Hag queen>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>CP, at least 1 is mandatory in basically every DoK build. I also wouldn't run the Slaughter cauldron when it's not the general, the Hag cauldron is far more useful if you're not getting the CA.
Thanks for pointing out the slaughter queen CA. Didn’t see it was general only. Guess that makes it tough if you want the snakes battleline.

How would the following be competitive wise for a more full snakes list?
Allegiance: Daughters Of Khaine
- Temple: Hagg Nar
Leaders
Bloodwrack Medusa (140)
- General
- Trait: Devoted Desciples
- Lore of Shadows: Steed of Shadows
Morathi High Oracle of Khaine (480)
- Lore of Shadows: Mindrazor
Slaughter Queen on Cauldron Of Blood (330)
- Artefact: Thousand and One Dark Blessings
- Prayer: Blessing of Khaine
Battleline
30 x Witch Aelves (270)
- Pairs of Sacrificial Knives
10 x Blood Sisters (280)
10 x Blood Sisters (280)
Units
5 x Khinerai Heartrenders (80)
5 x Khinerai Heartrenders (80)
Total: 1940 / 2000
Extra Command Points: 1
Allies: 0 / 400
Wounds: 105

I know large blocks of witch aelves are a competitive build, but how competitive is a more snake heavy list with morathi? Are any battalions worthwhile to try and get the daughters to be a one drop in tournaments?

Finally finished assembling my 2k of nurgle, still need to pick up another 10 plaguebearers for summoning. After assembling 25 blightkings, I don't want to every have to assemble another again...

Gor are straight battleline not just brayherd/beast of chaos battleline so they fill that quota too. It's essentially Beastmen w/Blood Tithe instead of herdstone summoning and a bit more aggressive bonuses.
Interesting... Might see how a Brass Despoilers and Council of blood would work out.

Has there been any confirmation that the brass despoilers can be fielded under blades of khorne? I'm hoping so because I would love to field a cygor or two with the mark of khorne to really stick it to some enemy wizards! If they have to be fielded as allies it doesn't look as tempting to go buy 2 start collecting boxes.
I’m pretty sure they can with that battalion. I don’t know if we can use them as our battle line though since I think they are beasts of chaos battle line, not khorne battleline.

Interesting that the Council/Bloodhunt list made it into the #1 spot. Congrats to David for the win, I wonder how the list functions on the tabletop. I know there are likely reasons for the artifact choices as well as the actual Thirster choice. From a rookie perspective i am wondering how the list functions given the objective based game we have.
I would be interested in any insight anyone could provide...
I don't know if NOVA allowed realm artifacts, if so one or two of the artifacts chosen could probably be improved by taking a realm one. For play, you get some out of movement phase movement, and I'd assume keep the thirsters within 8" of the one that gives a charge after run. 4 Free command abilities every turn is strong, with out of activation attacks too which could generate more killing models and units. If an enemy is bunched you could chain down a line pretty easily. I could see it falling apart if you lose a double turn and some thirsters getting focused, but its still a lot of wounds to chew through.

Think khorne came first at NOVA not second
Yes my bad. I didn’t switch the app to say overall, it was ordered by points so showed the nagash list first. List looks like a lot of fun to play though!
-
Looks like a 4 bloodthirster list placed 2nd at Nova.

I’ll take push fit over zero variety in the range and basically 90 of the same model
Sure, but that doesnt have anything to do with the cost of a box of push fit vs the cost of a box of non push fit.

Not saying it wouldn’t be nice if GW priced horde units more cheaply, but there are far worse offenders. The poor fyreslayers have to pay $60 for 10 models, and they need 120 of them in a 2k army #ouch.
At least we only need 1 or 2 black coaches, and if you really want to save a buck or two, a lot of FLGS are offering discounts now to compete with the online retailers that have been doing the same for a while now.
My 2k list (if it doesn’t change) is $550 after tax. Yes, that’s more than average, but it’s not that far from a “cheap” army. The real killer is how meta hordes are right now
True about fyreslayers, its actually why I told a friend not to start them unless they had the cash. Least the difference with them is they aren't push fit, that's my main gripe.

