Welcome!

 I started the True Daemon Lord about a year ago now as a way to document my hobby and my progress in the competitive tournament scene.

After taking a 6 month break from the hobby and getting straight back into events over the last few months, I've decided to really focus on my online presence and born is this blog through that.

I will be post many types of posts here, from reviews and talking tactics about Chaos (especially Daemons!) to reviewing recent events I've been too and the lists I'm currently playing.

So stay tuned as I progress on this journey!!

My list for 10th and how it's got on!

Image
So 10th is well and truly here, and while we may have all been quite Doom and gloom to start with, I think now the dust has settled we are all alot more calm. I have attended 3 events now and honestly feel very confident think Daemons as a faction have some real play into most factions barring those currently overturned exceptions. I've ran the same list for all 3 events and plan to run it for the time being even considering it for LGT in 5 weeks time. list (2000 points) Chaos Daemons Strike Force (2000 points) Daemonic Incursion CHARACTER Be’lakor (325 points) Warlord Bloodthirster (300 points) Lord of Change (255 points) With Rod of sorcery Lord of Change (230 points) With Rod of sorcery Shalaxi Helbane (400 points) The Changeling (75 points) BATTLELINE Nurglings (40 points) Nurglings (40 points) OTHER DATASHEETS Flamers (65 points) Flamers (65 points) Flamers (65 points) Flesh Hounds (70 points)   Flesh Hounds (70 points) So the idea is the chickens sit around Belly giving me a ...

God Focus: Khorne

Image
With the Dataslate now out in the world, I thought it was time to look into the units of each God and talk about their viability and best uses in game competitively. Today we are going to start with the Blood God and all his blood thirsty minions! Skarbrand : 9/10 Good old Skarbrand, he was great pre-dataslate, but now a 40pt drop makes him very interesting. His damage is great, the no fall back ability forcing to enemy units within engagement range of him to pass a leadership test or be stuck in combat, has great potential and then his synergy with non-monster/Vehicle Khorne units giving them +1 attack is amazing! Not to mention being able to get between damage 3-5 sweeps with rendmaster buffs is nuts! Bloodthirsters : 7.5/10 So truthfully, I'm not a huge Bloodthirster fan. Their huge base and wings span makes them quite hard to manoeuvre around the board, their random damage and no real source of re-rolls also means they are very capable of fluffing combats they should be winning...

Dataslate winners, what looks good after today!!

Image
So, we finally just got the January dataslate and wow did we finally get some very much needed help!! Biggest Winners Bloodcrushers - 110/220 for 3/6 is a great drop for the crushers. Already a decent unit, now at a great price. Top that with the rendmaster buffs now being able to be stacked and they honestly have moved their way to the top of our units! Skarbrand - Oh god did this one feel like it came from now where! I like the Angriest of boys anyway but a 40pt drop to 305 is amazing!! His flat 6 damage and +1 attack for non monster/vehicle khorne units with 6" makes him very viable in a mono khorne or even just a monster mash list! Plaguebearers - I though PBs were already pretty decent as is, but 110 for them now is great! Poxbringers going down to 55 for crit hits on 5 isn't dreadful and the scrivener now 60 for +1 OC and sustained 1 gives us some very interesting fairly inexpensive options. Great Unclean Ones/Rotigus - Both now down to 230, or 260 for a fatboy with endl...
