For the daemon list you’ll want 3x5 flesh hounds for battleline (You can swap this out for gore pilgrims to get your drops down as mentioned above) They get reroll 1s to hit from the bloodthirsters and you’ll have 3-4 of those providing that buff so it’s worthwhile. They also make good units to summon because of the reroll charge on the warscroll, so you have a good chance of getting them into combat on the same turn.

 Get 3 bloodthirster kits plus Skarbrand and make one of each, they’re all viable apart from the exalted greater daemon of khorne. Tyrants of blood is the go to daemon battalion. Take 3-4 bloodthirsters  at 2k points. 

 

It’s worth noting that you can modify the attack characteristic of Skarbrands Carnage axe to 3. If you buff him with wrathmongers and a bloodsecrator then double attack with “Leave none alive” from the Reapers of Vengeance Slaughterhost, you’ll pump out more damage then anything else in AoS

 

When you combine tyrants of blood with reapers of vengance you can chain all 4 bloodthirster attacks back to back then double attack with the last one.

Also consider Archaon for daemon lists. He can double attack with Reapers of Vengeance. He is also a mortal so you can reroll wounds with a bloodstoker. Plenty of options for variation there.

I’ll be here all day at this rate so I’ll leave it at that for now. Any questions about daemons I’m happy to help. 

 

thanks for your eager response I was just more looking for the summoning tithe m,odels I need if I choose to build normal human khorne lists. I just prefer the human berserker flavours! + I would be able to practice flesh painting

I only play mortals so can’t really comment on thirster builds. In terms of mortals the best battalions avoid having units close to a squishy hero or putting too many leaders you don’t want into your list. So ones like gorepilgrims, dark feast and slaughterborn are my favourites.

gorepilgrim is great, good buff as well as battleline and 3 or 4 heros you will want to take in 1 drop.

dark feast is cheap and brings in your battleline and a priest. It synergises well with expensive low count builds eg thirster builds 

slaughterborn is good fun especially if you like skullreapers. It makes them harder to kill. The exalted deathbringer can become a powerhouse if built right. The big spear one can get over 10 attacks w his MW spear.

if playing mortals you will need 1 thirster maximum for summoning. He is not worth being in the list on his own in a mortal list. too squishy and expensive plus bring a nothing to a mortal army

may I ask you what is your current competitive list?

A good start for a mortal list is a gorepilgrims build using the goretribe slaughterhost. It’s quite forgiving and relatively easy to get the pieces.

You seem really knowledgeable, wanted to ask which battalions would you recommend?  or what is the meta and what is their composition? How many bloodthirsters should I have in the army and in the summoning tithe pool?
