slave horde... DoC cant deal with massed crap.

give your slaves spears too on the off chance they poke a demon in the eye.

try to avoid anything that costs a lot of points... in saying that a furance unit with plage banner should do well.

these days you will prob be facing bloodletter hordes or slaneesh chicks in hordes.

either or wont like frontal attacks by DF slaves with spears and giant rats...

is the one game where jezzails might earn there points back. maybe. lol.

GUC or bloodthirter will prob make an appearance for points denial is worth thinking about doomwheel... shoudl also take care of seekers and nurgle creatures.

Well i was thing of an army with loot of shooing, 10 Jezzail, 2 Mortars or mortar and Warpfire team, ratling gun...
I was also plaining to add: WLC, Catapult and HPA
Grey Seer on Bell
Enginer level 2 with doomrocket
BSB
10 Gutter runners
2x40 slaves
2x30 clan rats
maybe 20 stormvermin or plague monks?

But i reall don't know what to do as i don't know how DoC work, are they good in CC, magic, shooting? I guess they should be very good in close combat?

i also have DOC , they can be good in cc or magic depending on the build
the daemon lords are nasty so hit them with jezzails , or cannons , 2 of the main daemons fly and so can some of the heralds, screamers, furys so anything that locks down flying is good, they generally dont have good armour but ward saves
any magic item that protects vs flaming attacks is good as many builds and creatures have flaming attacks and look out for flamers they are evil and tough enough that small units normally used for killing skirimsher units and warmachines will fail vs them
they dont generally have good toughness so a plague cat is handy , they are expensive so expect a big solid troop block and small stuff on flanks which can be very fast
"I am always surprised when people complain a Skaven Army is cheesy. what do they expect from an Army of Rodents"
