Local Tournament

Yesterday, I participated in a small tournament. My army performed OK with 2 wins and one loss. Had the last game gone differently, I would have won instead of ending up 2ND. Had a great time anyway.

My list:

1 Daemon Prince
Wings; Lash of Submission; Mark of Slaanesh

It seems this army has trouble playing against horde armies, particularly, Tyranids. Against other elite or MEQ armies, I usually do well enough. In the last two tournaments, I have faced off against the Bugs three times (that's half of my games). My record against them is two draws with one loss. My problem is that I can not kill the big bugs fast enough with the Obits and still manage the large squads bearing down on me. So with that in mind I plan on making room for a Vindicator.

Will see how that goes. Now I have to get back to working on that Vindicator....
