I have acquired 30 bloodletters over the years however, I have not found a good way to use them in Apoc yet. Here are a few of my options:

1. Warp Rift - I could use them as Summoned Lesser Daemons. Assaulting out of DS is fun, but their strength and survivability are megafail for apoc.

2. Brotherhood of Blood - I have Kharn, Bezerkers and a Khorne DP I could use for this.... but what's the point? What does this datasheet do that you would not be able to do normally? I don't even know why this exists....

3. Skulltaker's Cohort of Blood - I think I don't have enough for this and when I remember reading it, it was garbage. Almost brotherhood of blood bad.

4. Deploy normally - Such a bad option. They won't be DSing turn 2 and if they DS turn 3 they will likely be BBQpwned upon entry. Then they'll have to sit a whole turn and do nothing. I've done this in the past but they have never come close to winning their points back.


I dunno, which of the 4 do you think is best? Does anyone else have any suggestions as to what I could do with them?

What about Angron and his buddies?
Use 1 Thirster as Angron and then the rest for his retinue...
Though that only takes up about 14 Thirsters IIRC.

I think you are thinking about Bloodthirsters. (I do have 4 but that's beside the point)

I'm talking about the troop choice Bloodletters.

Believe me you can never have too many Thirsters.

Damnit...
It's all the blood, it gets confusing...
You could make your own datasheet.
Ask your opponents if they'll allow it first of course but you can get blank datacheets from the GW site so obviously it's something they wanted when they were thinking apocalypse up.

I could make my own but it would probably be rather beardy-cheesy. Something to make them outflank or assault out of Deepstrike.


Anyone else have a recommendation?
