Malakithe Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I need help with a 'competitive' Slaves list. It's looking like the Khorne keyword is the best option so with that I was thinking of doing a Dark Feast with supporting Khorne stuff and Slaves. Or something... Is Skaarac viable? It's an awesome model and looks good on paper...how would a list include him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkiham Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Tzeentch is strong for a slaves to darkness only list , -1 rend army wide soon stacks up. Unit of 18 halberd warriors all able to attack (I think ) and using the fatesworn battalion they can gain a 6+ward save when in multiples of 9. Chaos knights are a lot better as you always have rend, and using the ensorcselled weapons really ups their damage, including the horses. Chariots gain a significant boost from it from all their melee weapons, really helps on gorebeast. If you dip into arcanities the Lord on disk is great, Tzeentch is also under represented, so people won't expect it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malakithe Posted October 20, 2016 Author Share Posted October 20, 2016 I'm not familiar with that battalion. Can you show a pic of it? How does that multiples thing work? Do you immediately lose the bonuses if any models die? If so that wouldn't be to useful I would think. I was looking at Tzeentch too cuz that have a lot of good magic as well. And the Warshrine would allow for save rerolls too for more durability in warriors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkiham Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 It's all explained on it. It's units when you deploy that are multiples of 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malakithe Posted October 20, 2016 Author Share Posted October 20, 2016 Hmm 9. That's for the 6+ save? What units would be good at 9 or 18 without costing too much or being too small lol Is there a Khorne version of that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkiham Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Chaos warriors, can deploy in units of 9, 18, 27 chaos marauders, again same. Chaos knights maybe as a unit of 9. The khorne version is also good, gives bonus attacks to units when heroes kill something, pick the pack up from the app the battalions are probably the best ones chaos has access to. I'll make a quick tzeentch list in a bit an share it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkiham Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Unit name Minumum Models in unit Cost Number of units Unit cost Models Total 2000 Fatesworn Warband 120 0 1880 Tzeentch lord on daemonic mount 1 140 1 140 1 1740 Tzeentch Sorcerer lord 1 120 1 120 1 1620 Tzeentch Warriors Halberds 10 180 3 540 30 1080 Tzeentch Chosen 5 160 1 160 5 920 Tzeentch Chariots 1 80 1 80 1 840 Tzeentch lord on daemonic mount 1 140 1 140 1 700 Tzeentch Knights 5 200 1 200 5 500 Tzeentch Knights 5 200 1 200 5 300 Tzeentch Chariots 1 80 1 80 1 220 Tzeentch Gorebeast chariots 2 100 2 200 4 20 It's probably not the best of lists but its fairly decent. The battleline of chaos warriors (27) and two units of knights ( 5 ) most things have a 5+ against mortal wounds, the chaos warrior block can fight 9 wide, 3 deep, and probably get all its attacks in, with 2 attacks, 4+4+-1 1 damage hopefully thats like 54 attacks. saves a 4+ reroll 1 then a 6+. or against mortal wounds a 5+ 6+ so throw that in the middle of a large open area. the daemonic power from the chaos sorcerer would massively help. the general allows a mounted unit to re-roll their charges and have +1 to hit when they charge. so throw that on the Gorebeasts and hope for a long charge for a brutal charge. protect the chosen or use them as bait as people really dislike them and run the chariots up for early objective capture or charge block, farily large models, cheap cost, fast movement, good to hold up a killy unit for a turn, the knights are killy and tanky so, these are the units you want to use to do stuff with really. run the sorc near them for his passive ability or potentially spell. for items if against order id run dual chaos talisman on the lords on daemonic mount. giving you a 5+ against both mortal wounds and wounds on both. and command trait will depend on the army you go against, or what you roll. terrifying presence might be good if you plan on running him into combat with the chaos knights as that will stack for a -2 bravery ( which could really help against some armies ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malakithe Posted October 20, 2016 Author Share Posted October 20, 2016 So the only multiple of 9 is the block of Warriors for the save? Still everyone will be tanky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malakithe Posted October 20, 2016 Author Share Posted October 20, 2016 What I don't understand is isn't nurgle supposed to be the slow tanky one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkiham Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 tzeentch can do it also, and this formation adds more damage to the slaves to darkness. its basically, slaves to darkness plus damage and tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malakithe Posted October 20, 2016 Author Share Posted October 20, 2016 It does look pretty good. Having rend on everything is helpful too. The slaanesh one looks meh. Haven't seen the nurgle or Khorne ones thou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iradekhorne Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Nah slaanesh isnt meh, with warshrine to def a bit, the speed of his units and exalted chariots of slanesh doing at4+ dice 1d3 mortal wound FOR MODEL in base, and the traits of the Lord of slaaneshon daemonic mount, giving to some chaos warrior atack twice and inmune to bravery test, or the keeper of secrets can do the same, giving to daemonettes the chance of atack twice.... I think they are much more strong then tzeentch for example, more agresive, less survability but much more mobility. Some units can also run and charge (with movement 10-14) thats pretty fast to kill or hit the weaker units Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tasman Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Truth. Add Archaon the lesser and you have a big chance of bringing back your demonettes. Lots of crazy synergy here with lots of crazy builds. Speedy and lethal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malakithe Posted October 22, 2016 Author Share Posted October 22, 2016 Can anyone link the slaanesh battalion? Would any of the mono-StD battalions work with a keyword? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkiham Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 I've got a mounted list, using the ruinbringer warband and the brass stampede one, works well. everything marked khorne, not many attacks though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malakithe Posted October 23, 2016 Author Share Posted October 23, 2016 Heavy hitting shock troops I bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
