I´m sick of panting and playing with my 2000pts skaven,
so i thought that i would start to play chaos.
I want to play nurgle mortals, do i need both hordes of chaos and beasts of chaos?

any suggestions on a 1000pts starter armylist?


Thx

I think that you only need the BoC book if you plan on including beasts in your army.

If you don't have marauders, you'll be hard pressed to win games. You really do need "expendable" troops.

But i dont want to field beastmen in my army. I want Chaos warriors. maby some plaguebearers later when i expand.

so only hordes of chaos?

so maruders is a must then? I´ll just learn to like em then :P

please just post what you would use in a 1000pts game then. or what works good against most armies.

BTW i dont have any models yet so post anything.

That's my experience (from facing against them).

You really don't want to take 3 fanatics with mushrooms into your chaos warriors regiment...

VF is right.(as always)
You need some cheap troops. Take some Marauders and hounds too.
If you only take Chaos warriors/cavalry you will be greatly outnumbered and a shooty army will rip you to shreds.You'll also be easily out-maneuvered and hit in the flank/rear.

For your maruders give them GW they look awesome. Cut the flail chain off and glue and axe head in its place.
