"Hi,\n\nnew to the hobby (well, returning after an exceedingly long absence) and I'm keen to start an Slaanesh force.  Figuring out how much I want to spend (money wise), my initial 1500 point list is this:\n\nDemon Lord, Terminator armour, 2 xLightning claws, mark of slaanesh\n\n6 terminator aspiring champions, 2 xLightning claws, Icon of slaanesh\n\n6 Noise Marines, Sonic blasters, 1 blast master, IoS, rhino\n\n10 CSMs, 1 Champ wi PF, 1 x Flamer, 1 x Melta, IoS, rhino\n\n10 CSMs, 1 Champ wi PF, 1 x Flamer, 1 x Melta, IoS, rhino\n\n3 Obliterators\n\n6 Daemonettes\n\n\nSome questions:\n\nCan I deep strike my Lord with the terminators?  Should I swap him for a prince or Luscius?  I love the idea of a whoe bunch of LC termies with extra attacks, high initiative and rerolls/save nulls.  I appreciate it's an expensive unit.  Can they kill their own points value in a game?\n\nBetter to split down my CSM troops into smaller units?\n\nThe daemonettes are basically a 80 point gap filler, but add nice flavour.\n\nGoal is get the CSMs/NM deployed close and then deep strike termies and  daemonettes in to attack key enemy units.\n\nAs I'm just starting this is just about within my price range, which is a factor.  I plan to add Luscius, a DP and a GD at some point, possibly a land raider to carry the Termies as getting them into cc from deep strike won't happen first turn they land.\n\n\nI'd also like to get my Oblits to the magic number 6.\n\nCheers for the help,\nUmboros"
