3rd Place: John Casey – Thousand Sons
2nd Place: Michael Mann – Orks
1st Place: Kyle Trayah – Chaos Daemons
Kyle’s winning Daemons were led by a Great Unclean One for a large, durable model with solid melee power that can even drop in on enemy. Followed by a Keeper of Secrets and Skarbrand, which are more dedicated to making charges and killing units in melee.
After those is a Lord of Change for buffing some flamers down the list, and the HQs wrap up with a Masque of Slaanesh, which debuffs enemy units.
Battleline doesn’t get too crazy and goes with a single unit of Pleaguebearers, three units of Nurglings for wound soaking, and a single unit of Daemonettes for melee glass cannons.
Three units of Flamers are brought to pair with the Lord of Change to make an insane ranged threat that wipes out entire squads, while three units of Flesh Hounds bring some cheap mobility to help keep enemy ranged units pre-occupied.
In conclusion, the top Warhammer 40k army lists from Mayhem 3 were dominated by Daemons, Orks, and Thousand Sons, with Kyle Trayah’s Daemons army emerging as the ultimate winner.
With its sturdy and close-range focused units, it was able to take down even the toughest opponents once they got in range. Overall, these army lists provide valuable insights for aspiring and veteran Warhammer 40k players alike.
