Goatboy’s Grimdark List – LVO Creations of Bile Rush!
Goatboy here preparing to bring something to LVO. Of course I always listen to The Doctor’s Orders. Meet my Creations of Bile!
My little brain always looks at the list I have the most experience with lately. My Creations of Bile rush list has done pretty well with a 10-3 over the last 2 events winning record. Heck it got me into the top 8 of the KC Open which isn’t a bad thing for something who doesn’t get a lot of time on the tabletop. That is all great and good, but the question is, what can I do to make the list better?
Breaking Out the Flamers of Tzeentch
Well – right now, it feels like I could add the current bad guy of the metaverse – the Flamers of Tzeentch. I know what you are saying – why add these guys in Goatboy?!? Well, they do a lot of things the current builds just weren’t able to do as well. And it isn’t just shooting a ton of flames on people. I think the biggest thing it does give me is a unit that is extremely fast, a decent amount of wounds, and an amazing save. Plus the ability vomit flames on people.
The army has had a lot of weird issues dealing with some of the more “offensive” shooting units in the game. Those damned Dirty Emperor’s Children are very rough to deal with, as well as some of the Greater daemons. The Flamers give me some ability to hurt things in a different phase on top of a very tough body. It has a ton of wounds, and it allows me to move quickly to block pathways, throw out some damage, and just be a pain to remove off an objective.
On top of that, it also gives me access to a neat little HQ unit that can easily do some extra Psychic Objectives as needed. Because their spells are not nearly as needed as my Master of Possession. I thought about trying to fit in a new Daemon Prince, but the little herald can do a lot for me. Plus, it just makes my Flamers better with Reroll 1’s to wound. With that here is my current brew I want to try out.

This feels like the lean version of my standard CSM list with a ton more wounds to help cover the tabletop and some shooting action. It gives me the Psychic Secondaries abilities I have wanted. Plus some other hard-hitting units to help control the table as my Possessed run like crazy up the board – covering things in their gross nonsense.
The Doctor will see you now…
