New army for 2011: Daemons?


Hi guys,
I've been thinking about a new tournament army for 2011. I wanted something that would offer me a different playstyle. Nowadays a lot of competitive armies tend to be mechanised, and although the contents of the transports may differ, they really don't add much variety. I love 5th ed. and have nothing against mech, but I wanted something different.

Brent over at Strictly Average has been playing Daemons for I think the past year on a tournament level. Anybody looking to start competitve Daemons should head over to his site. Daemons seem like a cool army. I did a test model, although the pic of him above is a bit bad, and I think I'm gonna go ahead and buy the rest of my 1750pts. army. Talking of lists, I'll finish this short post with my list. It was made using BattleScribe, a great free list maker, and I suggest you all give it a try. I even got so excited, that I added names for all the units :D . Happy New Year everyone!

  1. Daemons is a cool army to play with, and a hard hitting one I guess with a quite different style of play to Tau or Space Marines.
    I am too thinking of starting my second army at some point as my 1750 army is coming to completion within February.
    I am currently going through the fluff of the new Dark Eldar, and I got to say I love their new minis.
    I hope that by the time I am finishing my second army, I won't have any urges for a third one :P
