Recently there's been a lot of talk about putting together non traditional lists, getting away from the "net list" mentality so with that in mind I fired up Army Builder with a challenge. Here's what I came up with, I dedicate this one to Ashicus and Tremendous:

覧覧覧蘭

2500 pts, 66 models, 9 units.

Chaos Lord of Slaanesh (General, MoS)
+ Manticore
Ogre Blade
Dragon Helm
Talisman of Preservation
Ironcurse Icon
Allure of Slaanesh
Soul Feeder

Exalted Hero of Slaanesh (BSB, MoS)
+ Steed of Slaanesh
Sword of Swift Slaying
Charmed Shield
Talisman of Protection
Potion of Foolhardiness
Hideous Visage
Scaled Skin

Chaos Sorcerer of Slaanesh (Level 2, MoS, Lore of Shadows)
Feedback Scroll

Chaos Sorcerer of Slaanesh (Level 2, MoS, Lore of Shadows)
Dispel Scroll Scroll

14x Marauders of Slaanesh (FC, MoS, LA, Shd)
Note: Sorcerer goes here...

14x Marauders of Slaanesh (FC, MoS, LA, Shd)
Note: Sorcerer goes here...

6x Forsaken of Slaanesh (MoS)

6x Forsaken of Slaanesh (MoS)

5x Chaos Warhounds (Vanguard)

5x Chaos Warhounds (Vanguard)

9x Hellstriders of Slaanesh (FC)
Note: BSB goes here...

Chimera (Flaming Breath, Regenerating Flesh)

Chimera (Flaming Breath, Regenerating Flesh)

覧覧覧蘭

Very mobile, the idea of course being to tie things up and kill them with my monsters. While the Hellstriders clear away chaff/war machines and my own chaff ties up other units. Not super competitive, but I think in certain restricted environments, with the right general it could work. Better yet, no one would see it coming lol.

Nice concept for a list. I'm not sold on the lord on manticore... i would take those points and invest in either a Slaanesh DP or Sorcerer Lord with.... LORE OF SLAANESH! It is such a hard core lore i'm suprised not many people run it.

The trouble with running a Sorcerer Lord or DP is that I'm trying to get away from that type of a list, specifically. Every list I've made in the past year has been DP, etc. I also wanted to do a big mean Lord, I'd have mounted him on a dragon if there were points for it. Still, Manticore + 2 Chimeras sounds like a world of hurt for somebody.

In something like ETC or Swedish comp I think a list like this would stand a real chance.

Yeah good point, it's pretty dam hard to go past the old DP. Manticore is fun and you can shield the 3 flyers with the trolls at deployment. Then you can keep him safe with the chimeras in the fire arcs. I am a little ashamed i havn't even tried a warrior lord with our new book... as far as bang for your buck goes i feel the dp edges in front.

Having 3 flying monsters plus the hellstriders with a character will be fun, but I find lists like this really struggle when you have absolutely nothing to break steadfast. I've been in games against MSU lists where just having one rank opposed to none made a huge difference in the end result, allowing my units to hold out long enough for help to arrive.

I don't know about Swedish, but in etc this is not going to perform well. Even with the last draft, woc are comped a lot more than other armies.
You should find the points for a dragon, it may move the list to the "hardcore" zone. You could drop the hellstriders and use marauder horsemen instead (dropping something in the core section).
