I want to use Knights and I want to use Orges(Cause i have some minotaur models I was to convert into them)

Otherwise any lists or advice would be greatly enjoyed as what is decided on here is what I will buy come January!

otherwise, 8th edition is largely about rank and file infantry and you are going to want to invest in chaos warriors (which are so money) and chaos marauders.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3718475.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3718475.page GMT Warriors of Chaos Help http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3719038.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3719038.page GMT Warriors of Chaos Help http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3719043.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3719043.page GMT Warriors of Chaos Help Trolls in the front or flank and warriors in the front or flank.

I have made a goal to have a 1500 point list built, painted and based by the end of this semester so I can play in a Fantasy Campaign this summer!

Today I bought my first box of Chaos Knights and will be starting a P&M to document my progress thru this endeavor. I also have a box of Minotaurs on route.

So a 30 brick of Warriors was what I heard talk of today at my FLGS.

I personally run 18 man units which work great IMO.
People also suggest running 20 per unit, I havent tried that but I mean it would give your some more wounds.

A local guy runs a unit of 40 warrior but as I said debuff spells are quite effective on them.

I would suggest a battalion since it is a pretty good deal and everything in there is awesome.

Over all I would suggest against such a large unit since you dont need it you are warriors you are better than even other races elite infantry.
Invest the points somewhere else that would get you more use.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3730708.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3730708.page GMT Warriors of Chaos Help http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3730787.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3730787.page GMT Warriors of Chaos Help
One unit of knights should do the trick.

The main thing is getting some magic in there and if possible a bsb. That is most likely going to be a tight because you only have 375 point for lords and 375 for heroes. So it will take some tinkering to get something you like and something effective. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3732172.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3732172.page GMT Warriors of Chaos Help http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3737020.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3737020.page GMT Re:Warriors of Chaos Help BSB @ 1500 points. Would you like a skeleton to work with?

Sorcerer Lord - level 4, talisman of preservation = 315

Exalted Hero - BSB, talisman of endurance = 165

18 Warriors - full command, halberds = 318
18 Warriors - full command, shields = 318
5 Warhounds = 30
5 Warhounds = 30

6 Trolls = 270 [OR] 5 Knights - MoK, musician = 240
-----------------
1446 / 1416

No marks (beyond the knights which are pretty much a no brainer for just five of them) and no additional equipment means you're pretty open on modeling and final seasoning I have further recommendations to make, but I think this is basically the 1500 WoC list, striped down (other lists use their troll / knight points for marauders or hellcannons or *SHOCK* a shaggoth (mine ))

I run a Tzeentch themed army so I'm a little biased, but I think its a little more user friendly then a Khorne army. Thats because you have complete control over your units, with Khorne there is a the chance you could get drawn out of position and just about everyone knows how to exploit Frenzy.

some of my favored unit setups,

Sorcerer Lord (Lvl4, MoT, Infernal puppet, Talisman of Preservation(4+) Third Eye of Tzeench) 395 pts The lore of Tzeentch is a good one, although sometimes I do wish I could take Shadow and keep my 3+ ward save his ability to steal spells is fun, especially if your opponent has something good like Life or Shadow.

Chaos Lord (Sword of Change, Talisman of Endurance(5+) Charmed Shield) MoT, Bloodcurdling Roar) 340 pts Tzeentch lords can be surprisingly killy, mostly because they punch pretty hard already and then Tzeentch makes them very difficult to kill. The sword of change is a nice weapon, +1 str AND the potential to insta-kill a character or monster is an awsome combo.

20 Chosen (Favor of the Gods, Wailing Banner, Halbards, Shields, MoT) 525 pts This is a Tzeentchy killing machine. 3+ armor vs Shooting, Str5 attacks, WS6, and a very high chance of getting a 3+ ward save and Stubborn(Chosen EotG roll, which is effected by the Wailing Banner and Favor of the Gods, allows you to only get the good rolls and likely get the very good roll)

For my Knights I run them with the Blasted Standard and MoT. 1+ armor, 6+ ward, and a 4+ ward against shooting(especially cannons)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3738971.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3738971.page GMT Warriors of Chaos Help
I have decided to Build, Paint and base a 1500 point list this semester and feature each part on a P&M.

I am starting with the knights and have a box of 3 trolls on the way. So quick question would it be a huge issue if I modeled all them with the lances?


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Also for anyone interested you can now find the P&M that will be following this thread in my Sig! ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3746427.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3746427.page GMT Warriors of Chaos Help I'm actually not sure what else you want to run in your army, did you care for the skeleton I posted? You can probably replace the BSB with Throgg, replace a unit of warriors with 7 trolls, then give the warriors probably MoT + shields to escort the level 4 and tear things up. Should work well.

If you're interested, here's my recommendation:

Sorcerer Lord - level 4, talisman of preservation, infernal puppet = 350

Throgg = 175

19 Warriors - MoT, gleaming pennant, full command, shields = 359
7 Trolls = 315
5 Warhounds = 30
5 Warhounds = 30

5 Knights - MoK, musician = 240
----------
1499

Incorporates what you've mentioned, plus has a tizz bunker with pretty rocking level 4. Any of the lores should work well for you - I'm partial to fire myself, and it fills in the list's weakness vs regeneration, particularly with flaming sword of pants 'splosion Shadow is of course Obviously Good though.

As far as lances on your knights go, I heartily suggest you not pay points for them or use them in a game. Ever (or at least until the next book comes out, and maybe not even then!) As to modeling, I myself would prefer that knights with ccw not have lances instead, however I prefer consistency and a lack of confusion in my modeling choices. More than likely your opponent will not mind if your knights simply have 'awesome extremely long-hafted ensorcelled weapons' (though if you care about tournaments and stuff those lances would not by WYSIWYG, strictly speaking).

-Boss- What Skeleton? And your list looks exactly what I was kinda looking for...And as for the lances I just want to throw on or two into the modeling of the squad for a little awesomeness.

Also i have heard mixed reviews on the warhounds, what are the up & downs? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3746623.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3746623.page GMT Warriors of Chaos Help LD, but when taking Throgg all your dogs are LD8 and get to reroll panic checks.

The least glamorous is likely drawing out fanatics or sitting on mangler squigs. Seriously, play O&G once and you will see how vital a couple packs of puppies are.

You could mount him if you wanted the mobility and the armor boost, but then he also becomes a better target for enemy artillery (because he'll likely get no LOS! roll) or just in general (if he's flying about on his own). The sorcerer you most often see mounted are sorcerers of tzeentch on discs, as they have such heavy ward saves that they can usually soak enemy attention. You'll need to do some cutting to make this dude fit though - MoT for 20, disc for 20, charmed shield for 5 ...

You clearly have never sat down with a gigantic loaf of sourdough, make sure its nice and chewy, and a stick of butter. Which is what i would equate a Disk Sorceror to.

Your jaw will be sore afterwards, but you will feel very satisfied. its not even all that calorie heavy, just make sure you eat a salad next meal.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3754772.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/418864/3754772.page GMT Warriors of Chaos Help
