About this deal

A good example of a Maggotkin army, and would mix brilliantly with the Daemons of Nurgle box for a nice flavourful Nurgle list. If you build one of the Pusgoyle Blightlords you’l end up with a spare). If you build them as the Pusygoyle Blighttlords and make the Lord of Blights your general you’ll have a game legal 500pts army out of the box as they become Batteline.

While it’s not the biggest points sink of the Start Collecting boxes it gives you a great taste of what units you’ll actually be using. Shouts to Luke Stone. Also I really haven’t gone into too much detail about Agenda’s or Destiny Dice, but these are all things that are really worth exploring a bit later.Here are some of the psychic powers you’ll spend a lot of time with if you’re planning on mastering Thousand Sons tactics: Low Cost. Because you aren’t paying for cowardly ranged weapons on most of your units, Chaos Daemons are cheap. Bloodletters, Daemonettes, Plaguebearers, and Horrors are some of the game’s cheapest Troops units, and they receive bonuses for running more than 20 models in a unit which encourages you to take larger squads. All this being said, Slaves to Darkness still haven’t been brought into the equation and can really offer a lot more Mortal Options for both Wizards, Battleline and extra powerful units. But when Tzeentch requires more attention to a task, will then deploy his greater daemons: the Lords of Change. Skullreaver – Replaces an axe of Khorne, great axe of Khorne, or daemonic axe. Profile is S+3, AP-4, D6 Damage and against TITANIC units you re-roll failed wound rolls. Additionally, each time you roll a 6+ to Wound, your target takes an extra D3 mortal wounds. Now we’re talking, this thing is great. It’s money on a Daemon Prince of Khorne, though as a result its utility is diminished as they’ve become overcosted. This doesn’t offer enough value over an Axe of Khorne on a Bloodthirster to justify taking it, especially when you have the Engine War version that gives you a damage floor. There’s never a good reason to take this over a Great Axe of Khorne. B+

Contents: 1 Herald on Blood Throne (Hero), 10 x Bloodletters (Battleline) and 3 x Bloodcrushers (Battleline if General is Skullmaster) Hideous Visage: Enemy units within 12” get -1 Ld and -2 within 6”. This is just not what you want from an Exalted greater daemon, and most of the reason you don’t want to roll for Great Unclean Ones. D The other ability in common with all leaders is Master of Destiny. For a Triple, it allows to add the value of the ability (to a maximum of 6) to any other ability used by a fighter within 12” from the leader.

Thousand Sons Pre Heresy

All Flames: Changecaster with Staff of Change, Iridescent Horror, 3 Pink Horrors, 2 Blue Horrors and 1 Brimstone Horror.

Bloated with Corruption: This model becomes Toughness 8. This is a big boost in a bolter and melta meta, but it’s not quite as good as Revoltingly Resilient. A The second of the 2 Cities of Sigmar boxes that came out with the Battletome, this time its the chance of the old plastic Dwarves to take the turn in the spotlight.As with many Warhammer 40k Chaos factions, we’d better start at the beginning with Thousand Sons lore – you’ve got to understand how it started before we see how it’s going… Mike P: Flames of Mutation and Warp Jaws really help Flamers and Screamers hit harder than people expect. Opponents have to play around the fact that you could easily roll hot and decimate a unit like Custodian Guard or Vanguard Vets with Mortal Wounds that would otherwise be safe from high volumes of low AP fire. Magical Boon is also handy if you’re bringing a Herald or Lord of Change in Undivided soup, as they each know one more power than they can cast. To maximize your Mortal Wound output, you can use Magical Boon to cast Infernal Gateway and Bolt of Change, following up with an additional Smite at +2 at the end of the Psychic Phase. A’rgath, the King of Blades – Khorne model only, replaces a Blade of blood or Hellforged sword. Gives you a S+1, AP-4, D3 Damage sword that can re-roll failed wounds when Targeting a character and if you give it to a monster, its damage improves to a flat 3 damage. It’s… OK. On a Daemon Prince you’re basically looking for this as a potential second relic after you’ve given the Skullreaver to another Daemon Prince but most of the time you’re going to wish you’d just doubled up on talons. Take the Skullreaver before this. On Heralds it’s not really worth spending the relic. C

Contents: 1 Great Bray-Shaman (Hero), 10 x Ungors (Battleline) / Ungor Raiders, 10 x Bestigors (Battleline with Bray-Shaman or Beastlord General) and 1 x Cygor (Behemoth) / Ghorgon (Behemoth) The Magister is also a great option, either on disc and foot, to provide you an extra spell and has a chance to bring in a free Chaos Spawn with their inbuilt spell if you slay any models. Contents: 1 x Oldblood on Carnosaur (Hero), 12 x Saurus Warriors (Battleline in units of 10) and 8 x Saurus Knights (Battleline in units of 5) Mike P: While the Khorne, Tzeentch, and Nurgle loci are more “nice to have” than worth building around, the Slaanesh locus is mandatory for lists going heavy on Slaanesh Daemons. The extra d6” threat range gained from advancing and charging gives you the option to semi-reliably make turn 1 charges, and makes it much harder for your opponent to keep units safe all game.

Another alternative are the two heralds that can do 3/6 ranged damage. Their abilities are arguable, in particular the Fluxmaster Blue Fire, while the Changecaster Pink Fire is slightly more reliable. For something a little tougher, to plod forward and take the battle to the enemy, Scarab Occult Terminators are the Thousand Sons variant of a Warhammer 40,000 classic. They have excellent stats for shooting, combined with some strong armour which should see them survive the battle. In terms of weapons, the Inferno Combi-bolter can mow down enemy units in moments, dealing a huge amount of damage to enemies like Space Marines with an almost embarrassing amount of ease. X1 – 2 boxes of Blue and Brim Horrors, same as above even if just for summoning but they make amazing screens
