Subject: [1850] - Khorne Daemonkin - ITC Tourney List
I have a tournament coming up that I am trying to get my army ready for. I have narrowed it down to three variations and I was hoping some of you might be able to help me further narrow it down. I have never played in an ITC tournament before, so I am not sure what to expect when it comes to the rounds. The listing doesn't tell what each round will be, whether KP or OBJ based. These are the best lists that I could come up with based on the models that I have. I have many models I could switch out, but some of the special additions are that way (such as upgrading autopistols to autoguns on Cultists) due to having to be WSYIWYG. Without further ado, the lists.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
1850 CAD w/ 1 Heldrake + Gorepack
HQ Bloodthirster of Insenate Rage (Warlord)
Bloodthirster of Unfettered Fury
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Removed due to it not being a legitimate list for the Tournament
SlaughterCult + Gorepack
Spoiler:
SlaughterCult
Bloodthirster of Insenate Rage (Warlord)
8xBloodletters, Instrument of Chaos
8xBloodletters
7xChaos Cultists, 1xLeader
4xPossessed, 1xLeader
Lord of Slaughter
Bloodthirster of Unfettered Fury
I think I am leaning towards the first list. I haven't had a chance to play test it yet. I have play tested a variation of the Slaughtercult list against a friend's Tau army. It was a strictly KP game and I held my own fairly well. His list wasn't quite as competitive as I had hoped, so I was able to actually table him rather handily. I also wondered what people here valued more, 6 flesh hounds or an MSU of chaos bikes with meltas (I'd have to find 5 points elsewhere for the melta bombs) as I have 3 more bikers that I could run in the gorepack.
As from an ITC standpoint, do I have enough units for scoring? KDK doesn't really have a way to get ObjSec short of troops, so I will already be at a disadvantage to those armies.
Any advice you can offer would be great!
(Edited the first list slightly to include the proper bloodthirsters and forgot to add the Lord of Slaughter into the slaughtercult detachment.)

I think the first list really good but it does need some tweaks...
I suggest to put off the cultist upgrades and invest some points in power weapons/ more flesh hounds for your gorepack. Also, whats the point of the spawn? Extra blood tithe? I suggest dropping some of your hounds to 5 and then use the spare hounds in your fast attack slot in your cad. As for ITC the missions should be on Frontlinegaming's website, it will tell you what each round would look like. Its good to know what you are heading into. Other than that GL IRON WITHIN IRON WITHOUT

The cultist upgrades in the first list are unfortunately due to me not having enough cultist models with autopistols. I have a large number of the Dark Vengeance models and they come with autoguns stock. At the end of the day, that would still only save me probably 12 points :( I'm assuming you're speaking about power weapons for the bikers right? I don't intend to really get them into close combat as they are some of the few bits of "reliable" tank busting that the list has. Otherwise I will be relying on the flesh hounds rolling high on the charge or using my unfettered rage BT to wreck tanks. In my experience, the maulerfiends rarely make it to the tank lines lol.
The spawn is there for two purposes.. One is for a blood tithe. The other is to have another faster unit that will most likely be ignored for a majority of the game with so many other threats to grab points towards the end.
I also realized after reading through the rules again that my slaughtercult list is not legal. The tournament only allows 3 detachments in total and that one has 5. Guess I will nix it!
Thank you for pointing me to the frontline gaming website.. It didn't even dawn on me that I should look there!
