Nothing over-the-top competitive, but I've been itching to change up my usual WE lists (which is normally a Soulforged Pack filled with Blood Slaughterers + Bezerkers) and thought about going a little bit more horde.



CSM Battalion - World Eaters, Host Raptorial



Chaos Lord - jump pack, power fist, bolt pistol, Field Commander (The Tip of the Spear)

Chaos Lord - power sword, bolt pistol



10x Cultists

10x Cultists

10x Cultists



5x Warp Talons

5x Warp Talons



5x Havocs - 4x autocannons, flamer

5x Havocs - 4x chaincannons, flamer





Daemon Battalion



Daemon Prince - Wings, Skullreaver, Warlord (Oblivious to Pain)

Skullmaster - the Crimson Crown



20x Bloodletters - icon, instrument

20x Bloodletters - icon, instrument

10x Bloodletters



1500 points on the nose.

The general plan is to Banner of Blood both large Bloodletter squads and have them, the Talons and the jump Lord in Deep Strike. The foot Lord gives rerolls to the Havocs who are there to clear some screens or transports turn 1 (2 if they survive that long). Everything drops in around the jump lord/Skullmaster for the charge rerolls and strength bonus, and the Talons remove all overwatch.



A bit gimmicky, and could get shut down pretty easily, but hopefully fun? Thoughts?

I've used a very similar list before but with zerkers and only a khorne patrol. It was the best I ever got out of world eaters and the warp talons work really well to shut down overwatch for the blodletters.

Only problem you might have is that you have to start with 1/2 your points on the board and you look a little over that.

Would you get gummed up by marine infiltrators with their 12in wide deepstrike denial bubbles?
Or is there some way to get aroudn that with this forcemix

host raptorial charge plus icons might do the trick.

Altough it still blocks you hard.

small_gods: About 650ish points are deepstriking, so it should be all good. Would you mind sharing your list, with zerkers? I'm curious as to whether its worth investing as much into the daemons as I am. Dunno whether one large 30 man squad would be worth it over the 2x20, maybe upgrading to chaincannons on the second Havoc squad with the remaining points.

Dukeofstuff: Yeah... that would screw me up very well. Unless I get lucky with the Havocs' shooting, but even then. If I'm forced to deepstrike outside of 12", I can't even declare the charge. Probably would end up relying on the Prince and Skullmaster to clear a landing zone.

Another iteration I had was with Flesh Hounds instead of cultists, which woul dhave potential to help with the clearing duties - just leave me running on 2CP for the actual game.

This is the list that I found on BattleScribe. Although I think I took oblits and more bezerkers sometimes as well.
