It's time to unleash my Haemonculi. Refining a list is what getting a lot of games in is for. This list is updated from the previous one listed a few weeks back. I wrote a battle report on this lists predecessor. I am moving more in this direction with the Haemonculi and more forward assault support. Hence the Pain Engines and Haemonculi.

The Haemonculi will throw down their arcane wargear to confuse and frustrate the enemy, while Pain Engines are set to use the portals. Wyches are designated for disabling armoured lines, while the rest of the army pushes forward into the middle field, leaving behind the warriors in the backfield.

Vect will ride along with the Incubi, and the three haemonculi can split up between the three elite choices, Incubi and Trueborns. With the 75% chance of going first, and the warp portals, the Pain engines should have plenty of time to do their business.

Tactic wise with the Webways, I want to be able to use them not only as a board edge, but as a defensive impassable terrain as well. An 11" wall possibly blocking off an objective, or centered on the board, that I have full mobility around and am able to come through with Pain Engines. Time to take full advantage of this powerful tool.
