  1. I have ran the Gaunt with Treacherous Bond but it seems wasted most of the time. Putting Bolt on him gives so much hero sniping power. He does get killed sometimes but he is so far back that he is usually safe. Just keep him screened with Pinks first turn then with blues to get the arcane Sacrafice off and you should be fine. I also would like to try the Chaos Sorceror Lord on Manticore. Looks like a great way to mix it up.
  2. I run a similar list and have had pretty good results. I play the list in a local league and have also been in a couple tournaments with it. I recently won a small one day tournament and went 4-1 in a larger 2 day tournament. For mine I run 20 Tzaangors, 10 Pinks and 10 Kairic Acolytes or 5 Chaos Warriors for battle line. I also only run 3 skyfires or run none with a Blue Scribe. Sometimes in my league I'll run a Mutalith Vortex Beast for the fun of it instead of the Skyfires. I don't run any battalions. For endless spells I alway bring the Balewind Vortex. I like to bring the Umbrel spell portal and pendulum too but swap these around with other endless spells sometimes. I can run the pendulum through the Pinks to get more blue points and control portions of the board. I really like the block of 20 Tzaangors as they can hold an area of the board very well. Find some 1 Wound targets for the shaman to bring some Tzaangors back each turn. I prefer Bolt of Tzeentch on the Gaunt Summoner to snipe heroes from 33" away. That in combination with the LoC with a Spell portal can really dish out mortal wounds from a distance. The mortal wounds win the game for me and the Enlightened clean up anyone getting close to the casters. I feel the weakness is against alpha strike or teleport armies as we don't start with too many bodies on the board. Between Arcane Sacrafice, the pendulum and spell casting I can usually summon 20 blues by turn 2 but turn 1 can be tough to defend a hard hit. I have only been playing for 7 months but I really enjoy the versatility of the mixed Tzeentch list so far.
  3. Thanks for posting the battle report. I enjoyed reading it. I agree that the chariot is not worth it for the points. I really like having Tzaangors to sit on an objective and hold it. I also run a mixed army and my battle line is usually 1 unit of 10 Pink Horrors, 1 unit of 20 Tzaangors, and 1 unit of either 10 Kairic Acolytes oe 10 Chaos Warriors but I have been using Acolytes more often lately. We have a lot of things to keep track of so don't feel bad. I am also guilty of forgetting to summon sometimes. I made a flow chart to use during my turn and in big bold letters I put Summon at the end of the movement phase. I just put together a Vortex Beast I plan to paint it this weekend and am excited to try him out in the league I am in. He might not be the most competitive but I love the model.
  4. What do you run in your magic heavy list? I am kinda new at this, have played less than 10 games and am in my first tournament next weekend. Right now I am running a LoC, Gaunt Summoner, Tzaangor Shaman and am trying to decide on the Blue Scribes, an Ogroid, or Curseling for the 4th wizard. I'll have a unit of 20 Tzaangors, 10 Pinks, 10 Kairic Acolytes and 6 Enlightened on Disk. The rest will probably be endless spells.
  5. I took Tzeentch because of it being THE magic army too. I would only like to live up to that. I think we lack behind other wizards per point costs just a little bit. What are you liking right now for a magic heavy list?
  6. It never crossed my mind until now but I hope you are right. I would buy that immediately. Both armies need updates badly.
