So, after hearing lots of great things about our new codex (particularly from a Cults perspective), I've written up a provisional 2k list to experiment with - this was written using Battlescribe, as I won't have the codex to hand for another few weeks, so there may be one or two errors to amend.
I should point out that this list is made on the assumption that Reavers are 20pts per model instead of 10pts (I'll put the points listed on Battlescribe in brackets) - if it turns out to be the latter, then I need to find another 120pts (which shouldn't be too much of a problem, as I have an abundance of Scourges). I should also point out that there are a few issues with Battlescribe that means the points are probably a bit lower than expected: main one being that it doesn't count Lelith as a Master Succubus for some reason, so I made the other Strife Succubus a Master to allow it on Battlescribe - but as I said, this is a rough list to give me an idea of what to work with.
So, without further ado, my Cults list:
