Here's some more thoughts on daemons:
HQ:
Fateweaver (a lord of change is one of the best / most survivable flying MC in 6th due to the shooting and 3++, however as soon as you start adding gifts, it becomes the same cost as just bringing fateweaver, who is even more survivable)
Herald of Khorne: juggernaut, unholy might, blessings of the blood god (allows the crushers to still wound allocate)
Troops:
10 plaguebearers
10 plaguebearers
Elite:
5 blood crushers
5 fiends
5 fiends
Fast:
3 screamers (because 3 attacks at S5 armorbane are awesome!)
3 screamers
3 screamers
Heavy:
Plague hulk of nugle (permanent 5+ cover AND invul!)
Soul grinder with phlegm
Soul grinder with phlegm

Pardon my ignorance but what is a plague hulk?
2 troops going to be enough objective holders?

It's the imperial armor soulgrinder... which has a demonic ward save and a 5+ cover save... couple extra perks...

looks interesting, the super soul grinder sounds pretty cool. im also wondering if 2 units of troops will be enough with how many objective missions there are, although you have two covered with fast and heavy choices since during the heavy or fast can score ones you have 3 units in both heavy and fast so

If you have 3 from a none troop slot can they now claim objectives?
I am just trying to understand that one statement

If you have 3 from a none troop slot can they now claim objectives? I am just trying to understand that one statement One mission allows fast attack to score as well as troops, and another allows heavy support to score as well as troops. Also if you're trying to skimp on points in the troop slot Shannon you're better off running 4 units of 5 as they have a smaller footprint and are easier to hide. Edit : It has Fateweaver.. hate it. |

Edit : It has Fateweaver.. hate it. lol... was going to bring a lord of change... but he's MORE expensive than fateweaver! I still might though... T5 and one leadership test away from running off the board is not exactly reliable... plus it's not like a 6" bubble is easy to maintain when you're zooming.... I mainly thought that it needed a flying MC... the only good flying MC's are those that shoot (as you can remain zooming, vector strike and fire two weapons)... so that leaves either daemon princes or LOC/Fatey |