This is outrageous. I'm forced to get rid of and sell my soul wars box and quit nighthaunt. With GWs new pricing, it will cost far too much to complete the army I wanted. It is a sad, sad state of affairs when they are pricing a black coach at more than the cost of Nagash, the supreme lord of undead himself. A single 80 point unit of 10 push fit models for what they're asking makes running any kind of horde asinine. And then they have the nerve to put incomplete units in the soulwars box. I'm so sad to quit nighthaunt but I can't budget this with good conscience. GW was already expensive enough as it was, the fact that they're raising prices further is... disappointing to say the least.
I agree that the push fit pricing is crazy. Asked a buddy if he wants to split another souls wars box because it would be dumb not too for the cost of two chain rasp boxes. I really only need 20 more chain rasp to make one unit of 40, but there's no way I'd buy two push fit boxes for that price.

What do you think about the NH specific endless spells? are they worth it? When I see the SCE ones, with the overpowered Comet spell, it is a no brainer. But for NH....it feels like there are some alternatives in the normal Migic box...
I personally believe they are all junk, especially compared to what stormcast got. The charge up and explode one will never reach 20. The scythe is worse imo than pendelum because at least with pendelum you can ensure your own units won't be hit. The last one doesn't do much that regular endless spells can't do better.

Here you go. I prefer the strength of the 3/8" magnet for the raised arm, as that is the most easily bumped. The other 2 work fine with the 1/8" for now.
I just remembered I have a few nurglings to paint and put on this guy, so he's not 100% done, but I think Glottkin deserves my attention more right now.
Thanks for the magnet sizes! looks like I will have to pick up some more sizes

Just got my first magnetized GUO done. I think I woke him up.
Mind posting a pic or two of the magnet contact points? I want to magnetize mine as well once it comes in the mail.

Thanks for the write up. What artifact did you take? I agree with losing the lord of slaanesh, seems a bit too cute to do unless your main plan would be to be all in on Archaon.
-
Anyone use any allies of any kind? I think using
a tunneling stormfiend squad could be neat, ora different ranged chaos unit? -
Yea I found playing with the numbers to get an extra CP annoying too. I do like how endless spells can act as filler now though if you have 40 or less points remaining. Let us know how your games go!

And zero plaguetouched warbands I do believe
You are correct. Sad to see no Archaon lists for any chaos players.
-
I noticed for the upcoming Midwest meltdown tournament, out of 8 nurgle players, 5 or so are blight cysts, zero plague cyst players. It’s a large tournament so I’m curious to see how they do.

Unless they changed it, skaven are not mortal.
Dang right you are. Seems weird they aren't. O well.
-
Any idea if a verminlord and other skaven would work in the plaguetouched battalion on a competitive level?

Hi all,
did anyone out there ever run Thricefold Befoulment? I really love those Great Unclean Ones and I´m painting my first one right now while I´m assembling Rotigus. I have to get that third GUO just to run them all together.
But I´m not sure what I can do to bring that list to 2000 points.
A Bligfht Cyst Battallion can be used to bring it to 1980 points, but I´m pretty low on models then.
An other idea is to get a Lord of Afflictions +2x Pusgoyle Blightlords +Blightkings: even less models, but more speed.
Or should I simply run 2 big units of Plaguebearers and some Blightkings?
Someone at the recent team tournament this past weekend actually ran the thricefold battalion. I saw the list and was impressed they tried it. No idea how it did though.

Well after being a Chaos Marauder doubter, I'm fully converted after 1 game!!
Archaon 660
The Glottkin 420
Lord of Blights 140
Harbinger of Decay 160
40 Chaos Marauders 200
10 Chaos Warrios 180
5 Putrid Blightkings 160
Pallisade 30
Total 1950
Versus 2k of Nighthaunts, although it was his first game using the new army so he missed stuffed despite having unlimited take-backs.
The Marauders (Axes + Shield) buffed by the Command Abilities of the Lord of Blights, Harbinger, Glottkin plus Mystic Shield and Fleshy Abundance were off the scale mental!
+5 Armour save re-rolling 1's/+1 A/-2 -1 to hit/ +5 Disgusting Resilience/+1 W plus all the other marauder buffs.
They held up 4 of his units for 3 turns, amazing!
Looks almost identical to what I want to do, but two units of blightkings instead of the warriors. What spells and artifact did you take?
