Given the speculation on the Cyanide next edition release (details here: viewtopic.php?f=26&t=36259)

What exactly would a Khorne demon roster look like?

P.S. I refuse to spell it with an 'a'. Bring unto me ALL your lawyers!

Presumably no illistrations are required. You know I have no idea. maybe a team that starts with clpomb so you don't have to bother developing?

Frenzy and lots of strength access would seem to be the givens to me. I don't particularly love this roster, but I think renaming the old savage Orc roster from MBBL would fit the bill and according to galak had a reasonable win percentage because the mass frenzy was difficult to manage.

Pestigors with Frenzy

It’s Khorne Daemons though, and yeah I am spelling it with an “a”.

So Bloodletters are a must, I can’t see them bringing in Fleshhounds or Juggernauts, but maybe a Daemon prince big guy. A Bloodthirster would be silly as they are huge.

Maybe the boring option would be

0-16 Khorngors - Beastmen as chaos roster
0-4 Bloodletters 6/4/2/8 Frenzy 110K GSM (AP)
0-1 Prince 6/5/1/9 Loner, Wild Animal, Frenzy, Mighty Blow, Prehensile Tail 150K SM (GAP)

There, sort of balanced but kind of bland and pointless, I’m sure Cyanide’s will be all kinds of crazy and probably awful.

I don’t think they should be allowed a wizard or an apoth though. Khorne hates magic and doesn’t care for whence the blood flows. :D

5 ST4 tackle, thick skull, block players
6 ST4 clawpomb jump up players
1 Minotaur without loner and wild animal
4 ST3 skinks

All AG4 AV9 just to cover all the bases. :roll:

my guess is:

0-12 Marauders (just like Pact stats)
0-4 Khorngors (beastmen with Frenzy)
0-4 Bloodletters (no idea what skills tho)
0-1 Bloodthirster

If it was an all daemon team I reckon everything should have regeneration and decay to represent Daemonic Instability and Ward Save.

0-16 Bloodletters. 6 3 3 7 Horns, Regen, Decay. GSM 50k
0-4. Blitzers. 7 3 3 7 Horns, Regen, Decay, Frenzy. GSM 90k
0-1 Bloodthirster. 5 5 2 8 Horns, Frenzy, Regen, Decay, Wild Animal, Blood Lust, Mighty Blow, Leap. MS 160k

Rerolls 70k
no apo.

while I am sure the team will include some daemons, I have to hope the expression "Khorne Daemon roster" is one of those lost in translation things between French and English.. :-?

Based on the screenshots, my estimate would be:

0-16 bloodletter 6338 frenzy, horns G SAPM
0-4 khorne warrior 5429 frenzy GS APM
0-1 bloodthirster 5519 frenzy, regen, wild animal, wings*, loner, mighty blow S MAPG

I don't know where they'd start on cost, but given my faith in this process, I'll guess 40k across the board (ho ho ho).

*no idea either.

I don't know, maybe it's just me, but I think the norse roster we have right now (maybe minus the thrower) looks what I would imagine a khorne roster to look like. So basically what I am saying is: why? why does anybody need it? (sorry for the rant, it's just that I am still dumbstruck by the idea)
