Maddok Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 I'm looking to get some feedback on the latest iteration of my khorne based alliance list. I started basing around a monster mash style, but am moving a bit away to bring in more turn 1 alpha strike capabilities. Do you think it's turn 1 alpha strike is enough to deter opponents from giving me first turn? How could I work some inexpensive shooting into the list that may give it more flexibility? I have skaven, tzeentch, khorne, and even legion of azgor that I can bring. Wrath of Khorne Blood Thirster 360 General Lord of war Blood Thirster of insensate rage 280 Rune blade (axe) Blood Secrator 120 Sayl the Faithless 160 Skaven Plague Priest 80 30 blood letters 300 10 Blood warriors 200 10 Blood warriors 200 Soul Grinder 280 Turn 1: Sayl puts traitors mist on the Blood letters, lord of war trait is put on them, as is the WoK's command ability. They leave a chain long enough to catch the blood secrator's banner to double their attacks. Blood warriors run onto objectives and hold them as thorny/tough objective holders. Later in the game, the plague priest adds +1 to wound against a specific enemy unit, Insensate rage thirster charges it with 6 attacks in an attempt to do bubble mortal wounds. The grinder provides fire support/ attacks standard units. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Immersturm Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Why the Grinder? Something like Warp Lightning Cannons seems more consistent to be fair. You have a lot of melee as it is. If you manage to clear up another 80pts, then you can have 2 Cannons. Ontop of the potential mortal wounds from letters and the Thirsters, you should be good to go.

fiZZycoke Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Agree with above poster, I'd drop 10 BW for 20 reavers, drop the soul grinder for 2 x WLC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddok Posted December 20, 2016 Author Share Posted December 20, 2016 It's tempting for sure. What I worry about there is how I lose a durable unit for holding objectives. I also have an elaborately converted soul grinder and it synergies really well the the banner (+3 attacks). That said the 2 wlc are probably better. Just not sure if that's the case at the expense of blood warriors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Immersturm Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Why not take a second Thirster for 280pts. That frees up another 80pts and all you lose is the +1 charge from it. Or drop the rat hero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
