Think the last sentence in the mortal wounds sorts it out. He is ok but dosent justify his inclusion over other units for me. But it is now an option that nighthaunt have.
-
Nighthaunt have the capacity to win against most armies especially in the scenarios. The battleline options are great and now with the emerald host you can keep your dreadblade alive for the hero missions . They are definately more competitive than people make them out to be which can catch people out.
-
Yes the deathriders and emerald host works so well together if i was going to an event tomorrow which allowed it something like below would be my first choice Allegiance: Nighthaunt - Procession: Emerald HostLeadersDreadblade Harrow (90)- General- Command Trait: Lord of the Host- Artefact: Pendant of the Fell WindGuardian of Souls with Nightmare Lantern (130)- Lore of the Underworlds: Shademist- Infernal Lantern (Artefact): Beacon of NagashizzarReikenor the Grimhailer (160)- Lore of the Underworlds: ShademistKnight of Shrouds (100)- Artefact: The Traitor Knight's BladeBattleline15 x Hexwraiths (390)10 x Hexwraiths (260)20 x Chainrasp Horde (160)20 x Chainrasp Horde (160)BehemothsBlack Coach (220)BattalionsDeathriders (130)Chainguard (120)Endless Spells / Terrain / CPsChronomantic Cogs (80)Total: 2000 / 2000Extra Command Points: 2Allies: 0 / 400Wounds: 124

Metawatch articles are concerning the current meta.

The list revolves around the big hexwraiths units taking on what ever needs to be hit hard. Olyander with her defensive shrugg can now chuck herself into the middle of any battlefield so she can maximise her mortal wound damage. The smaller units are just great at harassing small characters and units which become separated from the main army. They are also cheap objectives scorers so you don't need to commit your army turn 1 unless you want to. Unfortunately you will have to wait and see about AoS 3, hopefully not too long to wait.

I used 20 in the last tournament I went to before covid, they were a solid unit then and have improved with the new scroll
-
No not harsh but its always best to talk through errors
-
Unfortunately it was just an editing mistake as trying to create the list in warscroll builder before it was updated with new points and battalions. The list is 8 banshees and 4 banshees and a knight of shroud on foot instead of on steed. I was on autopilot with the unit of 12 banshees and command trait so sorry about that
-
I don't think we even need summoning that much. The last tourney I was in I only summoned 10 daemonettes and an infernal enraptureness in all of the 5 games. Too much damage was dealt on the first 3 turns whilst being in scoring positions that is was already over. If I had a got a double turn once it would of been even more painful. I seriously inestimated how much damage fiends can do with +1 attack
-
Different feelings on this I believe we are a top tier army already. We have enough tools in the box to play any lists we come across. Our only real weakness is lack of decent casters but with slaves there are still decent options there even for that
-
Cheers for putting this up about me rambling about my list, hope it gives some of you guys ideas.
-
Have to be careful with the exalted here as he uses his command ability in the combat phase
-
Weirdly enough I think daemonettes are better than witch elves especially in their new format. I rate them as one of the best battleline units due to the sheer damage out put they can put out.
-
Charging seekers around in lines to make people pile in ways they don't want to is very useful. Also piling around an exalted to protect it from being charged is also possible. Seekers aren't a brilliant combat threat but decent enough. It's their manoevability to make people react to them which is a huge plus. As you noticed they are also good chaff which protects nearly the whole army if needed against alpha strike list.

So masters this weekend and this is the list I will be taking. exalted with dimensional blade and invigorated by pain Herald on exalted seeker chariot chaos Sorceror Lord on manticore chaos Sorceror lord 2x 30 daemonettes 2x 5 helstriders 10 seekers for 1940 pts. i have been experimenting with a unit of 6 fiends and the masque which replaced the seekers and the chariot but the list just didn’t feel balanced enough and losing the command point was tough to take. Don’t get me wrong 6 fiends are a really good unit but they just don’t quite fit into the list in a way I like. Plus I’ve played 100+ games with this list and haven’t changed it in AoS 2. Also payed at the painting masters and managed to go 4-1 there which was a good warm up and a cracking event which is something to aim for next year as well. so let’s see just had good the slaanesh are in an ultra competitive environment.
-
It's is possible but most of the time all my depravity is being generated by the big girl herself. That said 42 pts is normally best used on other things like more daemonettes as they help you win the scenario better. Also remember That the keeper won't have an artefact or command trait when you summon her and that reduces her effectiveness quite a bit. Your list does sound interesting would like to see how the chaos warriors get on
-
I haven't as I've always ran seekers it suits me the best. The battalion is very short range and quite defensive so don't rate it too highly
-
Ran them in a unit of 6 which were really good they take down the fighting eels so quickly even after the mortal wounds done to them
-
Fiends are very good but the -1 rend is an issue as they are very swingy against tough targets but have the potential to be amazing. I've been impressed with the enraptureness but I think 120 is too much. As a summoning piece though she is really good if you don't need the numbers for more daemonettes. I think daemonettes are the best attacking battline in the game near just so consistent even against-1 to hit
-
Looking at it his list is nowhere near as good as yours from a competitive view. Also he seems to of played it wrong as he should be letting you go first as he can't attack you at all in his first turn. The one way to take your lost down easily is to take out the exalted, some armies can't deal with it and that khorne list will certainly struggle.
-
Mortal wounds on the charge against horde units is useful and another high wound hero Both sorceror have good natural spells plus whatever realm they are in. Also 2 or 3 scenarios require wizards to score or are worth 20 models. Played over 100 games with it so tested against a lot of people and armies best look at my Twitter for exact ones as I generally post a photo of the armies pre game
-
Hi there for 2000 pts this is what I have been running. exalted keeper dimensional blade and invigorated by pain chaos Sorceror Lord on manticore chaos sorceror lord herald on exalted chariot 2x 30 daemonettes 2x 5 helstriders 10 x seekers in the seeker hosts comes to 1940. I like it everything has got a place and a role and you summon what you need to fill the gaps. It doesn’t contain any of the new models though which are both good for their costs, fiends especially .
-
I like the first list there as it covers a lot of ground quickly, the one change I would suggest is drop the enraptureness for 2x heralds so you have 3 characters to summon off and maybe one on a steed to keep up with the cavalry. Also I believe the keeper is only 260pts now.
-
Thanks too many lists to list at the moment. That's weird that deployment settled it we are normally quick off the blocks so very forgiven in deployment unless there is an alpha strike
-
Well the Slaanesh are now going to the uk masters I have an invite which has been accepted, so the trial period of lists begins the deadline for lists is the 9th.
