Yup, that looks like a fun list, I would add 5 more blood warriors to that unit, but that's because I have a hard on for Blood warriors and the glaive they can bring. xD

 

My 1k pts list would be something like:

Daemon prince, general - Immense power, Crimson Crown

Bloodsecrator

Slaughterpriest - Killing Frenzy

10 Blood warriors

20 bloodletters

10 Flesh hounds


Edit: decied to spice up my Daemon Prince a bit. I want to change his wings too I think. And I couldn't find a better head but it'll do. And I need like a double axe to finish of the whip... And maybe a new base too. 

Spoiler

I like it, looks like a lot of fun. Your point 1 trumps all other concerns ?

Thanks. Yeah most opponents underestimate (rightly so) the warhounds until they cover 16" in one go.

@Mikeymajq love the Daemon Prince WIP! Looking forward how it will end up looking. Skull set obviously leads to the coolest Khorne bases :D 

Cheers,

Thanks! I really quite enjoy fielding DP's since BoK. An artefact or command trait on them makes them a lot more useful than before. :)

If you have that many ready and painted then you deserve to win ?

The second list is so left field! It does appear light on anti magic, bar the ward, which could hurt you. Getting a priest in for unbind or blood secrator may be worth considering. But all those ward saves may compensate and the reavers will sent summoning

2000 points, the big guy is going to be summoned when 8 units die to ensure he gets right into the mix of it all.  If done correctly a priest can force a unit to run right at the big guy the turn he appears.  Use his whip to get them closer and charge away.

This obviously isn't super competitive, but I bet it will be fun.

I would reccomend taking bloodreavers/marauders to limit deepstriking, out flanking , and tunneling. A few slaughterpriests can deal with resilient stormcast units, magmadroths, and potentially kill support heros. I would try to engage berserker blobs with spread out units to make piling in awkward and limit the numbers in combat.

Seeking Advice:

Will be having a 2k game this weekend. My opponent will be SCE and will bring 12 Raptors with Longstrike...24"(can be extend to 30") 2+/3+ -2 rend Dmg 2. Retributors will be in also.

I will be having WOK BT (crimson crown) as general with 2 units of 30 bloodletters.

Should I use Gore Pilgrims (with the necessary units of cos) alone or with Muderhost? I have a feeling they will rush to kill my Bloodsecrator first also.

2 battalions cost 300 points. But this long range is quite damaging in fact. Any advice?

Can you outdrop it? If not consider thaking two Bloodsecrators and two Bloodstokers to manifest a solid awnser/speed up.

New shadespire warbamd may be fun. 3 warriors and flesh hound means an 8+ attack, 7+ wound unbind unit running about. May also have some fun abilities. I look forward to the scroll. Given 5 blood warriors are 100 pts I think we may be looking at the same cost.

the important question here is : is he playing an aetherstrike force ?

Dun think so. Never heard him talking about painting the birds. 

then don't worry too much. Just take as much body as you can. Vanguard raptors, for 180 pts, will NEVER do more than 6 wound, even with perfect dice roll. So, yeah, they can kill a hero... or 6 bloodreavers. Or 3 bloodwarriors.

Give him too many foes and units to focus and he will be overwhelmed. And focus on the objectives. Unlike the Judicators, who can take a beating, vanguard raptors are very fragile and can't go to an objective. So play the objective game and take as many people as you can.

I don't think a gore pilgrim is a very good idea. It's a bataillion that focus a lot of fragile heroes that he WON'T let live more than one turn. I think it's better to spread out the point in ton of bodies.

^^^^^ Good advice ^^^^^^

I think Murderhost for the speed is the way to go here. A couple of Bloodstokers to go even faster. I would still take a priest or 2 to buff your bloodletters for the first turn charge. After that he may be too focused on whats immediately in front of him to character snipe. If you have them Chaos Knights would be good as well for the speed and mortal wound protection.

Now that looks like a horde... like an army. 

Many of those lists looks more like warbands but this.... oh i want to see it.

Bring the slaughter!

Thanks Praecautus. I like the look of this :D

Also, I wondered if I could please request some feedback on 2K Khorne List:

Option A:
Murderhost
WoK Bloodthirster
2X 30 Bloodletters
2X 5 Flesh Hounds

Gore Pilgrims
Bloodsecrator
2X Slaughterpriest with Hackblade
5 Blood Warriors
30 Bloodreavers

For exactly 2000pts, 2 drops

Option B:
WoK Bloodthirster
2X 30 Bloodletters

Gore Pilgrims
Bloodsecrator
2X Slaughterpriest with Hackblade
10 Blood Warriors
40 Bloodreavers

2X Bloodstoker for 1970pts, 4 drops

 

I prefer the 2 drop Option A but I guess the dual Bloodstokers and bigger Bloodreaver horde could be good - also that Bloodstokers are also decent in combat. My main query is how effective are Flesh Hounds vs the trade off for Bloodstokers?
