When
I first caught wind of what was coming for the Storm of
Chaos, I immediately went to work building an army that
would serve Archaon’s will. I managed to get 25 of the
new Chaos Warriors very early and was so excited to have them
that I literally painted them all in 1 day (Battle Bunker
24-Hour Challenge madness, you see). My servitude to Nurgle
only grew from there.
The idea for this list is to have enough units to force my
opponent to make a decision about what to destroy. Three
units
can get across the table quickly, and the two blocks of troops
form a nice, hard centre. I made sure, even at such a low
point value, to take full advantage of the Archaon’s
Horde list and get the units big enough to get free command
upgrades. I took it easy on magic items and options, which
allowed me to put more models in a 1,000-point list than
you
might expect from a Chaos player. This list, properly played,
should prove to be a challenge for my opponents. If I can
figure out how to make some decent dice rolls, I should be
good!
