It took That Guy a YouTube channel by the name of Team0Comp all of seven hours to break Warhammer 40,000 7th edition. Yikes...

The List

1850 points

  • Fateweaver
  • Four Heralds of Tzeentch, all mastery level 3, two with Exalted Rewards
  • Two Daemon Princes with Marks of Tzeentch, both Mastery Level 3, one with a Greater Gift
  • Six squads of 11 Pink Horrors each

Total Mastery Level: 38

For psychic powers, spam Daemonology Malefic. Get as many copies of Summoning as you can. Spam more Horror squads, and some more Heralds if you can. Your army will about double in models in two turns, and double in points in three turns. Nothing short of Grey Knights has a chance at dispelling you. Or, if you don't want to make the game last two days and just want a cup of your opponent's tears right now, manifest all Telepathy and turn your army invisible, since Invisibility got buffed into the stratosphere.

Did I mention this shit is Battle-forged (as in, this is an FOC-abiding monstrosity)?

Here is a video showing the infamous list in action. Note that even though this has let the daemons rise to an almost stupefying 4000 points, they still only managed to tie up with the Space Marine army they fought against (Lined with Tigurius, some Legion of the Damned, and a Knight among them), if only because they were running Tactical Objectives.

Extra Cheese

If you really feel like whoring out the warp charges, take an allied detachment of chaos space marines with a sorcerer with the mark Tzeentch (or Ahriman) and take 2 squads of thousand sons as troops. This gives an extra 5 warp charges (ML 3 sorcerer + 2 ML 1 aspiring sorcerers) or six with Ahriman. This gives a grand total of 40-41 warp charges while still being battle forged (aaaand you are going over 2000 points. Ahriman alone costs 230).

In All Honesty

This list isn't as completely unbeatable as you might think at first glance - you should know by now just how knee-jerk the neckbeard community is. The daemons are relying on going first, or they'll start losing six or more mastery levels as soon as the bullets start flying. It's just incredibly unfun to play against, and only exists so your opponent can show off how much more money he has than you.
