Subject: Who is the best WoC character from the new book?

Monstrous Master Moulder

This thread is simple, pick your favourite character from the WoC book, as this is in the fluff section, please pick the one with the most interesting background, not the best rules
I picked Vilitch because I'm a Tzeentchite!
N.B the 'My One!' category refers to the Chaos Lord/Sorceror/DP that you have made yourself

I love Kholek, how can you not? I've always like Dragon Ogres, and this guy is a Dragon Ogre Shaggoth character, it's perfect! He's got T6, 8 Wounds and a 2+ save, 8 Attacks and Strength 8. Even better, on a 2+ an enemy unit on the board takes D6 Strength 6 hits. On a 1, it strikes him and he becomes subject to Frenzy. His weapon causes D3 Wounds. To summarise, this guy kicks ass.

Vilitch is really cool against magic heavy armies, because you get so many power/dispel dice in your pile it's not funny.
|
People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made. |

I voted Vilitch because he's the best overall character (his special rules has been named by my and my mates, "Vilitch says no"),
Purely on background though, gotta be Valkia, bride consort of Khorne half bloodletter, yes please, and lets face it being a bloke i'd probably tap that

I, of course, being the slobbering, drooling, halfwitted creature I am, voted for Throgg.
Why? because a king of trolls is just simply awesome.
erm, I wouldn't tap Valkia 99Mdeery, for only three reasons
1. Khorne'd get mad
2. Wasn't she "reconfigured"?
3. A Daemon Prince tried to "seduce" her. now he's a pretty looking shield. I don't wanna end up being like, a doormat er somthing

Valkia!!! Ever heard of khorne getting pissed that someone died!!! Ever heard of him resurrecting anyone for any reason! It goes so totally away from what he would normally do. If the blood god goes totally away from the mantra "Blood for the Blood god!!! and starts raising women from the dead, gotta say thats one hot chick!!!  That makes her just crazy cool IMHO.

I"m voting Kholek- I like the idea of the sun hiding it's face in shame at the bargain the Dragon Ogres made. I'd love to make an army where all the mortals worshipped Kholek as a god in his own right. Storm heralds or something like that.
If it was based on models, I'd probably go Wulfrik though. He's an outstanding sculpt.

Exactly! Her fluff makes me want to start a WoC army.

Kholek, come on, he's Godzilla. He rolled up on Praag and smashed the temples, while Archaon was getting headbutted by an orc.

All in all, fact is that Warhammer 40K has never been as balanced as it is now, and codex releases have never been as interesting as they are now (new units and vehicles and tons of new special rules/strategies each release -- not just the same old crap with a few changes in statlines and points costs).
