Skoby Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Hi, I'm looking into starting a new 40k army and I think Tzeentch daemons with 1k son allies (with daemon engines) really appeals to me. I am also considering using the daemons for small fantasy games. What I'm planning so far looks like: Lord of Change tzeentch Herald 2x pink horror squads Small screamers squad Soul Grinder Flying daemon prince And CSM Sorcerer 2x 1k sons squads Helldrake Mauler/forgefiend This looks to be about 2k points depending on upgrades and squad sizes. These are all models I love but most of these I've never faced and only read a friend's copy of the codexes. Does anyone have any advise on unit sizes and upgrades for the above units? Is there anything this list will really struggle with? Melee and tanks look a little tough for tzeentch. Finally, how many extra boxes do you recommend for malefic summoning?

Excessus Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Sorry, it's a lovely idea but 1K Sons won't become troops in an allied detachment, just a primary detachment... :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/296924-tzeentch-daemons-with-csm-allies/#findComment-3813165 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuggnuggath Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 You could use some cultists as the troop element of the CSM allies and a squad of Thousand Sons as an elite body guard for the Sorcerer HQ.

Skoby Posted September 19, 2014 Author Share Posted September 19, 2014 Ah damn, not sure how I missed that! I could use cultists as troops, or I suppose I could have CSM as the primary with daemons as the allies, but would have to drop the herald.
