Welcome to the site. ;)

Chosen knights are expencive (45 points each + m/st/ch). If you take only 4 of them they'll die very fast by your oponents magic or misile fire if you do not make shure they are shielded by your hounds at all time.
12 wariors in a unit is yust not enough, they'll loos combat reselution very easy, at least try and take 16. To do this you could take away 10 hounds. then you'll have 60 poibts to fill up your unit of wariors with shields (4 of them costs exactly 60points). But It's you choise, if you like playing with the hounds i would leave it as it is.
Well i don't have any coments left ^_^ maybe some of the others do.

Yea My plan was to shield the knights with a unit of hounds, and I will bump up the unit of warriors to 16.
Thx for the reply :D :chaos: :chaos:

Normally, I would say that a unit of 12 chaos warriors is enough, they hold there own in combat, and give a couple of wounds back. But I also would think it is best in this case, to have bigger units of warriors (20 if you can gwt it) so the outnumbered-by-a-fear-causing-enemy can be put into good effect.

What I would recommend is becomming Archaon's horde (seeming as you have no beastmen or daemons in the list) as any unit of warriors on 16 or above get a free full command upgrade, which saves you a load of points.

My thoughts amyway, Omid B)

Can you still use that list? hmmm i didn't knew that :D

Yep, you can use them, they count as lists in every respect, so you can use them in tournies and/or in regular battles.

12 strong units works good if supported by something, chariots for example. also Id divide those hound units up to 4 units of 5 as this gives your opponent 4 targets to get rid of instead of just 2 bigger. try to get in 1-2 more knights and it looks ok :)

oh and its barded, barbed warhorses would look strange ;)

Looks like a very good list, just afew things:

1. Add an extra knight for more damage
2. Make the warrior units 16 ( if your units cause fear make sure you outnumber them if you can)
3. Shield your knights and warriors with additional hand weapon with the warhounds.

Hope it helps

The only problem with the ideas is that it is costing too many points. What I would do is drop the chariot (I hear they only get good at two) then you can bump up the two units of warriors to 16 (with the free full command) and give the chosen unit another knight so they do some real damage. If it costs a bit more drop a puppie from one of the units, if not, I would advise on splitting the doggies into units of 5 if possible. That way, the enemy has to shoot two units for them to die instead of one. Although you will have more panic tests it shouldn't be a problem as you get the general's ld (assuming the Ex. champ will be) as they are right in front of him.
