    GKoTG - bite mount trait, monstrous spell

    Regent - spectral host

    GK - deranged transformation 

    2 x flayer courtiers

    deadwatch 6, 6, 3 flayers

    Chalice

    Why not exchange the GK and one of the courtiers to an Archregent that calls in a Varghulf?
    Obviously, you'de lose the +1 attack spell, but gain so much more (most importantly, spare points, which this list doesn't have many of).

    I'd assumed in BJs list that maybe he didn't have a second AR so soon after release.

    I imagine you really want the Savage Strike benefit to be on the GKoTG though. At that point it's also a debate between "do I wanna summon in 3 Flayers\Horrors or 1 Varghulf?".

    I think combatwise, the GKoTG is potentially so much better than the ZD, I'd definitely go for the TG.

    Wondering if giving 30 blades +1 to hit would mathhammer out better than 15 blades +1 attack

    If those 30 had 2 attacks, it comes out the same.

    If you had buffed them to 3 attacks, the 30 would come out ahead.

    But max unit size is 20, so I'm not sure what you're thinking about?

  4. See, if you would have put a quarter of the energy you just spent arguing with me into your intital post, this would have never happened.
    But really, this is the last I will say about this. It isn't really worth it, you know?

    Please mind that I don't have this person's background infront of me,

    There is always the possibility to ask, or to elaborate.
    Just firing off one-word answers to a new member is just not very welcoming. Surely you must be able to see that?

    Magnetise!

    Telling somebody who starts with the hobby to magnetize Horrors/Flayers seems a bit ... inappropriate.
    But maybe that's just me.

    In this case, the Flayer seems better?

    Yes, in small groups Flayers are better. Also, when summoning them in from the sides/back, the can get to stuff faster than Horrors can.

    It went 5-0, but it's pretty easy to imagine that most of his opponents were unsure on how to handle FEC at this early stage.  

    Plus, it was played by Ben Johnson, who's been around like forever and a real veteran.  I think it's strong list, but I'm not sure it's the strongest list FEC can deliver. Time will tell.

    at the 1000 point level

    Most people claim 1000 points is not balanced period.

    Anything that summons (or re-summons) gets vastly more powerful at that level. Anything that has big beasties is also a lot more powerful than in 2000 points.

    Legions of nagash gets a lot of hate

    Don't think Legions of Nagash get any hate, it's just Nagash himself that isn't well liked. The book is certainly strong, but no S-tier without Nagash. And a lot of people just feel fatigued playing against the same list over and over again (very little variation in Nagash tournament lists) and the battle just being about that one model.

    Kill Nagash early enough, you win. Don't kill him, you most likely lose. Some people just think that there's more exciting battles to be had ...

    I was wondering the viability of a dryad horde list

    Very viable. Add the casters (branchwhyches & brachwraiths, which are basically also almost dryads) and Durthu plus Alarielle (which would be awesome riding some Merwyrm, coming from the sea), and you have more or less a cookie-cutter tournament list.

    Beware of the fact though, that there are rumours that a new battletome might be coming soon. And then, nobody knows what's viable and what isn't.

    Can I use a plague priest on plague furnace for a foulrain congregation battalion? 

    No, it has to be a Plague Priest on foot.

    As a rule, if something is written in Caps Lock, it's a keyword and then it can be anything with that keyword. If it is written normally, it has to be that exact warscroll.
