So im playing a 2-player team tournament in about a month with Daemons, 750pts each player. No duplicates of Elite/FA/Heavy units and no fliers allowed. Normal allied-rules does not apply between players in the same team.

My partner is probably also going Daemons.. Here's what Ive been thinking about for my 750pts:

Lord of Change, Lesser gift (Staff of Change) for the additional strength.

Skulltaker on Juggernaut

2 units of 11 Pink Horrors

10 Fleshhounds

Basic battleplan for my part is shoving Skulltaker into the hounds and scout ahead for a charge in round 2. Lord of Change boost Horrors shooting with Prescience, heading into combat later in the game.

750pts isnt much to work with and we have no idea what resistance to expect since all the normal allied rules are off.

Thoughts?

Looks pretty good ever thought about using slaanesh? If not here is an idea

750 pts

Herald of Slaanesh (3) 225pts
Locus of swiftness, LR(Ether blade)

Deamonettes 15(3) 483pts
Icon, instrument, alluress (LR(Ether Blade)

708pts

I have had thoughts in that directions yes, however the probability that 2/3 units would be shot into ineffectiveness is quite high I think. With Daemonettes a charge in turn 2 is not a given (as with the hounds) so im potentially risking 2 turns of shooting. And that would leave most of the Daemonettes shot to pieces.

Im sure to loose some Fleshhounds due to first round fire however Im quite certain that Skulltaker and at least a few hounds will make it in to cc, and hounds are more effective on the charge than Daemonettes.
