I plan on sending this guy up the flank, maybe even in a unit of DR's, for some surpise. He can do it all, combo charge with some DRs, cast, go in a unit of Mtd. Daemonettes, character hunt. He's a jack of all trades (and comes in at enough for several units, anyway!)I'll deploy him a tad back of the cavalry he'll join depending on the enemy


Sorceress
Level 2 Wizard; Slaanesh; Dispel Scroll(x1); Darkstar Cloak
Mount: Dark Steed
207
Fly solo, or with Dark Riders.

Sorceress
Level 2 Wizard; Slaanesh; Tome of Furion; Seal of Ghrond
Mount: Dark Steed
202

Same, she'll be alone, or with the other riders.

10 Devoted of Slaanesh
Musician
126
They'll protect my RBTs. Other then that, they're really just a rear guard. Their role is to make sure nothing gets right in bakc of my army (unlikely with my speed, but you have to take them, and I didn't want more non-scouting infantry

5 Shades

I'm going to see how this works out. With a lot of terrain, I imagine they'll be invaluable. I can use them to augment my Dark Riders in harassment. I imagine I'll have extra, but I had 74 points left, and decided to add a 3rd unit!

5 Dark Riders
Repeater Crossbows; Musician

Standard roles. They'll be setting up bait charges for the Daemonettes. Until then, they house my sorceresses

5 Mounted Daemonettes

M10!!?!?!?! How can I not get two units of these guys? They zoom up a weak flank and open up their army. The anointed can go with one of them, or just be near them. Their lack of armor is distressing though.

2 RBT's
Help me determine where my enemy doesn't go. Stick them on the same flank as my Daemonettes, and he won't put anything hard there, allowing me to defeat them easier

There you have it.
I fear that I have too many points in characters, and although slaaneshi magic will help me greatly, I have 850 points (including the anointed who also serves as a huge hammer) invested in 6 levels of magic, for a very fast army. Is this too much? Should I drop one sorceress and get something more substantive, like a noble, an aspiring champ or something non-character related?

Also, do I have too many scouts? Will there be enough terrain for all 3 units? I don't think that there's anything I could get with 70 or even 140 points, save for a 3rd RBT that would aid my list, although I could drop one unit of DRs an upgrade them to a 3rd unit of Mtd. Daemonettes, but thats not somehting I think I'd like to do, as thats limiting my shooting greatly.

Daemonettes are great, 2S4 attacks, but there my only hard hitter, save for the anointed and the RBTs. I don't think I could handle any anount of cavalry in a straight up fight, as I have nothing that can open up heavy armor except for the anointed again and the RBTs. This puts me at a serious disadvantage against bretts or a Silverhelm HE army.

So, there you have it.

hmm...i like the list but i think a few less shades maybe 2 units of 6, and your characters i dislike, if you want real anointed power chuck magic, give him a steed of slanesh and the item that causes terror put him in a unit of 6 deamonets and you have a force that will terrorise the enemys flanks, the RBT are good as gold especialy in your army although you may find desperate foes charging strait for them in an all or nothing assault (especialy hordes who can shrug of your harassment, make sure your devoteds are in a good position to cause damage, they must hold until your daemonets can arive on the seen, you could use this as a bait (put your sorceress' by the RBT and leave your devoteds in a bad position, then use slanesh magic to send the enemy army into chaos right in front of your RBT ah the pain... )

p.s. how many points and slim down your sorceress' a bit (take out the darkstar cloak and seal of grond not worth it)

RTB?
apart from my ignorance, there is nothing on this page i don't like. I would love to use this army, but i would be tempted to down one of the sorcerers by a level, and drop a unit of shades and use the extra points for..... who knows? but thats just the way i play.

Just to mention a minor issue, anything with the mark of slanesh can't go with mortal troops. Your sorceress can't go with the DR.

I realized that a while ago. Just didn't feel like changing it.

Well then you are a big lazy pants Baran. And would you ever use this list in one of the online games against the angels because that could be interesting.

Baranthazul - January 29, 2006 06:20 PM (GMT)
Thats an amazing idea. I can play the 25(uggh) of february. And to a marginal extent, I can probably play tarag on tuesday.
