Does he have an Attack value?

Diablo, the Prime Evil - 987 points

WS1 BS2 S8 T4 W4 I3 A1 Ld8 Sv4+

Independent Character, Monstrous Creature

Bone Cage: After assault moves, but before attacks are made, each model in base contact with Diablo, the Prime Evil rolls a D6. On a 7+, that model takes a wound with no saves. Seriously, you have to be slowed to get hit by this.

Fire Nova: During the Shooting Phase, place the large blast template centered on Diablo, the Prime Evil. Enemy models under the blast template take an S3 hit, but ignore its results on a roll of 2+. This thing does nothing, don't even bother trying to dodge it.

Channel Lightning: Shooting attack with the following profile: Range: 12" S10 AP1 Assault 10*. *Roll the dice one at a time. If you miss, the attack gets no more shots this turn, as your opponents' models simply walk around it.

Clone: When reduced to 3 wounds, replace Diablo, the Prime Evil with an exact copy that only has 2 wounds. When this copy dies, replace it with Diablo, the Prime Evil at 3 wounds. This happens once per game.

You're sort of big to be teleporting around like that: Diablo, the Prime Evil simply moves anywhere on the board in the movement phase, except for within 1" of your opponents' models, or impassible terrain you can't balance him on.

The Prime Evil: This guy takes forever to die, and as such has Eternal Warrior and Feel No Pain. Power Weapons and weapons that ignore armour saves are treated as if they were regular attacks with an AP value of -. He's also a Daemon, but weapons and abilities that affect daemons only work on a 4+ each time they're used.

Seriously, don't even waste your time on this guy: The loot Diablo, the Prime Evil drops is terrible, not even properly leveled. Just don't even bother killing him - he's worth 2 kill points to your opponent if he's alive at the end of the game.

Oh missed that out,

Yeah he has an attack value of 4

Marshal Victus
Unit Entry:
Victus a man who is said to put his creed and honor before his very soul, has been known as a unorthodox leader even by Templar standards. Victus is known for such devotion to the ideals of this chapter that it has been reported that he would have his men open fire on Imperial Guard units that were thought to be lead by psykers, as well as units that were either comprised or consisted of mutants. He has been quoted saying the only place for any of these heretics is piloting ships, or burning on a stake let them choose. Victus is also a master of close combat embracing the doctrine of his chapter perhaps a little to much Victus has been known to charge headlong into enemy gunlines rather then have his men return fire, because of this only the most zealous of Templars fight alongside him. Victus is instantly recognizable on the battlefield by his dual power axes shredding the enemies of man by the dozens.

Keeper of the Creed: If fielding Victus as a HQ choice, the entire army gains the ability to roll 2D6 on a Righteous Zeal consolodation, however you cannot re-roll this even though Crusader Seals.

Unmatched Fury: Victus is such a zealous combatant in close combat that he has a reputation for ignoring would be wounds. Though this roll a D6 for every Hit Victus takes in Close Combat on a 6+ the hit is ignored.

Unrelenting Purge: Victus's hate for any blights on the Imperium of Man is so much so that when a Black Templar unit is within 6" of a ally unit fielding a Psyker or Mutant that unit must take a Leadership test, if passed the units act normally however if the test is failed that turn the Black Templar unit must shoot at but not assault that ally unit. This rule only excludes the Grey Knights.

OK so he's not a an Independent Character, can't shoot as he has no Ballistic skill nor a shooting weapon (he should at least have a Sluggah, especially for a Warboss who gives Flashgitz as troops), for some reason a wooden leg gives him a 4+ invuln save(?), and having orks stand by the guns lets a Trukk fly over a 5 story building... how? Plus the way it's worded all vehicles become Skimmers for 15 points total, rather than 15 points per vehicle. Needs some serious rethinking and tinkering to make sense. Please clarify these points. Add IC, a Ballistic skill, better explanation why a peg leg gives him 4+ invuln (Either that he has extensive cybernetic plating or a mini Kustom Force Field generator in the peg leg), and reword All 'ands Man Da Cannons! Also I'd advise making Da Hook and his peg leg being seperate pieces of wargear rather than a conglomeration of two different things that two different things. Please

so yeah, this is what Abaddon should be

Abaddon the Despoiler

Type: Infantry (unique)

300 points

WS7 BS5 S4 T4(5) W4 I6 A4 Ld10 Sv2+

Wargear: Terminator armour

Talon of Horus and Drach'nyen: +D6 attacks per turn, doubles Strength, can re-roll all failed to wounds. Includes a twin-linked bolter

Special Rules: Fearless, Independent Character, Preferred Enemy (all!)

