Hey Guys,

With the new 8e i'm starting a new army and guess what, it's WoC. I've created two lists, both quite similar but don't know which one to take.

First List:
LORD
Sorcerer Lord, LVL4, Disk,MoTzeentch, 4+ WS item, Blood of T, charmed shield, biting blade, conjoined Homuncles

HERO
Exalted Champion, BSB, MoTzeentch, Shield, Book of Secrets, Power Familiar, Third Eye of Tzeentch

Core
30 Marauders, Flail, MoKhorne, FC

20 Warriors, MoTzeentch, Shield, FC, Raptourus Standard

3* 5 Hounds

SPECIAL
12 Chosen, Halberd, Shield, FC, Banner of Rage, Favour of the Gods

RARE
Hellcannon
Warshrine, MoTzeentch

Total: 2250

Second List:
LORD
Sorcerer Lord, LVL4, Disk,MoTzeentch, 4+ WS item, Blood of T, charmed shield, biting blade, conjoined Homuncles

HERO
Exalted Champion, BSB, MoTzeentch, Shield, Book of Secrets, Power Familiar, Third Eye of Tzeentch

Core
30 Marauders, Flail, MoKhorne, FC

15 Warriors, MoTzeentch, Shield, FC, Raptourus Standard

17 Warriors, MoNurgle, Halberd, SHield, FC, Banner of Rage

3* 5 Hounds

SPECIAL

RARE
Hellcannon
Warshrine, MoTzeentch

Total: 2212

So which one will perform better and is funnier to play?

I've been hearing from Ben Curry over @ the Bad Dice Podcast that the Chosen are the way to go.

This is pretty much the character setup that most people are siding with, but I like a little more protection from shooting on my units and on my BSB from death magic.

Also after playing three games with GW marauders I perfer the Tzc hw/shield guys...they have way more staying power...in combat vs Elves and versus shooting in general. Also the three games I played showed that fast moving units are still extremely important...so Trolls, knights or Ogres should be added...

Overall I think this list is solid, but needs to be play tested against a competive Dwarf and Empire lists out there...I think they'll blow this list of the table...

I'm really curious what the guy used (opponent of Ben Curry). I'm changing my list a little bit and will post an update soon.

Just look at Ben's Thread on his Dark Elves...

First a couple notes about your sorceror lord:
- Blood of Tzeentch is now one of the best miscast defenses I've seen. You could still consider infernal puppet as an alternative though because it has offensive capabilities as well.

- Are you planning on using your sorceror to complement another unit in combat?


Personally I like chosen a lot. A unit of 12 seems rather small and vulnerable though. Any casualties to shooting will be decreasing their combat power.

Overall, I think if you can find the points to bump up the unit size of those chosen, I'd like that list better. Both are very small lists though, you're in serious danger of being outflanked.
