Daemons of Chaos Book - Finally in hand!
At last, finally got my hands on that new Chaos Daemon book. Scanned through last night, will slowly work my way through it over the next few days.
A good read, well thought through, nerfing some of the overpowered units, and really introducing a great element of fun into the Daemons game. I'll probably also bemoan the fact that Fiends have to be in units of 3 now, and that the Masque and Blue scribes has been nerfed. (Thankful I haven't bought the Blue scribes model, nice as it is)
I did invest in the Rot-flies to bolster my nurgle army and the Tzeench Flamer disc. Still have to decide what build will be best.
I really love the element of change and fickleness of magic that has now been introduced to the DoC Armybook. I think it really reflects the nature of the Chaos energy, and how it can buff or damage. Losing a whole unit is not so flash, but I think it fair given the nature of Chaos energies. It adds the fun element of Greenskins without sacrificing decent WS, S or T.
So I'm looking at my options for tonight's game night at the Kapiti Wargames Club:
(Drat: Still have to build my Rot-flies and Flamer Disc)
Thinking
? Possibly 2 or 3 Juggers (not so sure about this yet)
? or Kharnak and hounds, try ambush rule
? Furies
