Be'Lakor buffs the keeper with invisibility, the plague bearers and pink horrors hold objectives. Cultists stay in reserves and hopefully walk on turn 4 on an objective. Drop the portal glyph on an objective or where otherwise needed, and the FMC's do their job and Fateweaver supports. The grimoire most likely goes on fateweaver for survivability. If need be it can be tossed onto Be'Lakor giving him a 2+ invul in certain sticky situations. Thoughts?

Also, as a side note the other option here is making the Daemon Princes Tzeentch, that gives them far more survivability. The way to do this and still be within 1850 would be as follows:

Daemon Prince, Tzeentch, armor, wings, greater, exalted, mastery level 2
Daemon Prince, Tzeentch, armor, wings, greater, exalted, mastery level 2

Thoughts? I know flickering fire is decent, but handing out FnP isn't ideal, however the lash is str 6 and can't be deny the witch'd. The only downside with slaanesh daemon princes is they lack rerolling failed saves of 1's which almost makes tzeentch DPs like termies...

Anyone?

Looks like a great list...I'd love to see your opponents face when they bring some fliers and take 2d6 S7+ lash shots.

One quick aside, if you do exchange for Tzeentch princes, make sure to take a lesser reward too, and make it the Staff, that way your attacking at S8.

Thanks for the feedback. How are the lash shots str 7 though?

Also, I'm wondering how people would feel about me changing up my troops selection a bit...

I'm thinking this instead:

20 daemonettes
10 plague bearers

What is my reasoning? Well, the plague bearer squad and the cultists will no doubt hold my home objectives, the daemonettes get upfield quick and if there's a few left after mopping enemy units up, they can squat on one and the portal glyph can pump out pink horrors on another.

I said S7 assuming you rolled Biomancy and lucked into some Iron Arm goodness.

As to the Daemonettes, love the change. I only take a dozen or so Horrors when I play, and they only hit the field if I roll the summoning bonus on the Warp Storm table, and I've run out of Daemonettes.

Doesn't the lash use unmodified strength?

Nope, only vector strikes.

I like it, I found the lash attacks quite helpful especially while you can shoot while swooping.
The only reason that DP is also quite good is due to flickering fire and rerolls of 1 which make him better in saves.
