1000pts:

-Exalted daemon
mark of khorne
armour of khorne

-16 bloodletters
command

-16 bloodletterscommand

-8 flesh hounds


The major problem for a full daemon army: expensive models(pts and $$) -> small army. This makes it very difficult to win small games.

another bad thing about a daemon army is the daemonic instability rule fail your leadership and you can say bye bye to your daemons!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D

Khorne's biggest advantage is also an important disadvantage: Frenzy. It turns your daemons in awesome close combat opponents, but it also means that you'll have to charge when possible and a wise general can use this.

Khorne also has no magic users, but his army has enough units with magic resistance and enough dispel dice.

other daemon armies:
Nurgle: slow, very, very slow; difficult to kill(high T, many wounds)
Slaanesh: only 1 core choice(you can off course always choose furies), some nasty daemonic gifts
Tzeentch: poor close combat fighters, but horrors have the ability to cast spells, and their characters are real masters of magic.

Tzeentch arent the best in combat...and that slash attack wont do u much good as its S3 and pretty pants...if u did that all ur gonna do is annoy the opponent (ie. me) who will fire 12 bolts at u along with about 40 Crossbow shots...

Read my post: it was about DAEMON ARMIES, nurgle daemons are slow, I wasn't talking about a mortal army! But I do think that slow and big armies are more fluffy for Nurgle.

The same for Tzeentch, I was talking about the daemons, you may only take 1 unit of screamers and they are flyers -> no ranks in combat and unit strenght/model = 1. The horrors are poor cc fighters.

I wasnt totally on about the screamers just being in cc i was also on about the slash attack  but horrors can do just as good as anyother daemon unit can if they get good rolls of the dice

Screamers are a 0-1 unit, you can have only one unit of screamers in your entire army. This means that it's difficult to make a cc-orientated Tzeentch daemon army(you can off course use lots of special(mortal) choices).

Horrors have bad stats compared with the other"basic" daemons(plaguebearers, bloodletters and daemonettes).
