Cool list, death by psyker to all of your enemies! Fuffy. Also, love a Tzeentch Daemon list as they always used to be my warhammer fantasy faction (back in the day). Don't think it qualifies as a brigade though? Would need 3 elites, 3 fast attacks and 3 heavy supports?

Thanks, I'm not very up to date with faq's and changes so I do make mistakes. And yeah I agree it's fluffy as that's kind of what I wanted. But I also think it should do okay in games of 40k and if I get bored of 40k I can go strait to sigma without buying any more figures. Unfortunately I don't know when I can start collecting them as I am already collecting space wolves but I can't wait until I get some tzeentchian models as they look awesome.

I agree bud. Very cool models and a good excuse to have a nice bright, colourful army! And yeah, this looks like it could do well :-) plenty of smite and general trickery.

One thing I have noticed is that tzeentch only have one phycic discipline can you cast same power more than once

Nice list and welcome to playing Daemons! I love that you have all the big birds. I've been running just Kairos but he gets focused down really fast.

If you are playing matched play then you can only cast each psychic once, except smite, but we aren't immune to the +1 to cast each time like the Thousand Sons are.

Screamers in packs of 3 are great for grabbing objectives when you need them to get there quickly, but the 4+ WS really hurts them in the combat phase if they aren't in larger packs.

Flamers can really help to clear the enemy chaff screens and coupled with Flickering Flames can get some work done, especially in large packs. I've had some success running between 6 and 9 of them in one unit.

Good luck with the collecting, their colour scheme makes them really fun to paint!

Thanks for the advice and I think that tzeentch should get three sets of disciplines because of sheer number of phycic powers they can cast:)
