I've got a decent list, but I'm considering changing it substantially.


Here's what I have:
PURE TZEENTCH BATTALION
Tzerald
LoC with Robes
20 Pinks Icon
25 Pinks Icon
10 Brims
PURE DAEMON BATTALION
Slerald on Steed
Poxbringer
3x3 Nurglings
PURE TSONS SUPREME
Winged Prince with Crystal
Winged Prince with Helm
Winged Prince
Ahirman on Disc
2x Rhino with 2 bolters and havoc
25 pts for splits
(Tzerald and Pinks in DS; LoC soaks firepower; Rhinos and LoC screen the characters; Slerald kills scouts; Nurglings deny Infiltrate)

Here's what I'm considering:
PURE TZEENTCH BATTALION
Tzerald
LoC with Robes
22 Pinks
2x10 Brims
PURE ALPHA LEGION BATTALION
Lord, Fist, Claw
Jump Lord, Fist, Claw
30 Cultists
2x5 Marines
2x3 Oblits
PURE TSONS SUPREME
Winged Prince with Crystal
Winged Prince with Helm
Winged Prince
(Tzerald and Pinks in DS; LoC has 2++; Jump Lord and Oblits in DS; Cultists screen and come back)

Thoughts?

How would your LoC have a 2++?
Base 4++ robe goes to 3++, if you are casting weaver of fate the spells says you cant go beyond 3++.

Technically Robes bring's him to a 4++, Empheral form adds 1 to the roll, so you can still use things like the Daemon Stratagem to bring him to a 3++ and then you would be adding +1 to the roll, effectively making him a 2++. Weaver of Fates cannot be cast on a LoC since it is not Heretic Astartes or Thousand Sons.

^This. Robes gives him a 4++. Surge improves an invuln by one, not to exceed 3, so he now has a 3++. Ephemeral Firm adds 1 to saving throws, so all my 2s count as 3s, effectively a 2++.
