Editing Warhammer Army Project/Daemons of Chaos (section)

===COME AT ME, BRO!===
Whether you plan on fielding a mono-god army will severely affect how you build your army. Mono-god armies can work very well. Mixed armies will take some time to find your way of using them. In my experience, an all Nurgle army can be almost indestructible, especially with Epidemius giving the whole army continuous buffs. Taking a horde of about 30-50 plague bearers (390-650pts) with a herald with the 5+ poison locus can make this a very daunting prospect. In addition, fielding a unit of 6 Beasts of Nurgle (easily possible in 1000pts) can make for a beastly 6d3+12 attacks unit; 2 of these can get your opponent to instantly give up (even before the game has begun, in my case).

If you take a greater daemon, then you should, if you can, make them at least level 2. I personally wouldn't bother fielding a greater daemon in anything under 2000 points, daemon princes, however, act as a fairly kickass replacement in 1600 battles. The named greater daemons are good, but they tend to be a bit pricy. You should really always be taking a herald and more than often give them some loci or another, just for the added kick.
