Just a thought....
Soul Grinders and Demon Princes are the only choice for heavy support demons.... and can bring some anti-tank shooting and MC / dread CC to the list...
but which do you think is more effective (and why?)
If all your armor is three AV13 walkers then wouldn't this be the target of every melta and AT weapon on the board? (especially with such a large deep strike footprint)
To make princes as scary as the grinder is pretty point intensive, and they can be taken down far more easily by torrenting lower S fire... not much of a save to speak of unless you pay the points for the 3+ AS (and how hard is it to get around power armor saves?) and 4++ is basically 50/50 (assuming Tzentch) so again, not very high on the survivability scale
...... still occasionally musing about the possibility of a future demon army... once my patient spouse forgets the sticker-shock of this spring's purchases by both Tommy and I....
(ie: not for a while!)