Master of the Black Legion: 10 man units of Chaos Marines, Terminators or Raptors get the Icon of Chaos Glory for free. No other Icons may be selected in the army.

Blessing of the Chaos Gods: Eternal Warrior, stat bonuses included in stat line, 3+ invulnerable save

He's an Ork. Orks have BS 2. You don't even really need to bother writing it out.

And that can't change? He is a special character. And following the norm is no excuse for laziness or omission!

Not for Orks! Sure, you could have a bit of wargear, an 'aiming Grot' or something that would allow him to hit on 4's, but the inherent BS of an Ork is 2.

So you're trying to tell me no Ork could ever have a Ballistic skill of 3? or 1? I think nothing is impossible, even for an Ork!

Hmm... I like the idea about conferring his special rule.

Huh, didn't notice that I hadn't put the wounds in.

Ok I have created my first special character, thanks to the layout plan Ovion gave me. I'm not that good at judging if they are balanced though as I just like fighting armies that look cool and don't care much about points. Well here is the first:

Archon Helegan Rose 'The Lost Maiden'.

Pts: 200

WS BS S T W I A Ld Sv
7 7 3 3 3 7 4 10 5+

Unit Type: Infantry

Wargear: Plasma Grenades, Kabalite Armour, Punch Dagger (off-hand CC wep).

The Fractured Soul: To represent the strange power of the trans-dimensional being who exists within her slender frame, Archon Rose is completely immune to the effects of Psychic powers, as is any unit she joins.

The Maiden's Bane: Helegan Rose has gained a mighty weapon imbued with a malign and blood thirsty sentience during one of her many real-space raids. The Maiden's Bane is a power weapon. Furthermore, it makes two bonus attacks every round of combat (roll these seperatly). If any double is rolled for these attacks when rolling to hit, the sentience inside the blade rebels - the two attacks miss automatically and no more of these bonus attacks maybe made for the rest of the game.

Beast Petals: Archon Rose has command over the monsters that lurk in the Slums of Commorragh. You may take squads of 3 - 10 Ur-ghuls as an alternate Troop choice for your army and if a Court is chosen for Archon Helegan Rose, it may consist of only Ur-Ghuls.

Special Rules: Fleet, Night Vision, Power from Pain, Independent Character, Invulnerable Save (4+).

Precognisant: Archon Rose is always one step ahead of her enemies. After both sides have been deployed, the Dark Eldar may redeploy D3 Units in the army, including placing them in reserve.

This is my first character and I used Lady Malys as a base for my altered rules, adding in her special troops for extra points but mostly leaving her the same. The urghul troops are just the same as the court versions and this just means that if accepted I could field an army of Ur-ghuls lead by 'The Maiden', which I think would look amazing.

Tell me what you think.

Agreed......

Ye I will probably fiddle around with the Special rules, Wargear and probably give her some more unique stuff, but do you feel that the Ur-Ghul army is a good idea? Would you like to fight an army with squads of them in?

They're basically slightly worse, more expensive wracks from what I remember.

I have no problem with it. Plus without a LOT of conversion work you're looking at around £95 for each 150pts of Ur-Ghuls.

Frankly, I'd replace rules rather than just remake Malys, to better reflect the twisted nature that draws her to Ur-Ghuls (And I'd say Mandrakes too.)

I've come up with heaps of ideas in the past, but i've never got to use them. plus if i do people may think im turing into Mark (guy who plays 40k)
