I'm getting a real boner from this helbrute rule set. Nobody posted on this the last time I posted it so I'm trying one more time. Try this list for size:

2000 points:

Sorcerer Lord- ML 3, SoC, BaleStar
Sorcerer Lord- MoT, ML3, Spell Familiar, AoDG
9 Thousand Sons- Rhino(lord here)
9 Thousand Sons- Rhino(lord here)
Helbrute- additional Power Fist, 2 Heavy Flamers
Helbrute- additional Power Fist, 2 Heavy Flamers
Helbrute- additional Power Fist, 2 Heavy Flamers
Heldrake- Baleflamer
Herald of Tzeentch- Disk of Tzeentch, Grimoire of True Names, Mastery Level 3
11 Pink Horrors
11 Pink Horrors
9 Screamers (Herald)

According to the new helbrutes rules, taking this formation allows all 3 helbrutes to deepstrike together, roll a crazed result together at the start of each movement phase even if they haven't been hit, and all have IWND
The idea is all the divination gives a high chance of getting scriers gize(each of the two sorcerers has a 72% chance), getting those 570 points of deep strikers on the board ASAP. Screamer star soaks up fire until that happens while pink horrors hide in ruins and rhinos hide in 5+ terrain and pop smoke. Then the tsons and pink horrors walk up the board and clean up everything thats still burning. Screamers and helbrute fists pop armor, I plan on ignoring air as there is basically none in my area. I can Vector Strike with my drake the one or two fliers I'll see.

THOUGHTS ON IMPROVING THIS LIST OF FIRE?

Fun and fluffy Tzeentchiness! I like it. Any way you can make room for a second Herald? That's where I run my ScreamerStar Lite Brite and I feel like it would start to suffer without a second. What about dropping on squad of horrors and 2 screamers? that should net you a secon ML3 Herald with a Locus of Conjuration for S6 goodness. If you roll your Heralds first ('cause you always roll for div with them) that might free up some rolls on biomancy or telepathy with your Sorcerors.

Good luck with it brotha!
