybe using 2x Chaos Lts. with Bike/meltagun, P. Icon, Melta-bombs and Power Weapon serve this list better.
That means Furies are be increased to 8x per squad, and the 3rd Daemonette squad is increased to 8, too.
As for Daemonettes, i always look at the number of taloning attacks they can deal on the charge, before most troops can even attack. Formulae: Number of Daemonettes/2
So, 8 Daemonettes can deal 4 taloning and i prefer 4 to 3.

Ps.: Letz start a movement that would force GW to change "rending" into "taloning". löl
