I'm trying to begin small (cause we all know how much it can be to start an army these days

One of the nice things about a Daemon army is that it's possible to build a 2000 point army for a relatively small amount of money. If you go the Flying Circus route, you can have a strong (if spammy) army with a low model count for just a few hundred USD.

Fateweaver $60ish
3x Daemon Princes $120ish ($40 each)
Two boxes of troops $70

That ~$250 will get you up to 1500-1850 pretty easily. You could get to 2000 with another DP of a different mark in the empty HQ slot, or more troops, or some elites. In any case you could get to 2000 points for at or under $300.

My son runs Tyranids, and to get to 1500 he runs:
2 Flyrants at $60 each ($120)
2 Tervigons at $60 each ($120)
2 units of 2 Hive Guard at $25 each ($100)
Doom (uses a Zoanthrope) $25
Lots of Termigants (easily over $100 to have enough to spawn 'gant during a game)

@ 500, that'll be tough.... but your second list, might drop a unit of bearers for them, plus a couple of greater gifts too.
Portalglyph is likely to spawn more troops for objective camping. Grimoire will help keep your princes/Fatey alive.

At 1250, you might also do well with only 2 princes. I'd consider trading one for 10 hounds and 5-8 screamers. Both move fast, scare opponents, and are scoring in one of the missions.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550071/6015943.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550071/6015943.page GMT Trying to Start Daemons - 500 pts
10 Plaguebearers of Nurgle 90

420 points

I faced something similar to this recently in a campaign. It was brutal. No one else could even touch this at 500.

It does have some room for changes and I forget the full list, but you get the gist of it.

Come to think of it, I think that the GUO was a lvl 2 as he had more stuff.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550071/6015974.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550071/6015974.page GMT Re:Trying to Start Daemons - 500 pts http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550071/6015982.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550071/6015982.page GMT Trying to Start Daemons - 500 pts

7 Nurgling Swarms 105

500 points

That's the correct list.

Yeah, give it a try. Only Tau gave him problems as his GUO tanked just about everything and his PB had cover from the Nurglings.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550071/6016030.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550071/6016030.page GMT Trying to Start Daemons - 500 pts

I agree with two princes at 1250. I'd use the extra points on Greater Rewards and more Psyker levels. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550071/6016248.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550071/6016248.page GMT
