    I would think that a skaven army led by a greyseer on screaming bell would be up there..

    Then you could have a tzeentchian lord, and 3 exalted champs.

    HE with banner of sorcery can also have lots of casting dice

    And yes, Skaven would possibly be the highest:
    grey seer on screaming bell (6)
    three engineers with full magic gear (6)
    base dice (2)
    give an engineer the eye of the horned one (1)
    That's already a whopping 15
    But don't forget: we can have lots of warpstone tokens. With this list, the max would be 21 tokens, but that's with taking every point on tokens.
    Maximum dice in one phase with Skaven in 2000: 36
    I dare anyone to really field that list!

    *edit* Also, I guess all the skaven wizards will be dead by the end of the first phase due to abuse use of warp-lightning

    wouldn't count warpstone tokens as they are one use, just dice generated permanantly, not warpstone tokens, power stones and other items

    and to skavenguy13, heres a cookie, beardy SOB

    *hands skavenguy 13 a cookie*

    Has to be the tzeentch chariot army, like 135 points per chariot geteing an extra PD for each it has to be the max PD army. even if it is lame as hell

    The Lizardmen attempt

    Slann 2nd Gen: (4)
    Oh and one for every spell it casts (1-5)

    3 x Lvl 2 Skink shamans: 2 apiece (6)

    Diadem of power allows you to save two Dispel dice from turn before (2)

    So it could get an effective 17 every turn
    (You would have to use all 5 of the Slann Spells to do so)

    tzeech chariot makes the most long term dice skaven 1 turn dice. But the skaven leaves you with a aless efective army thank the chariots.

    just my thought

    Orc and gobbos can get way more than 19 dice.

    2 base, 4 for a lord wizard, 6 for three slave wizards, thats 12 so far and then have one with the staff of sneaky stealing so thats another dice making it 13 and then one more for every unit of gobbos over 30 and every unit of orcs over 20that are in combat and within 12" of a shaman. As the gobbo units are 60 points each and the orc units 80 points you can get a buggery load of units!
    Capitalization is the difference between

    "Helping your uncle Jack off a horse"

    And

    "Helping your uncle jack off a horse"

    Yeah, but they have to be in battle to have extra dice, which means a lot less in the fist turns.

    As for my Skaven attempt, sure it's only once (then you *only* have 14 per turn), but just imagine. That's about 9D6 S5 hits, plus plague, plus death frenzy, plus....

    Which leaves your opponent with less than half of his army if you're not that unlucky... after 1 single turn

    Let's see:
    Exalted Chaos Sorceror 4 PD
    Dark Emissary 4PD
    2 lvl 2 Bray shaman 4PD (lvl2 chaos sorcerors work too....)
    Power familiar 1PD
    8 Tzeentch Chariot +8PD

    That's 23 PD with 75 pts left for equipment/bound items, etc. Fun stuff!

    I managed 22 without the Dark Emmissary

    9 chariots of Tzeench 9pd
    Great bray shaman 4Pd
    2 bray Shaman 4pd
    Exhaulted Champion Tzeench 2pd
    Power Familiar 1pd

    and leaving 85 points to spend too, just enough for a tuskgor chariot for a shaman to ride in

    you can get 20PD with Tzn chariots and champions, not to mention only 6 models in total.

    6 chariots, 4 with heroes & lords in them. SICK.
