Incubi gotta be up there, hi init power weapons at str 4 with a 3+ save is good, a big unit of charging hormagaunts are brutal on the charge as well

5 Black Templar Terminators with 5 TH/SS, 2 CML, Tank Hunters USR, and the Preferred Enemy vow.

Wychs and Bloodbrides. 15 man wych squad is 4 PW attacks that wound on 4+ regardless, 3 hydras can net you up to an extra 18 attacks every round, Init 6, can get FnP and FC, and with the right drug roll, they can be S5 on the charge, have another attack each, increased WS for easier hitting, wound reroll. all for 10 pts each.... or 13 pts each as Bloodbrides. if you get some decent rolls for drugs and hydras, those 10 Init 6 bloodbrides or the 15 Init 6 wyches can toss out 70+ attacks before most other units even get to swing.... sorry, I may not have a high strength normally, but with 70 attacks, im bound to cause ALOT of wounds just through statistics.....

Inquisitorial Warbands

4xDeath-Cult Assassins, 5xCrusaders, 3xArco-Flagellents

On the charge:
16 S4 I6 PW attacks
10 S3 PW attacks
15 S5 WS5 attacks

T3 stinks, but there are 5 stormshields and it's not bad for 180 points. You can also mount them up in a Chimera or a Rhino(with Fortitude).

10 BT terminators, 5 with TH/SS and 5 with lightning claws With the +1 strenth vow (S10 termies!), 3++ to land wounds on amd and lC's to land wounds before the enemy attack AND S10 hitting the survivors int the face, rerolling failedhts as well.

That is a whole lot of close combat nasty.

you can't take 2 vows, either +1 str or preferred enemy and it doesn't stack with FC

To get it right Furious charge, 5 LC, Accept Any Challenge vow

Re rolling failed hits and wounds, I5, S5 on the charge, scary

Marbo.

Fiends of Slaanesh, or Bloodcrushers. If you can get them to the target without getting shot up, they will ruin your day

If a destroyer body lord with res orb, monolith and tomb spyder are in support range, a wraith wing comes in pretty strong and deadly

Ymgarl Genestealers

Ork Nobz

Tyranid Warriors

Wyches

QFT. BT assault termies wreck face whenever they get the charge on anyone.

yeah... i know that from experience. one took out my two squads of ork boys with very little effort. i hate those blood talons.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
i think ork nobs with big choppas and power klaws. furious charge with st 6 then st 8 hits. all while hitting 4 times per model. oh yeah.

BLOODTHIRSTER!

New death cult assassins:

12 in a squad each with 4 POWER WEAPON attacks on the charge (48 attacks) at str 4 initiative 6 for 15 points each, thats pretty good.

Going to have to go with Black Templar Terminators. Not only do the get Perferd Enemy thanks to the Emperors Champion, they can also get Furious Charge as an upgrade, making them all that nastier in CC. A Squad of 7x w/5x Lightning Claws and 2x w/Thunder Hammers & Storm Shields lead by a Chaplian does a lot of hurt, even more so with the Black Templars being fixed when it comes to certain items and point costs.

Harlequins-WS5, tons of attacks kisses and PWs Troupe Leader, and you're in trouble!!!

Daemonettes.
Squad of 20, 4 attacks on the charge=80 total, all rending, I6 so likely to go first and a 5+ inv save.

Black Templar Neophyte or initiate..that's some pretty scary stuff guys...lets not get in front of those guys.

Just curious, why would you run the Chaplain in there? They already have rerolls thanks to the Champion and LCs. Go for a TH/SS termie marshal with adamantine mantle IMO. That'll show the filthy xenoes and the ones who question our loyalty!

Just cause no one mentioned a points limit:

Brood of three carnifexes with adrenals 15 S10 MC attacks (re-rolling misses) at I4 on the charge for 510 points ( I think).

I second that one, Daemonettes can be horrible in close combat! especially if you get a bunch of rends!

Maxed out platoon of Commissars and Sergeants with power weapons. The front line gets 30 power attacks on the charge with 45 wounds to mow through before you start to get into the power weapons.

And if you're talking DKoK, those power attacks are Power fists.
Sure, it's 625 points, but who cares?

Harliquins.... for sure

Also what about a Destroyer lord w/ orb and warsytch in a squad of wraiths? Thats alot of killing on the charge.

Also an squad of TH/SS Termies w/ Lysander in it.

Does 2 Deamon Princes w/ MoN wings and Warptime count as a unit? Yes they do. The HQ unit.

I'd comfortably throw my Necron Wraiths at anything I've seen in here.

9 wraiths, STR6 I6, with a 3+ invulnerable save, a 4+ WBB, a second 4+ WBB if the first one fails, getting support from a Necron Lord who bypasses Armour and Invul saves...

They teleport out of combat every Necron turn so that they can charge back in.

Remember Dash no supporting units or IC's that aggainst the rules, only the base squad and upgrades for the squad.

Death Company, 30 guys w jump packs, lamarties (he is a unit upgrade), 15 power weapons, 15 thunder hammers, 15 plasma pistols, and 15 infernus pistols. 2000+ points of death lol.

So scout them, and then reserve them, that means they can flank? Interesting. Did not know that.

Deathcult Assassins of course.
