chaos sorcerers

[Darbagal]

I am having difficulties with chaos sorcerers bringing lore of death and targeting my general.

In low point games they have a hero level caster and in high level games a lvl 4 as well as a lvl2 giving them access to usually more then one of the sniping spells.

For anyone except for chaos I will try to assassinate the death caster before he gets to many attempts at killing my general but with chaos this becomes more complicated due to the caster having a 2+ AS and also being in a bunker that hits hard (and before my assassins unless I send in a flying vamp).

In large games when I bring a vamp lord my protection is sufficient with a 4+ ward in combination with MR2 from another char in the same unit but if anyone has a good idea about surviving in smaller games this would be appreciated.

Death necro in the same unit as a high ld chara. Snipe them

Warriors of Chaos struggle against monsters (Terrorgheist) because of the lack of cannons.

Scream his bunker to death with Shrieks!

Also, his death magic can not target your lone Terrorgheist anymore with Ld4. if your General is nearby, he'll have Ld 10 against death magic.

Also, a Lvl 4 caster will be a Daemon Prince of Nurgle. Terrorgheists eat those guys for lunch, and Death Magic requires you to stand very close to a scream!

hell, even the MR(1) banner works if you don't like spending it on a char with a Talisman. Also, Curse of years on their units... they can't be ressurrected!

I have had good success using Vargheists in conga to flying charge the unit and concentrate the attacks on the caster if its a problem.

Also if the single caster on disk with the reroll 1's 3+ ward is a problem you can charge a vamp with OTS and scream on him with a TG while your VP is challenging him is an awesome fix too.
