TheDevourer - Pink Horrors Completed


TheDevourer

Recommended Posts

So here it goes. Time to start up my chaos daemons thread. For those of you who don´t know me: Prior to this thread I had been running one in the Legio Morbidus. Painting up a nurgle themed army. Though it is far from finished I felt dissatisfied with the csm codex and in a shopping spree decided it is time to start daemons.

I´ve had a number of test games with different takes on the flying circus style lists and I will try to post up some battle reports as they come in, aswell as show you some of my conversions/greenstuffing/painting. My goal is to build up a tournie army which will allow me to play something completely different to my previous list (Typhus zombie horde with oblits and drakes). I somehow feel the urge to not have to move as many figures anymore tongue.png.

So far daemons have been great fun albeit random. Got to love some of the warpstorm results. The thing that annoys me most is my ability to constantly throw 11s on psychic tests, but otherwise my lists have been very successful in my gaming group so far. Taking out Mechdar and mechdar with knights without major problems. Having success against sw, tau, imperial guard. And being snotted by Necrons.

Here my first batch of daemons fresh from the store.

One of my 3 Wip daemon princes of slaanesh. (I will post pics of the others at a later time as they are still being played in an apocalypse game)

And my first paint jobs on non nurgle units.

Those seeker mounts look incredible.  Well done. Do you use citadel paints for that or some other brand?

 

Echo - just superb.

 

But, I expect that from someone like you :P

 

Daemons are nasty to play against - hard to combat those re-rolls!

Ok so i made some progress today. Finished off my herald of slaanesh (Walking) and did a load of bases for my csm, aswell as starting off on the next 10 plague bearers.

 

I´m not sure how much I like the herald, i may revisit her and freehand some tattoos on her at a later time.

 

Well here she is:

Ok so I just had a 3v3. Playing 4500 points per side. 3* Daemons vs Eldar, Space Wolves and Blood Angels.

 

I played 

 

1 Herold of Tzeentch ML 3, +1S for spells 

1 Herold of Tzeentch ML 3 grimoire

1 Herold of Khorne Jugger, Axe of Khorne and Hatred for his squad

1 Chaos Sorceror ML 3 Terminator Armor Spell Familiar

10 Plague Bearers 

20 Horrors 

10 Cultists

15 Hounds

Baledrake

3 Obliterators MoN Votlw

 

Was an amazingly fun game. I won´t do a battle rep on it. Leave that to smaller games.

 

The Khorne Herold insta-gibbed two eldar wraithknights. The hounds tanked out big style. 

 

I must say I am in love with hounds. 

 

The horrors also performed well.

 

All round a very fun and powerful list.

 

My 1850 will have another squad of hounds in it aswell as another squad of plague bearers. Seems pretty nasty!

Ok so it would appear that the next tournie to be organized by myself and my fellow gaming members from NvwG will be taking some place in January. 

 

It is high time I got around to building lists for it. 

 

So it will be a 1000pts team tag, so a total of 2000pts per side.

 

Had a bit of a play test today and this is what we are going to try and build up by january.

 

List 1:

 

Khorne Herold

Jugger

Lesser Gift

Hatred for Squad

 

Khorne Herold 

Jugger

Grimoire

Hatred for squad

 

2*11 Plague Bearers

 

2*16 Khorne Hounds

 

List 2:

 

Herold of Tzeentch

ML 3

Grimoire

Disk

 

Herold of Tzeentch

ML3

Disk

 

Herold of Khorne

Lesser Gift

Jugger

Hatred for Squad

 

10 Pink Horrors

Champion

 

10 Plague Bearers

 

8 Screamers 

 

13 Hounds of Khorne

 

Just played against a double eldar combo. Long deployment, he got first turn, we got really bad spells (counter attack twice, prescience twice, ignores cover and 3d6 for reserves). I managed to get an extra lesser gift for my khorne herald. We got reroll on warpstorm table for both of our warlords.

 

The eldar list was the same for both. Consisting of:

 

Jet bike farseer

with cover save mantel

 

6 Fire dragons in wave serpent

 

1*5 and 1*6 Dire Avengers in wave serpent

 

1*Night spinner

 

After a lot of poor rolling on our side we managed to hold out strong in one turn which enabled us to assault quite a few of his units destroying 3 tanks and 3 infantry squads (he used them to block our charges). 

 

However, in the end the poor conditions for our list meant we only just managed to scrape a 10-10 in a 3 objective game. Losing all but 1 hound, 12 plague bearers and 10 horrors. While the eldar still had 1 farseer, 2 Serpents and 6 dire avengers.

 

Quite proud of how we managed considering the fact that we had quite a bad start.

Soooo I´ve finally recieved my Khorne Hounds from puppets war yaaaay =). All 30 of them look to be in great condition and I´m in love with the details on them.

On further note I´m nearing completion of my first 10 daemonettes :).

 

http://i1145.photobucket.com/albums/o504/TheDevourer1991/20131002_180841.jpg

Ok I just vowed for the call to chaos. The daemon part of my vow consists of 3*10 Fleshhounds, 1 Tzeentch herold and 1 Khorne herold on jugger with portalglyph.

 

I´m going to start off on the Tzeentch herold I think, followed by the khorne herold. Then I´ll have to order 29 bike bases for the rest of the hounds. 

 

I have an idea for the portalglyph. Kind of a group of rocks with nurglings surrounding them and a daemonic creature coming from the center of the stone formation. I kind of want to create a gate effect aswell, with the daemon coming out of the warp, but for the moment i remain clueless as to how I will achieve this. 

 

Ok so before call to chaos begins I´m going to start off on the last 9 daemonettes. I basecoated these quite a while ago and will hopefully have them finished on wednesday.

 

Back to painting now then I guess. If anyone has some cool ideas for the portal feel free to post them ;). Thanks.

#2 Tzeentch Herold 

Based in Regal Blue, Brushed in Space Wolves Grey, light shadow grey ink, Staff in balthasar gold and sword in leadbelcher
