[AoS 2 - Disciples of Tzeentch Discussion]

By the way, has anyone thought of running marauders in Tzeentch as Arcane Sacrifice fodder? Quite a bit cheaper than acolytes but less range power.

 

I believe that unfortunately you can no longer take GA artifacts when you use a "proper" (ie traits, artifacts, etc) allegiance. At least thats what I've heard.

 

(so another example is if you used the Brayheard allegiance, you can't use the Chaos GA items, but if you used the Warherd allegiance which has no traits, you can use the GA items).

so going Ghur with Rageblade is actualy pretty good then? as it has the same effect (+1 attack on one melee weapon)?

My question still remains if the lists I concocted are terrible, decent or even good? and which one should I aim for? I kinda like both.

(Magister would get another artifact as you can only get one realm specific artifact as far as I read)

I appreciate the help so far:).

I'm thinking of starting my first army as Tzeentch.

With a bit of reading up and a lot of thinking about it I came up with two potential lists. I'm just wondering how good/terrible these would be and which of the two would you guys advice me to aim for? Or would both suck so bad that I shouldn't aim for them?

Both are based on Tzaangor Shaman + Alter-kin Coven creating more Tzaangor and using an Ogroid Thaumaturge with Infusion Arcanum, a Chaos Runeblade, and casting Arcane Transformation on him.

Planning on painting them as raven like Tzaangor and Beastman like Ogroid/Magister. Hence the Ghur artifact.

Would appreciate any advice. (If I'm posting this in the wrong forum please advice me where to go)
