Well Homecon next weekend will help me decide if I'm going to invest in Warriors of Chaos as my main fantasy army.
The host Pete is kindly letting me borrow his models for the two days and I will bring a few along to supplement what I need.
Hopefully I will like them enough to get stuck into them with the paint as I don't have a fully painted army for fantasy. Personally its sucks big time considering how I usually clean up in the presentation category in 40K.
So heres my thoughts for a list which should function well and has a little bit of everything I'd like to buy and paint up.
Sorcerer Lord, L4, Infernal Puppet, Charmed Shield, Stream of Corruption Talisman of Preservation (shadow magic) 375
Sorcerer, L2, Tzeentch, Disc, Talisman of Prot, Third Eye, Dispel Scroll 225
Exalted Champ, Tzeentch, BSB, Collar of Khorne, Enchanted Shield 185
24 Chaos Warriors, Tzeentch, Shields, FC, Standard of Discipline 449
30 Marauders, Khorne, FC, Flails 200
30 Marauders, Khorne, FC, GW 200
5 Chaos Hounds 30
5 Chaos Hounds 30
5 Marauder Horsemen, Slaanesh, Muso, L Armour, Spears, Throwing Spears 96
3 Chaos Trolls
5 Chaos Knights, Khorne, muso, standard, Banner of Eternal Flame 270
Hellcannon 205
Total 2400
Everything should perform some role in most games, the trolls are a personal want as I'd love to get the plastic River Trolls and have some fun. The second Mage is so I can make a cool conversion I have in mind and the rest is what I see tearing through a dead forest leaking shadows and darkness from their skin. When I actually paint up a test model it'l make sense.
Don't give the knights the flaming banner!!! They have magic weapons so flaming doesn't work
ReplyDeleteGood point - any other good advice for the build or tweaks to make? I'm still playing around with it
ReplyDeleteI can see the points are pretty tight, but the trolls would be so much better as a unit of 6. They move into being a proper fighting unit at that point, and you can get some awesome eye of the gods stuff going.
ReplyDeleteI'd probably drop the marauder cav and a couple of warriors to get the points.
The rest looks good, but don't let Dad realise your Tzeentch BSB is wearing the Collar of Khorne - that'll really get him going ;)
Good luck for the weekend.
