Every now and again, I make and play a list that I know won't be very good. This is one of those times.
My FLGS is starting a grid-mapped escalation league of sorts in which I plan to play Daemons. Wanting to try the new flying MC rules, I've developed the following for the first game, which starts at 1000 pts.
1x Great Unclean One (Instrument, Cloud)
3x Flamers of Tzeentch
3x Flamers of Tzeentch
1x Daemon Prince (Mark of Nurgle, Daemonic Flight, Instrument, Cloud)
1x Daemon Prince (Mark of Nurgle, Daemonic Flight, Instrument, Cloud)
1x Daemon Prince (Mark of Nurgle, Daemonic Flight, Instrument, Cloud)
5x Plaguebearers
5x Plaguebearers
I don't expect to win with this - ever - as any halfway decent player will shoot my troops down almost immediately. My best case scenario is keeping them behind cover or out of harm's way until the end of the game. If they're not in cover, that 5+ invuln save isn't going to help things out too much.
Yeeeeeah. I'm sitting here reading this shaking my head. If I were to make this more of a Serious Business (TM) list, I'd drop a Prince and add another troop squad or two, but... fuck it. Fuck it!
