Slaanesh themed list; New to WoC

Hey all,

just started to get in to WoC... always been a fan of slaanesh and so wanted to make my first army slaanesh themed, I understand that this may mean it isn't as competitive as it could be, but hopefully it might create a list that others aren't expecting quite as much... and more importantly is fun to run. I've also tried to acknowledge a bit of the fluff by running everything in 6's :)
Anyway, this is what i'm looking at:

Slaanesh DP 515
lvl4 slaanesh, chaos armour, flight, ots, db gme, charmed shield, scaled skin, flaming breath

Chaos Sorc 245
lvl2 shadow, familiar, MoS, spellshield, opal amulet, biting blade

Exalted Hero 198
BSB, Allure of Slaanesh, MoS, shield, T of Endurance, dragonhelm

18 chaos warriors 333
MoS, Full Command, Shields, Banner of swiftness

12 Forsaken 252
Mark of Slaanesh

6 warhounds 48
Vanguard

6 warhounds 48
vanguard

6 hellstriders 150
full command, hellscourges

6 hellstriders 150
full command, hellscourges

6 Trolls 216
AHW

Chimera 245
regen

Points total - bang on 2400 (thats the standard size round here at the moment)

I'm trying to make something that is going to be reasonably hard hitting, but very mobile and flexible... it's certainly got a lot of speed but i'm not sure it's got the punch. Any suggestions would be useful

cheers

Welcome into the Dark Prince's embrace :)

Firstly I would drop the familiar for a dispel scroll. You'll find most of the dice you generate will be needed to keep the Slaanesh spells going, and a scroll will help keep your precious few bodies alive. I'm not sure the spellshield is worth it but and enchanted shield would be great on this guy, nice and cheap 2+ save.

Trolls are great on paper, however I find them lacking in a DP based no Throgg list. You want that DP flying across the table, holding things up with unbreakable, beating up 1+ armoured units, and still casting from combat. This will quickly leave the trolls behind and stupidity becomes a huge issue.

Chimera is a great support for DP, I would give him flaming breath in addition to regen. This way the pair can hit a block of something like 50 infantry, unleash 2 breath weapons + 2 thunderstomps along with normal attacks and clear such an anvil out in two turns max. At all times keep him within 12" of the DP (IP) but more than 6" away (Panic).

I run the exact same DP, but with soul feeder. It is an easy and cheap addition to make this guy a grind machine.

I find with a L4 Slaanesh caster a single hellcannon is a worthy investment. With the auto panic check, the possibility to cast something like phantasmagoria, this makes people very nervous.

Haven't used forsaken yet but have heard good things. My hellstriders are pretty hit or miss really, but they keep to the theme and will surprise people how quickly they can zoom around.
