It might be a one trick pony, but I think Flying MCs is a pretty good trick. Deploying the guys in a cluster on the landing pad will mean that the nearby LoCs will be able to take advantage of Fateweaver's aura turn 1 without deviation shenanigans. Besides that there is room for a ton of AP 2 and 3 shooting, AP 3 vector strikes, and challenging Sergeants and ICs to single combat.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4468796.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4468796.page GMT Re:6e Chaos Daemons skies of death

Do it!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4468836.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4468836.page GMT Re:6e Chaos Daemons skies of death
Fateweaver
Bloodthirster (Mights, BotBG)

4 units of 5x Pink Horrors (one with Changeling, all with Bolt)

4x Daemon Prince of Tzeentch (Wings, Bolt, Gaze, Iron Hide)

I chose to have all the MCs enter play Swooping, destroyed units of Immortals with vector strikes, landed when appropriate and smashed his vehicles. It was a good time. I had originally planned on using a CSM prince and some 1k Sons, but with the CSM FAQ make the CSM Daemon prince a Jump MC instead of a Flying MC, I'll just go with the doubling of the FOC at 2k points.

I still might ally with CSM and just use a Chaos Sorcerer of Tzeentch, but for now I'm just going to use the models I have and put as many Flying Monstrous Creatures into the sky as I can. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4468876.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4468876.page GMT Re:6e Chaos Daemons skies of death Also, did you consider that Soul Devourer gives your Greater Daemons Power Weapons, which could theoretically be used to give them Power Mauls for +2 S and Concussive, while keeping AP 2 from smash?

Yes, I've been considering a similar list. The main difference would be adding a bloodthirster for higher strength vector strikes.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4468891.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4468891.page GMT Re:6e Chaos Daemons skies of death
Also I'd give all of the Lords of Change master of sorcery because vector strike counts as firing a weapon in the next shooting phase. It's only 10 points.

Breath of Change for overwatch, when you aren't swooping might be alright too but pricy.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4468908.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4468908.page GMT Re:6e Chaos Daemons skies of death http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4469198.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4469198.page GMT 6e Chaos Daemons skies of death

Deploying the guys in a cluster on the landing pad will mean that the nearby LoCs will be able to Look Out, Sir for Fateweaver and keep him airborne.

Haha, interesting, looks really cool and could be nasty, vector strikes with Lord of Change is actually really good, same with all MCs. MOT MCs, are so expensive points wise its crazy thats my only issue. I want to run a similiar list, believe it our not I have all the models already, but I want to make a 1776 points list and find it difficult to have high point value MCs to seem effective.

Not bad, this is a true circus, haha.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4482791.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4482791.page GMT 6e Chaos Daemons skies of death FMCs was an unstoppable wall of carnage.

Predictably, the Pink Horrors were really fragile and almost got shot off the table, but a few turns of savage flying circus Greater Daemons completely dismantled my opponent. And S8 Vector Strikes are liable to punch other flying vehicles right out of the sky. 'Nids flying circus doesn't have the invulnerable saves to survive anti-tank aerial shooting and the grounding tests that follow, but with 3++ and 4++ rerollable saves, Daemons might be a serious power contender.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4548163.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4548163.page GMT 6e Chaos Daemons skies of death http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4548251.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4548251.page GMT Re:6e Chaos Daemons skies of death HQ combo choices. 2 Greater Daemons, 1 Greater Daemon 2 Heralds, or 4 Heralds.

Unless I am missing something.

honestly this is what I was thinking lol.

At a lower total I'd have to drop to 2 hqs and up the daemon princes, but it's still the points more than the slots limiting me.

If I were redoing the list, I'd cut one of the HS Princes for more troops, and hand out a few upgrades, but the 4 Tzeentch greater daemons were amazing.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4549593.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4549593.page GMT Re:6e Chaos Daemons skies of death

You do not get a S8 vector strike even if the power mauls are +2. You strike at yor unmodified strength 6. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4549689.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4549689.page GMT 6e Chaos Daemons skies of death LoC that has no weapons does he have a power fist instead?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4551038.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/458611/4551038.page GMT
