She really likes the models for Daemonettes and the ForgeWorld Keeper. I want her to actually win some games as well. So, I need your help for a 2000 point list, here's what I have so far:

HQ:
Keeper of Secrets - Pavane of Slaanesh, Daemonic Gaze, Unholy Might, Transfixing Gaze - 265

The Masque - 100

Herald of Slaanesh - Transfixing Gaze, Unholy Might - 65

Elite:
3x Flamers of Tzeentch - 105

3x Flamers of Tzeentch - 105

3x Flamers of Tzeentch - 105

Troops:
6x Pink Horrors - Chaos Icon, The Changeling - 132

6x Pink Horrors - Chaos Icon - 127

10x Daemonettes - Chaos Icon - 165

10x Daemonettes - Chaos Icon - 165

10x Daemonettes - Chaos Icon - 165

Heavy Support:
Soul Grinder - 1 Mawcannon upgrade - 160

Soul Grinder - 1 Mawcannon upgrade - 160

Soul Grinder - 1 Mawcannon upgrade - 160

Total: 1979

Ideas, suggestions?

My only thought is maybe drop one of the squads of Daemonettes for a squad of Seekers and put the Herald onto a steed.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/296852/1607188.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/296852/1607188.page GMT 2000 Chaos Daemons - Help my girlfriend get an army!
Field Daemonettes in units of 20, not 10 or they will die in a real hurry.

You can put bloodcrushers in an elite slot if you need a tarpit unit or some staying power (you'll need it).

Drop mawcannon for phlegm.

Flamers and Seekers have their upsides, have her proxy some games with both and see what works best before she buys.

I personally do not like pink horrors but some people are very good with them. Those people however run Tzeentch themed lists.


Edit: spelling

She's more interested in painting and modeling than playing (that's not to say she doesn't enjoy playing, she is just more into the painting and modeling) and we have narrowed her army choices down to a Sisters heavy Witch Hunters army or Chaos Daemons.

You have too many icons... not enough staying power and too many upgrades try this out

HQ #1 Keeper of Secrets - Soporific Musk,Transfixing Gaze
HQ #2 Keeper of Secrets - Soporific Musk,Transfixing Gaze

Elite #1 maxed out unit of fiends of slaneesh

Troop #1 18 Deamonettes with icon
Troop #2 18 Deamonettes with icon
Troop #3 5 horrors with one bolt upgrade
Troop #4 5 horrors with one bolt upgrade
Troop #5 5 horrors with one bolt upgrade and one changling upgrade

Heavy Same as you have, 3 grinders with phlegm upgrade.

Flamers are nice little suicide troops, slam them beside a termy squad flame and then die, not a bad waste of 100 points.

My friend runs a 8ish man squad of fiends and two 3 man units of flamers and does pretty well.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/296852/1610669.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/296852/1610669.page GMT 2000 Chaos Daemons - Help my girlfriend get an army! http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/296852/1610872.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/296852/1610872.page GMT Re:2000 Chaos Daemons - Help my girlfriend get an army!
I also agree that there are way to many icons.
I'd go with 2 large blocks of Daemonettes (at least 18, if not 20), each with an icon. Then take as many smaller squads of horrors as you can. all those squads should have the bolt upgrade, and for 5 points, you might as well grab the changeling as well.

Should work out reasonably well.

Oh yeah...drop the pavane and gaze on the Keeper. That model's going to almost always want to run and then fleet. And since you've got the masque, you don't really need more pavanes.

Oh yeah...tongue for the soul grinders. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/296852/1611279.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/296852/1611279.page GMT 2000 Chaos Daemons - Help my girlfriend get an army! atm.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/296852/1611381.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/296852/1611381.page GMT 2000 Chaos Daemons - Help my girlfriend get an army!
