Chaos wins a first-place finish at the Mid-MO Maelstrom over the weekend, as these Warhammer 40k army lists took the top!
The tournament is over, and now we can look at which lists managed to secure a place at the top! Check out what these winners brought into their armies.
Top 3 Warhammer 40k Army Lists: Mid-MO Maelstrom
Thanks to Best Coast Pairings, we can look back at the event as if we were all there ourselves.
3rd Place: Ryan Olson – Eldar
2nd Place: Dan Sammons – Tyranids
1st Place: Sam Henley – Chaos Daemons
Sam’s battalion was led by Be’lakor, who is essentially a Daemon “Primarch” with great stats, extreme kill pressure, good support, and good durability. There is also a Bloodthirster for a huge melee glass cannon that can delete models if it makes the charge, along with a Lord of Change, which provides great psychic support.
Troops bring in nine Bloodletters for melee presence and 20 Blue Horrors for some good meat shields that spawn more units when they die.
Elites wrap up the list with a decent amount of point investment, all going into 13 Flamers and an Exalted Flamer. These are, in short, great chaff-clearing machines that can even get space marines fairly well, thanks to their built-in -2 AP!
