Possible 3000 WoC 8th edition list

So, like many people I have been re-jigging my current list in preparation for the coming 8th edition.

This is what I have so far:

LORD:
Sorcerer lord(lvl4)+MoT+puppet+book of sec+tals of endur+en shield+3rd eye+conjoin homon=430

HEROES:
Ex hero(BSB)+MoT+halberd+tals of preservation=194
Sorcerer(lvl2)+pow fam+scroll=170
Throgg

CORE:
17 warriors+MoK+shields+halberds+fc+rap std=369
29 marauders+MoK+gw+fc=195
30 marauders+MoK+gw+fc=200
5 warhounds
5 warhounds
5 warhounds

SPECIAL:
5 trolls
11 chosen+MoK+shields+halberds+fc+fav of gods+war ban=330
5 Knights+m=210

RARE:
Hellcannon
Hellcannon

Total=2998

The thing is I'm really undecided if the chosen and knights are really worth it. I don't think knights will be as useful now, so maybe I should bump up the chosen?

Dont forget that if you include Throgg in your list trolls count as core.

Good point, completely forgot that! Any other thoughts on the list?

Your level 2 sorceror is illegal under the new rules since he has two arcane magic items.

Other than that I almost never play 3000 points so can't be of much help. The unit of chosen seems small though- too small probably and the unit of knights needs to be khornate, larger or both.

Aw crap, didn't know they'd changed the ruling for scrolls in the 8th edition! Oh well, time for a re-think!

I know what your saying on the chosen and knights, maybe I should just drop the chosen and get more regular warriors? Thing is I liked the potential for the EOTG rollon the chosen to help boost that unit a bit.

Also, does anyone know if the lookout sir rules have changed from the 7th edition? If they haven't I'll go back to mounting my character:)

So, have had a re-think, here is my new planned list.

LORD:
Sorcerer lord(lvl4)+MoT+puppet+book of sec+tals of endur+en shield+3rd eye+conjoin homon=430

HEROES:
Ex hero(BSB)+MoT+halberd+tals of preservation+horse=210
Sorcerer(lvl2)+scroll=145

CORE:
17 warriors+MoK+shields+halberds+fc+rap std=369
29 marauders+MoK+gw+fc=195
30 marauders+MoK+gw+fc=200
5 warhounds
5 warhounds
5 warhounds

SPECIAL:
6 trolls
16 chosen+MoN+shields+halberds+fc+fav of gods+ban o rage=440
5 Knights+MoK+m=240

RARE:
Hellcannon
Hellcannon

Total=2999

The chosen may not be the most cost effective option, but
I like the idea of them so wanna give them a go.

Any ideas for improvements to the list?

Looks better.

Just noticed the book of secrets on the sorceror lord- With the new miscast tablem, and even with the puppet, are you sure that's wise? If you gave it to your bsb you would also have an extra chaneller in your army and less risk to your general.

Got to read through the new rule book last night at my local gw and so have revised my list accordingly:

LORD:
Lord+shield+MoT+horse+axe o K+tals o endur+HoME=354
(under the new rules he hits first and gets re-rolls to hit, and with a 1+ armour save and 4+ ward save he's pretty well protected.
The beauty is that with all the re-rols to hit he gets a higher chance to killing blow characters in challenges :P )

HEROES:
Ex hero(BSB)+MoT+halberd+tals of preservation+horse=210
Sorcerer(lvl2)+scroll+sword o M+en shield=170
(Idea with this guy is to use him as a caster but also as a unit champ for the tzeentch marauders. I may well drop the other items for the 3rd eye or conjoined homon though!)
Sorcerer(lvl2)+puppet=155
(with the new miscast table the puppet HAS to be in a chaos army ^_^ )

CORE:
16 warriors+MoK+shields+halberds+fc+rap std=352
16 warriors+MoN+shields+halberds+fc+ban o rage=367
29 marauders+MoK+gw+fc=195
29 marauders+MoT+la+shield+fc=214
5 warhounds
5 warhounds

SPECIAL:
6 trolls
5 Knights+MoK+m=240

RARE:
Hellcannon
Hellcannon

Total=2997

The main thing that may change is the mounted characters in the warrior units. I couldn't find the look-out sir rolls rules last night, and therefore will leave them like this until it is confirmed if they still get a 2+ look-out sir roll.

Any thoughts?

Nice list that looks very solid. The trolls might get stupid in the wrong moment, but you cannot plan everything, can you? :)
