With that being said, he neither rolled an 11 or a 2, but he did get +1 to his invuls at one point. The needing 6's to activate the effects of the random god damage is really an equalizer with barely anything happening. <br /><br />Now that being said, I will try out both CSM main and Daemon main and bring back the science behind it. I think there are strengths to running daemons as the main (more fast critters, bigger monsters ect), but I will miss double Heldrakes, haha.TJ Atwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01304177224607153451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-11760235489046753952013-03-13T11:25:22.025-04:002013-03-13T11:25:22.025-04:00You wont be able to claim cover for a Soul Grinder...You wont be able to claim cover for a Soul Grinder behind an Aegis Defence Lince since it's a vehicle it needs at least 25% of facing to be obscured to claim cover.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-50487862245362954282013-03-07T03:30:47.371-05:002013-03-07T03:30:47.371-05:00Oh and from one Nurgle infested gamer to another g...Oh and from one Nurgle infested gamer to another great post.HOTpandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03480850003869609864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-70954326559968400952013-03-07T03:29:29.844-05:002013-03-07T03:29:29.844-05:00I wrote an entire post on Monday outline an all Nu...I wrote an entire post on Monday outline an all Nurgle CSM/Daemon 1750pts army. <br /><br />http://thechaosmanifesto.blogspot.ca/2013/03/monday-musings-of-mantic-1750pts-csm.html<br /><br />I felt that CSM should be the primary detachment for several reasons. First they allow the Daemon side to ignore the fickle winds of chaos table. Two they allow me to take Plague Marines as Troops and third it would allow me to field both Heldrakes and CSM Bikers. I use Daemons as my ally to take advantage of 6th editions liking to hordes and for a durable but cheap troop choice. I delve deeper into the nurgling hole by giving my army two AP3 torrent templates (Heldrake and Nurgle Lord with Burning Brand of Skalathrax), 1 AP3 template (Herald with Primaris Power) and 1 AP3 pie plate (SOuld Grinder). All this adds up to a hammer and anvil strategy that is kills MEQs and GEQs alike.

I even run my DG similarly. <br /><br />I am mulling over Epi in reserves with a fairly big unit of Plaguebearers or Nurglings. I would have 3 Soulgrinders with MoN and Phlegm behind and Aegis with Comms. This would allow me not only a crazy resilient way to protect the Soulgrinders, but a way to rack up the Tally for Epi's arrival and decent anti air. Drones would mark the spot for Epi and more Plaguebearers to arrive via Deep Strike. <br /><br />Just my initial idea, I still need to pore over the book.Dezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05794856460752007480noreply@blogger.com
