AekoldHelbrass Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Do you have to take Nurgle and Tzeench units to be competitive with Daemons? Can you do something worthy only with Slaanesh+Khorne? Both Slaanesh and Khorne really really lack toughness, they're dying too fast. Will it be possible to compensate lack of Screamers and Plague Drones with Slaanesh Furies and Flesh Hounds?

TheDevourer Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 I´m trying out a Circus with Fateweaver (He´s just too good), a keeper of secrets, plague bearers in troops and 3 Slaaneshi Daemon Princes. As allies I would say that Slaanesh suit csm quite well. But I too see the issue that slaanesh and khorne are much too squishy, although I have the feeling that slaanesh units are much better than khorne units albeit the bloodthirster. I see a Beast Rush list working well with slaanesh, but you will be shot down by Tau or Imperial Guard quite happily. The problem with furies is that they fall as soon as they lose one combat and that can happen very quickly. Flesh hounds I have seen played a few times. Large Squads in combination with the grimoire were a pain to take down and they were also highly mobile and very hard hitting.

Wolf Guard Dan Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 My buddy who is playing a lot of tournies has seen a mono khorne army run well. I recommend flesh hounds. It was horde-y.

Ulfast Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 I think it can work but you have to go with the "Horde-style", lot of troops and models so when the shooting starts and you die you still have some left over. another way is to go with lot of MC and souldgrinders. That can be tought. Myself is going to add more Slannesh troops like daemottes and seekers :) I need some more speed Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/278114-competitive-without-nurgleslaanesh/#findComment-3413755 Share on other sites More sharing options...
minigun762 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Khorne Dogs supported by Daemonettes would be highly aggressive and fast. Just make sure you have something to help with AA and AV14.
