Greetings Not from LVO 2020

Hello everybody, so this is going to be my pity party, due to unforseen circumstances, I will not be attending LVO this year.  To say that I wasnt excited to go would be an understatement, I was totally ready to go and had finished painting the last units for my Dark Mechanicus which was going to make their triumphant return this year from a 2 year hiatus.  But alas they will not, all the hard work I put in wasnt wasted as I needed to get them done by it does feel a little like a waste of time.  The list I was going to bring had the following -

HQs - Lord Discordant, Chaos Lord, Hellwright, and Master of Possessions

Elites - 5 man terminator Melta squad, Helbrute

Troops - 15 Chaos space marines, 30 cultists

Flyer- Heldrake

Heavy - 2 Maulerfiends, 2 Forgefiends, 4 Obliterators

Additional support would come in a Chaos Knight detachment of an Atrapo and 3 Wardogs in case somebody wanted to bring along a super heavy detachment to play against.  The list would provide me with a fun flexible force full of theme and able to take on all non tournament list comers.. lol.  Of course even with the updates that Chaos got, Daemon engines are just sub par in the meta right now.  The lower point cost does make it more affordable to take them and so I can spam them a little bit, the one exception to this is the Heldrake which now being a heck of a lot cheaper makes it very tempting to take with its ability to tie up key units in the early game.  I did a list with wardogs that made me having 6 tough units rushing an opponents line along with a heldrake giving me a chance that at least 3 units will make it to cause havoc in their lines. 

Maybe next year I will bring the same army as right now im in the middle of painting up my updated Thousand Sons army.  I have been dying to finish updating this army that my lovely wife bought me a couple of years ago at Christmas.  So we shall see, until next time I will keep an eye on updates coming from the event hoping that they have a fantastic turnout and everybody has a fantastic time.
