Dang. We've lost another good one to the promise of Chaos. Sad day. Your friends will hate you now.
Lol, I joke. Congrats on your new army!

Trying to figure out the model of the "daemon prince" in top right below the book. Someone did say something about it wasn't a daemon prince but a character but the post was removed after i bought it. |

Yeah, I think that's Be'lakor, the Dark Master special character. Honestly, I know nothing about WoC. Ryryak is probably one of your best resources here.
If you ARE looking for a Deamon Prince, I HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend looking at Creature Caster. They are a relatively new company, but OMG! Their sculpts of monsters are BEAUTIFUL! They have some GREAT DP options. If I were collecting a WoC or DoC army, that's the first place I'd look to getting my models! Check out their Warrior Demon.
This is their website:
www.creaturecaster.com/
They also have some great Treemen/women by the way. I have the Treewoman that I obtained through their kickstarter campaign. |

You realize you just got two of the (arguably) strongest armies out there? I'd go easy on your friends once you learn how to play them.  |

Yes but think it help out that I play Wood Elves too And I am an awful general so need all the help I can get. I think it also helps out a bit to play more casual lists without being stomped. |

Well, while HE is definitely a strong army, the same people that say they are one of the strongest, argue that Wood Elves are also one of the strongest, so take that with a grain of salt.
HE are a finesse army. You have to be really careful with them, but when you do, they can crush it. A bit more durable than your WE, but not as many high-impact hitting units.
WoC you just throw them at anything and let them run a muck. They'll be you easiest win. No thought needed. Just point them at your enemy and go for it. I call them a "Hulk SMASH" army.

FYI, Ogres and Orcs are some more "Hulk SMASH" armies. Beastmen take a little more finesse, just I chalk that up to only having a 7th edition book. Dwarves are just too slow to be an effective "Hulk SMASH" army. Lizardmen can be a Hulk SMASH army, but they do better with a combination of units.

WOC can be very devastating... IF you can get your troops into the combats they want. Your opponent will be doing everything he can to deny you those combats. And even on the limited battlefield space available, there's quite a bit a good player can do to deny you the combats you want and achieve the combats HE wants.
That's the trick to playing Chaos. Yes, you've got the hardest close-combat troops. But if you ignore the battle of maneuver you'll get tromped by an experienced player every time. Just wading straight forward only works against inexperienced players.

Yes, that Daemon Prince Model is an old Belakor the first Daemon Prince character. I actually got rid of one quite a few years ago and I'm kicking myself now I want him back  One thing I will say about your WoC is don't neglect your chaff. Dogs and Marauder horsemen are absolutely critical to a good list; they will help screen you against shooting and help you line up the correct matchups you need to win combat. It's too easy to just load up on Warriors and march across the table but like others have said: a good opponent will be doing everything he can to prevent combat with you for as long as he can. Those creature casters are great models. Mierce miniatures is another great source for monsters and beasts as well. Congratulations! You've got what looks to be a great start to a WoC army! |
