Hello.

Just attended quite majorly filth tourney with daemon flying circus at 1650 pts, and went 3 wins, a draw and two losses which i was happy with, as it was full of fortune beast packs, screamerstar & wave serpents etc. Next tournament I'm heading to is not as filthy, but it's an increase to 1750 which though is good for squeezing moar stuff in, doesn't really let me add in another MC. Here's what I was thinking:

Kairos Fateweaver 300
Lord of Change, lesser reward, exalted reward, level 3 psyker 295

10 horrors 90
10 horrors 90

Daemon Prince, Tzeentch, exalted reward, lesser reward, armour + wings, level 3 psyker 345
Daemon Prince, Tzeentch, lesser reward, armour + wings, level 3 psyker 315

CSM Allies

Daemon Prince, Tzeentch, armour + wings, the Black Mace 265

10 Cultists 50

1750

OR

Kairos Fateweaver 300
Lord of Change, lesser reward, exalted reward, level 3 psyker 295

10 horrors 90
10 horrors 90

Daemon Prince, Tzeentch, exalted reward, lesser reward, armour + wings, level 3 psyker 345
Soul Grinder, Tzeentch 140

CSM Allies

Daemon Prince, Tzeentch, armour + wings, the Black Mace 265

Helldrake with baleflamer 170

10 Cultists 50

1745

first list has 5 flying MC's with a fair amount of shooting (each CD tzeentch guy will take flickering fire) and combat threat, wheras the 2nd list has 4 flying MC's with a helldrake and a soul grinder that can stay in reserve and deep strike if I think it'll get mulched by starting on the board.

What do you reckon??

Both lists can work. I like more FMCs for playing the "Here I am, now here I go right off the board again" game against Tau/Wave Serpent Spam/Mirror.

Minor tweaks: Greater Rewards are where it's at. They vastly increase your resiliency. Take your one exalted, or two if you want the portalglyph. The rest should have greater. I get the lesser for explode-y staff, but this is really more of a luxury that at 1650-1750, you probably can't afford.

Horrors are great, but in so few numbers, I think I'd go with plaguebearers for objective sitting.
