Hey, preparing for a small 1000 point tournament with some friends (altough they will play competitive lists).

Probably will play against Beastclaw, Bloodbounds, Chaos Mixed, Stormcast, Sylvaneth maybe Seraphon and some others i don't know yet.


My list is made of models i own and hopefully it's decent against my opponnents armies^^. Made two lists, which is better?

Here is also a small list of what models i own (30 Pink Horrors, 10 Blues, 10 Brims, 12 Flamers, 18 Screamers, 2 Ogroid Thaumaturge, 1 Herald of Tzeentch, 1 Blue Scribes, 10 Chaos Warriors, 1 Chaos Sorcerer Lord, 1 Gaunt Summoner, 12 Chaos Spawn, 1 Gorebeast Chariot, Archaon (big), 3 Varanguard, 8 Daemonprinces)

List 1:

Allegiance: Tzeentch

Heroes
Daemon Prince Of Tzeentch (160)
- General
- Trait: Incorporeal Form
- Artefact: Phantasmal Weapons
- Lore of Change: Bolt of Tzeentch
Daemon Prince Of Tzeentch (160)
- Trait: Incorporeal Form
- Lore of Change: Fold Reality
Ogroid Thaumaturge (160)
- Lore of Fate: Treacherous Bond
Ogroid Thaumaturge (160)
- Lore of Fate: Shield of Fate

Battleline
10 x Pink Horrors Of Tzeentch (140)
- Lore of Change: Unchecked Mutation
10 x Pink Horrors Of Tzeentch (140)
- Lore of Change: Arcane Transformation

Units
10 x Brimstone Horrors Of Tzeentch (40)

Total: 960/1000

Have 40 Points left to resummon the brims. List is a kind of "monster" mash. The Daemonprinces and the Ogroids can kinda hit hard in closecombat. Spells could buff my units or make them harder to remove.

The other list is exactly the same, i only replace one ogroid for a gaunt summoner and 10 Blues. With 50 Points left to resummon some Brims or Blues.

List 2:

Allegiance: Tzeentch

Heroes
Daemon Prince Of Tzeentch (160)
- General
- Trait: Incorporeal Form
- Artefact: Phantasmal Weapons
- Lore of Change: Bolt of Tzeentch
Daemon Prince Of Tzeentch (160)
- Trait: Incorporeal Form
- Lore of Change: Fold Reality
Ogroid Thaumaturge (160)
- Lore of Fate: Treacherous Bond
Gaunt Summoner (100)
- Lore of Fate: Shield of Fate

Battleline
10 x Pink Horrors Of Tzeentch (140)
- Lore of Change: Unchecked Mutation
10 x Pink Horrors Of Tzeentch (140)
- Lore of Change: Arcane Transformation

Units
10 x Brimstone Horrors Of Tzeentch (40)
10 x Blue Horrors Of Tzeentch (50)

Total: 950/1000


Any ideas or suggestions to my lists? What do you think of it?

Exactly how competitive are your opponent's lists going to be? From what you have there's not a lot in the cheese category that makes up competitive AoS so things may be tricky.

Don't know it yet, but i think most of them will play some kind of battalion and 1 or 2 Bemoth's.

Beastclaw maybe some tusks + mournfangs
Sylvaneth Arrowtrees with maybe an ancient or durthu.
Bloodbound with Gorepilgrims.

For the rest it can be everything^^.

List don't have to be cheese, i only want to have a decent chance against them^^.

OK. Go with the second list, but move the artifact from your general to your second daemon prince; this makes target priority more difficult for your opponent. Give your general the Arcane Transformation spell to cast on other big heroes then himself to bump their attacks. Give the second daemon prince bolt of change. Give the Ogroid infusion arcanum. Make your blue horror unit 20-man and put them in a line just in front of your pink horrors such that the enemy attacks that unit first before piling into the pinks in subsequent rounds. If you do it right, the blue unit will be depleted but still have a few models left on one flank, meaning when the pinks die your can use their splitting to replenish the blue unit.

Thx for the answer =).

Okay dann i only have to buy some more blues. Rest of the army is okay?

Which units would you recommand for more power?

Lord of change?

if this is after the release of the new GHB and you have 40 pts left: Chaos familiars (you can most probably ally them in in a tzeentch army when the new book is out)

some pts for summoning might come in handy (I often summon a herald on disc that I let summon a unit of flamers to take out crew or heroes or cause battleshock on a big unit etc )

you could take the gaunt summoner with familiars with a a balewind vortex for +2 on its casting attempts and double range on his spells. not sure if you can get regular familiars within 6" of summoner on top of the vortex for another +1, That should be a problem for a lot of horde armies.

The only thing that is fishy is that I am not sure that the summoner with familiars and the familiars will be in the next GHB. GWB has removed AOS rules from the familiars from there site, but you can still find them in the warriors of chaos compedium...

Thx for the advice =).

Seems i lack a lot of good units for disciples of tzeentch, maybe i should play my bloodbound army or make a generic mixed chaos army.
