1st Place: Brent Simon – Chaos Daemons

Brent’s Chaos Daemons were led by the big bad Be’lakor as a considerable threat, along with a Fluxmasterand 2 Fateskimmers for Psychic support.

Then the elites go all in on chaff damage with 3 Exalted Famers and 13 normal Flamers. However, they also have AP built-in, making them excellent at killing marines and even decent at chipping away at other armored threats.

Fast Attack has six Screamers for some great mobility options that are very fast and are decent in melee.

Finally, the Be’lakor & Tzeentch list ends with three Burning Chariots, which are more mobility with melee power, but also have ranged weapons thanks to the horrors on the chariot!
