Daemons in the Palace! Atomic Empire Daemon Showcase

Daemons made their way to the tables of the Atomic Empire tournament, claiming the ruins of an old palace on display. Check this out.

Atomic Empire was a pre-qualifier event for a later tournament called Warzone Atlanta. With so many people competing for a spot in the next tournament, we saw some amazing lists. Here is a spliced Daemon list.

We move fast taking pictures at events. If this is your army and would like credit for it, email us at Support@Spikeybits.com

Looking at this list, it looks like the Daemons organized their force on an old abandoned palace. With a multi-level display, we’re already starting off on the right foot. Let’s jump into the details of the army!

Tzaangors were out on the frontlines being the basic shocktroops for Daemons. Nice touch on the basing effect and having it match your display board. It’s a small effect but adds a ton of detail.

As for the Tzaangors that managed to get their own ride, these guys are sporting a variety of different discs. One of the cooler ones probably being the blue warp flame sprouting up underneath the enlightened.

A Tzeentch army isn’t really a Tzeentch army without the psychic powerhouse that is Ahriman, either. Of course, he had to come along.

atomic empire daemon 5

Morty traded out some of his Nurglings on his base for some Poxwalkers that look to be walking out of a toxic green goop. That’s a pretty cool effect we haven’t seen on a Mortarion before! Plus that green and purple color combo really makes the model pop.

And in this list, Magnus the Red is actually Magnus the Purple. He’s standing on a dope marble base that fits the display board as well. With Ahriman and Magnus in the list, all their psychic problems were covered.

And finally, this Daemon Prince with wings partnered up with another purple one to wreck anything in close combat. Hiding in the mass of Tzaangors, these guys could leap out and pummel armor into the ground. Great army!
