The plan is obviously to grimiore Fateweaver. This obviously gives me an un-killable unit (until you kill the Tzeentch prince) and someone to tie up deathstars. Nurgle Prince gives me the option of the balesword for monstrous creature hunting. For troops I like Pink horrors the best, and that’s often what I will spawn. I took Daemonettes for their speed and Plague Bearers cause... well they were painted and not much worse as troops go. Screamers give me a good unit to move quickly at high priority targets like wave serpents, or to kill small squads like pathfinders or long fangs. I took the Hounds because they force target priority. They will be in your face and now you must choose to shoot at them or the princes... and I am cool with either choice. Tzeentch prince chases invisibility if Fateweaver doesn’t get it, and nurgle prince will chase it if neither of the others do. This gives me two units with a 2+ re-rollable to shooting and makes killing the grimioure that much harder. Soul grinder because... soul grinder.

I feel against most armies I have the tools to out play them. I am posting this here to see if there are any glaring weaknesses that I didn’t consider. I feel like serpent spam will still be tough, but that’s always been tough for us.

Interdasting. I like it. All I would say, is that if you're chasing Invis you could swap a Prince and two Screamers for Be'Lakor and 10 cultists.


**Edit** Nevermind, 'cause Grimoire/Portalglyph. Still might work though.

Tournament doesnt allow Belakor... oh I would have him otherwise lol

For the portal I would drop the nurgle dude for Belakor and take a harold for it, sadly this isnt an option so I must chase. Even if I dont get invis its still tough.

I would agree with you good sir. With 5 rolls on Telepathy you're bound to get something good. A bunch of Psychic Shrieks might even work pretty well against something like Tau.

I could go as high as 7. Daemons dont require taking a god specific power so its 3 per prince and one on Fateweaver. That being said it wil be rare that I would use all 3 of the Nurgle princes on telepathy unless the other army has little ignore cover.

Yeah I just figured you'd keep 1 power for FF on the Tzeentch prince and 1 for whatever is on the Plague Discipline. I have yet to play around with much Nurgle
