Daemons of Chaos Army Generator!

Post by Kefka »

Come one come all! To the DoC army Generator!
All you need is some dice, theDoC armybook and a pen and paper,then you are ready to beat your friends in a "fun" game of warhammer!
Follow this formula and you will have aDoC army that can win, without going through the trouble of thinking too hard!
Here we go!

Formula footnotes:
When randomizing on pages,count from the top of the page down through the entries. If your roll is off the page, re-roll. (Core selections wrap around to the next page, and only a six is re-rolled).
If selected unit size is below minimum, add model until the minimum is reached.
If randomized unit puts you over the allotted maximum (IE more then 2 rares in 2000 points) then default to the next option down in this order: Rare, Special,Core.

Lord

Roll a d6
1-3 Special character
4-6 Standard

roll on selected page
If a normal lord is selected (un-named greater deamons) roll a d6 to select magic items
1-3 left column of items
4-6 right column
Roll the d6 again to select an item. Repeat once for a total of 2 items,re-rolling if you go over your points limit

When rolling for a daemon prince, roll a d6 for your mark
1-2 undivided
3 Slaanesh
4 nurgle
5 khorne
6 Tzeentch

If not khorne, roll another d6 for magic level
1-2 nothing
3-4 lvl 1
5-6 lvl 4
Then randomize 2 wargear items as described above

Special Character Hero

Roll a D6. If skulltaker is rolled, roll to select his mount:
1-3 nothing
4-5 Juggernaught
6 Chariot

Herald
Roll a D6 to select herald
Roll a D6,on 1-3 he's onfoot, on a 4+ he's mounted
Roll a D6, on a5-6 the herald is a bsb, and roll again to randomize your banner, on a 1-4 randomize 1 piece of wargear as described in the above section

Core
Roll a D6 to select unit
For selected unit take 5D6 models. If roll is under 10, increase to minimum size
If furies are rolled,select 2d6models
Do this 3 times. Furies do not count towards your minimum core, after 2 units of furies re-roll any further units of them, then repeat this step until minimum 3 core is selected.

Special and Rare
Roll a d6 1-3: Special 4-6: rare
Roll aD6to determine unit
if minimum unit size is 1, select d3
If minimum unit size is 3, select d6
If minimum unit size is 5, select 2d6-2

Repeat once

Rounding off points
If final list is over 2000,remove core models until it is under
If final list is 1-124 points under, add command to all units in order of Champions, Standard bearers, then musicians
If final list is 125-175 under, randomize a herald with 1 wargear item
if final list is 175-300 points under, randomize another core unit
if final list is 300-500 under, randomize 2 special or rare units (if rare is maxed out, select specials, and vize versa)
if final list is 500-1000 points under, select 1 herald with mount and 1 wargear option, and 2 special/rare

After preforming the above adjustment,re-check list and adjust as needed.

Thank you! And all this time I was wondering how I was going to make my next unfluffy and overpowered demon list!

What a fantastic idea. Here's my list.

Bloodthirster with obsidian armour, axe of khorne 525
Mounted Slannesh herald with siren song 140
Epidemius 135
Nurgle Herald on foot with noxious vapours 140

13 Bloodletters 156
8 Furies 96
11 Deamonettes, musician 138
20 Pink Horrors 240
13 Bloodletters 156

3 nurglings 105

3 fiends of slannesh 165

total: 1996 points

*edit, realized that the special character hero was compulsory. List changed to work

Wow, now I have a nurgle herald and no unit for him to join...
I guess epidemius and the herald will join the nurglings? :)

The scariest is that those lists can even be competative...

PS: I tried it with DE as well, and it didn't work out... Sorceress with PoS, anyone?
