1200 point Khorne, for arc? Options

[Roasted]

Thinking of heading to ARC this year, all other factors permitting ofcourse.

For a while i toyed with the idea of doing an army devoted to the blood god and i figured ARC is probably the best motivation i will get.

Please feel free to post critisism both constructive and otherwise, so without further delay here it is.

I think that your list is very soft. Very little anti-tank, hardly any power weaps, little mobility. I think for this list to be effective you would need to address those key areas.
Good luck,

Thanks for the feedback ashen, ill have a look at what i can jiggle round to address those things

First, your Defiler needs some protection or it will die - remember that it's as tough as a Dreadnought (ie, not very) and about as big as a Land Raider. Either get some more armour in your army or drop it entirely, IMHO.

Second, Raptors are cool but are a huge point sink. I've found it hard to justify using Khorne Raptors since they're so expensive for what they do. However, in the games that they've done well I've been very happy with them, so YMMV.

I'd consider dropping the Defiler and a Raptor and picking up some combi-melta Terminators. Four with the Icon of Khorne only sets you back 170pts, which slots in perfectly. They DS in from one of your Icons and can smoke a tank pretty easily, and in following turns be able to dish out a fair chunk of power weapon attacks.

Just an idea, anyway.

ill give it a go

you only have 3 scoring units there, 2 zerker squads and daemons

[Cheexsta]

Buh? He has three Berzerker squads, plus the Daemons.

[Drasnighta]

Nope...

1 x Unit of 11 Berserkers
1 x Unit of 9 Berserkers
1 x Unit of Lesser Daemons

= 3 Scoring Units.

Kharn, Khornate Raptors and the Defiler do not count...

The list has been Updated, the list of Scoring Units did not...

[Cheexsta]

Sorry, I was looking at the OP rather than the amended lest. Carry on.
