There's a lot of dedicated assault units out there that lose out to Pallies. I for one love Incubi, since they bring something truly unique to the DE roster unlike Trueborn. That said I'd only ever field a single unit of them - but I'd like it to be as beefy as possible.

9 Incubi + PGL Archon has worked well for me, as has 8 + Archon + Haemy token.

i love Incubi, i have 15 of the old ones painted up and a squad of 4 blasterborn that use to be incubi with blasters too.

i sometimes run the heavy 8-9 man squad with an archon but its only useful against SOME units and some armies. It is just to killing for most things.

Most of the time i field a 5 man in a venom. Now can 5 in a venom do much? Yes they can take out a large squad of non assaulty Meq or they can at least damage and hold up a assualty meq squad. but their real purpose it so support wyches and wracks. A smart oppenent is going to shoot at the raider full of wyches rather than the venom full of incubi because shooting wyches is just about the best thing in the game. popping the venom and having the remaining incubi hide behind its wrecked hull out of los isnt any fun.

now assualting with a squad of wyches first, then piling in with your incubi will rape most things. the wyches might kill 2-3 with a sarge, then the incubi can do their raping thing. When it comes to counter attacks most of the attacks will end up going against the wyches who are cheap and have a 4++.

I dont care if its paladins or TH SS termites or what. I will fix their position with 7-8 wyvches and then pile 5 incubi onto one model on the end and be confident ill get a good show if not win.


even if some die, 2-3 incubi are still good as they can still support wyches or wracks in combat.
