Goatboy’s Grimdark Armylist – Be’lakor & Three Khorny Boiz

Goatboy here with a list that just screams for the Ruinous Powers. Be’lakor, and his three Bloodthirster buddies are here to wreck shop.

Here’s a list that just screams for you to play.  It doesn’t help I happen to have three Bloodthirsters staring at me in my case right now.  Heck – this might be something I should try out sooner than later just to get it out of my system.  A few players have done well with something similar which has me thinking heck it might work.  Or it will just fall flat on your face as all your big boys get big dead.

This is a pretty simple list.  You have Be’lakor running around with a bunch of Advance & Charging Khorne Bloodthirsters.  You have the Rendmaster who is kind of a pain in the butt and can also amplify a Bloodthirsters Sweep into Damage 3 territory to help deal with some of the elite armies out there.  You can scout one of the Thirsters, deep strike the other for a charge as needed, and even a bunch of Cultists to help drop and sticky objectives.  All of these things allow the army to have a bit of play as it can show up, disappear, and then come down to build whatever advantage it needs.

While it doesn’t have any of the shooting tricks you can have in the army it does showcase a very brutal set of decisions.  You push the pedal to the metal, get ready to crack some skulls, and wreck face for Khorne.  Plus Be’lakor is pretty much a boss right now too as he punches just as hard as his Thirsty friends ready to hit the bar on 2 dollar pint night.

Be’lakor & Three Khorny Boiz Tactics

There is always something nice about an army that has a simple plan.  Plus it has giant monsters that get mad really easily.  I really wish the Bloodthirsters were on circle bases like Skarbrand and all the others but will just have to live thru the pivots like the basic monsters we are.  You better pick the right one to shoot off the table because his angry brother is going to have a word with you in a little bit.
