looks pretty tough for sure.. I'm assuming herald joins flamers who drop first wave with grinder? do you have points for breath on the herald (basically makes him an HQ flamer with a better save than his buddies)
if you get your preferred wave you've basically provided a mess for the person's target priority, and pretty much protection for your word bearers if they go after the daemons... vice versa if they try and ground your vehicles (not an easy task with a landraider in there)
so yeah, I can anticipate a pretty brutal turn 2-3 for your opponent once you hit position...

yeah I was thinking about breath on my herald but its XXX pts so Im not sure if its better for him just to take shoot and die for his buddies... yes preffer will be grinder and flamer.

lessons learned from todays tournament:
- Dragon autocannon pretty bad - Flamers kick ass - Possesed rock for a second tournament in a row so I dont think they are that bad.

Dragon autocannon pretty bad Am I allowed to say I told you so? Otherwise, I don't know who was saying possessed are bad, but after looking at their statline and cost, they are pretty decent. Obviously they aren't a super-deathstar, but that's not what you want them for.

Yeah I didnt really argue on the Helldrake just wanted to try and know I confirmed its bad...
Possesed are good but like you said its not super-deathstar just a cool WB choice. If you dont play WB there is better choice.
Flamers are just insane its ridiculous. I played chaos typhus list second game and my flamers killed Typhus 25 zombies 3 Oblit and 1 vindicator in 4 turns...

Yeah, deamons are just insane atm, hopefully the updated units will balance out in the update in the spring, because right now their statline is just super-OP. I think deamons are losing EW for sure in their update.

yeah flamers are awesome, wounding like poison and no cover or armour saves is pretty awesome.
i think EW is going to be rare in the new edition once they do some books
