I still have 32 points left. It's still a work in progress, but I'd consider dropping the princes for Soulgrinders, but I only have one right now and don't feel like buying another at the moment.

Thoughts?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/474786/4738948.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/474786/4738948.page GMT 2000 point symmetric Daemons
I think your troops are too fragile at this point - at 2k you are going to get blown off the board before you can do anything. Also, I like Screamers in 6-9 groups a bit more.

I would eliminate a herald of Tzeetch, since there is nowhere to put the second one, to make this all happen.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/474786/4739634.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/474786/4739634.page GMT Re:2000 point symmetric Daemons
What you want to do instead is design your army so that its got essentially two parts. The first part is going to be your primary. This is going to include some core units that you want to have drop as part of your primary, and who's purpose is to take the battle to your opponent as quickly as possible. In other words, hitting power should be your primary concern.

The other half should be structured not so much for hitting power, but for survival. The point of that half is to buy time. You want that half to be able to drop, and survive enemy attention until your primary hitters come in.

You can also design it so that some of the units are "floaters" moving between the primary and secondary halves depending on your opponent, but it's not strictly necessary.

Hmm, I'll check the costs when I get home. I'm using an app on my phone to build the list, I had found a few other errors, but I haven't checked the heralds yet.
