Why the Tzeentch warriors? Given that Nurgle are more survivable and you're not even using the iron curse icon to maximise survivability from range. Why Tzeentch on the BsB without 3rd eye. Personally Id run him Khorne on Daemonic mount with the Juggers.

Also the Chimera without breath weapon needs plenty of support and with no chariots it becomes an obvious cannon target. Pair with breath and support it with chariots or drop it.

Hellcannon at a Tournament that is likely to see a lot of HElves is probably a bad idea.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/526624/5612415.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/526624/5612415.page GMT 2400 WoC ETC list

You lose out on the armor save, but outside of WS10 guys (who hit you on 5's) everything hits you on 6's.
The loss of armor isn't a good thing, but with the restrictions on every armies shooting you'll be seeing less shooting threats.

As for the Tzeentch / Nurgle Warrior debate, Nurgle survive better in CC (except against HE I think), but Tzeentch get to combat far more reliably. I love the blasted standard on them - watch shooty armies weep.

Not having a level 4 is not ideal - you could go for the Tzeentch Prince too and go level 4, drop the extra sorc to a 1 with dispel scroll.

I personally think 4 skullcrushers is enough, since yuo can't get a 5th into B2B reliably, and I think the chimera needs a breath weapon.

Could be nice overall though.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/526624/5619120.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/526624/5619120.page GMT 2400 WoC ETC list http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/526624/5619182.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/526624/5619182.page GMT 2400 WoC ETC list PG / chariots, -1 to hit is pretty close to +1 ward save

Will do the maths at some point to work out exactly.


Nurgle: 5/9ths hit (5+ with reroll) 1/3rd wound, 1/3rd fail armor, 5/6 fail ward = 0.0514 kills per attack
Tzeench: 3/4ths hit, (4+ with re-roll) 1/3rd wound, 1/3rd fail armor, 2/3rds fail ward = 0.0555 kills per attack.
Khorne: 3/4 hits, 1/3rd wound, 1/2 fail armor(no shield) = 0.125 kills per attack.

Nurgle loses 1 chaos warrior per 19.4 attacks.
Tzeench loses 1 chaos warrior per 18 attacks.
Khorne loses 1 per 8 attacks.
Khorne w/shield: 1 per 12 attacks. (no parry due to frenzy)

The point is, it doesn't matter vs S3. T4 3+ and parry (with super parry or -1 to be hit) is so tough, neither is going to do much.
Even vs khorne, the full sized super horde is only killing ~6 guys.
Against nurgle/tzeench a full horde of martial spears are getting 50 attacks and killing 2-3 guys.

But swinging back...
Nurgle/tzeench is .37 kills per attack, with 2 attacks in the front rank (0.74 kills per model in the front rank)
Khorne 2nd hand weapon: .37 kills per attack (4 attacks each) = 1.48 kills from each model in the front rank.
Khorne halberd: .55 kills per attack (3 attacks each) = 1.66 kills from each model in the front rank.
Khrone Great Weapon: as halberd, only striking last.
Khorne extra hand weapon and razor standard: .44 kills per attack or 1.78 per model in the front rank.

So dropping shield off the unit costs you 2 kills or so, but the extra killing power is significant. Surprisingly, 2nd hand weapons and razor standards went fast.

Why didn't you do the Maths on the best all round combo of Nurgle + Halberd? Not saying I think it would particularly do well against PG but it is in general the best config for warriors now.

Nurgle isn't always the best.
In an even fight, 18 warriors are going to be facing ~40 elves.
Nurgle hits on 3's, kills on 2's with 18 attacks. Killing 10, or ~90 points.
Khorne does the same, but with 24 attacks killing 13.33 or 120 points.

Elves would get ~36 attacks.
vs Nurgle (5/9 hit, 1/3rd wound, 1/2 fail armor), kills 3.33 or 63 points.
vs khorne (3/4 hit, 1/3rd wound, 1/2 fail armor) kills 4.5 or 85.5 points.

Khrone wins by ~9 kills or 34 points worth of killed models.
Nurgle wins by ~7 kills or 27 points worth of killed models.

So if you're looking at combat res, stripping steadfast or point for point, Khorne is better. They take more losses, but kill faster than they are losing guys.
The same pattern holds true for all match ups, except vs Phoenix guard. Against phoenix guard, all flavor of warriors lose on a point for point match up.
Chosen Khorne warriors with extra hand weapons and razor banner is the most effective vs high elves.
I'd most likely still field a block of nurgle with halberds just to take the focus off the chosen.
So many people are convinced that Nurgle with halberd is best, I would use that as a distraction pulling attention away from the chosen of khorne.

Basically, a 25% increase in kills is usually better than keeping 1 or 2 more warriors alive.

Against shooting heavy armies this is a massive plus.

I am rying them out as a wide screen with Khorne or Nurgle guys following them in.
