walpurgisnacht Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Are you looking to be competitive as in tournament scene or looking for a few pick up games? If just for fun, play the models you have and make a great story about your warband. If you want a tournament army, follow the Jeske posts.

cescobig Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 Hi, yeah i wont be playing tournaments or anything serious, just fun games, but do still want my army to have a lil bit of threatening side, i was thinking of having all my guys on the ground and use the helldrake to distract so they might gain some ground Also would it be viable to run a hq riding a helldrake as a demonic steed Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289385-world-eaters-army-advice/#findComment-3650205 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenebris Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Well one thing should be a given, a Juggernought Lord with the Axe of Blind Fury, it is he who makes the Khorne armies so fun. With your models you can actually build some decent lists but I would suggest you to invest in a Helldrake and some Obliterators. You would really need to have a Fast Attack and a Heavy Support option in your army. Said that you can also make some hard hitting Khorne terminators since you have a lot of them provided that you give them a transportation in the form of a Land Raider, a nasty terminator lord can go here too. As for the troops well cultists are always useful to hold the objectives and since it seems that you have the DV set you can actually make a Helcult formation which will remove the need to babysit your cultists with some Fearless characters. As for the Chosen, load them with Plasma Guns and park them in a Rhino and they should work. The Berzerkers on the other side require some micromanagement when on foot thus you should either have more of them in bigger squads or provide them with a Rhino. All in all what you need is some transports and your army should work. So to recap: - Axe of Blind Fury on the Lord - Land Raider for your terminators (allows them to assault when they deploy) - Rhinos or numbers for your Berzerkers - Obliterators for some ranged support (mandatory in the 6th edition) that, or Maulerfiends - Heldrake - 2x Cultists and a Helbrute to make them Fearless thus useful to hold the objectives while the rest of your army advances. I think that would sum it up. But I believe that there are more expert Khornate lords here on B&C than me, they will tell you more.

cescobig Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 Thanks tenebris i was thinking along those lines of adding some heavy and fast support to it, still got plenty of options tho, i dont wanna build the points up too high yet since i wont be using em all for a while, since i still have a few newb 500 pt games etc to play but can atleast start planning it out properly.

Trevak Dal Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 What's your views on Daemon Engines? You don't have any now, but they can be pretty useful. Maulerfiends can move fast and taken in pairs ganging up on a hapless unit can really punk said unit. Bikers are favored, but Raptors can burn in and dump melta or plasma or flamer templates on stuff. Don't forget to 'shoot' grenades, either frag (s3 ap- small blast) or krak (s6 ap4). It's an 8 inch 'shot' and can come in handy and can be better than a standard bolt pistol.

cescobig Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 Thanks trevak will keep that in mind, Im thinking eventually. A LR for termies 2 mauler/forgefiends helldrake and a squad of bikes n it should be a sturdy list Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289385-world-eaters-army-advice/#findComment-3650643 Share on other sites More sharing options...
