So a monster mash with a block of Horrors. Usually the combo of Grimoire and Fateweaver make him indestructible while the combo of Greater Reward and Biomancy can make the Grimoire carrying GUO nearly impossible to bring down. The flying Princes can be a real problem as well even without good Psychics, good Psychic rolls can makes them crazy good. Feedback appreciated.

Any suggestions or comments? How would your list beat this one? I don't get much experience against a variety of armies, what would give this list problems?

Without a Fecundity Locus Herald the two units of 10 plagues are probably better as one unit of 20. If you runt he unit naked that saves you 70 points that you can either (With savings elsewhere) invest in a new unit of troops or buff your princes even more.

My boyz would get in their trukks and on their bikes and run for the hills!

Its nice to see a Grimore on something that isn't nine Tzeench Screamers.

I felt that only 2 scoring units would be a risk. I like to deploy the Horror unit and DS the two units of PB's, with only one unit of PB's I could only cover my backfield objective rather than possibly threaten one of my opponents objectives. The Horrors usually get wiped out by turn 3 but can still do some damage to infantry while the monsters move in. I might try using 2 Tzeentch heralds and 2 Nurgle Heralds in place of the GUO. Then I could put the Grimoire in the big Horror unit and put Fecundity on the 2 PB units. Thanks for the advice, great food for thought.
