ok i havent really won any games at 1750 with my deamons so now im wondering why ??
the first thing is lack of experience playing against the range of new armies that are out thier
second thing i thought about is the points limit and heres why
before 5th ed every body played 1500 points games then tournaments progresse to 1750 now heres the problem most armies get better with the extra points
for example white scars biker army at 1500 pts is 2 small to survive now adding 250pts to the mix you can add more troops moer weapons or get a chappy for the command squad and other lil trinkets
now this can be seen across every army im not gunna list them all as id be here all day and i need to finish painting my chariot and get it posted so
deamons get better the smaller they go this is because deamon princes greater deamons etc are so expensive and most people minimise troops so they can max out on other goodies the other benefit to smaller points limit is they become harder to kill most bolt spam lists 38-42 models depending on units taken etc this doesnt really change between 1500/1750
lets take the purifier spam grey knights list at 1500 their gunna get 4 rhinos 2 dreads and a chimeara for coteaz and his buddies
now these all have small units in them each 1 will have 2 focus its fire to take down my multi wounded monsters and u have 1 turn or so before the first wave is on you and then next turn you hav fire support comin down as well to deal with tanks the other benefit is they double up s anti infantry with demonic gaze so those small 5 man units become even easier to kill
this theory has been backed up by deamons winning smaller events ie 1200 1k points limits
i have 1 more list i should try and thats something around fate weaver and as i think feinds have been doin alot better than crushers ill do somethign like this
