So my Deathwing needs a second HQ to accompany Belial...what to take?
-Librarian. Basic DA libby is only LD9 which nerfs the Psychic hood somewhat. Powers seem kinda lame compared to uber-cheese what the newer books have, though I suppose Force Barrier could be useful in soaking up Lascannon wounds etc. Also kinda costly, though stats are better than Codex Marines variant. BS5 is nice for ever-useful combi weapons.
-Chaplain. Obviously he would boost the termies close combat abilities, for quite reasonable cost. I'm also tempted to take jump pack, in the case I need to detach the Chaplain for some solo work.
-Interrogator-Chaplain. Chappy with a Termie armour and extra wound...but more cost too.
-Ezekiel. Table-wide Ld10 Psychic Hood? Oh yeah! But his powers don't seem that great and man, his wargear is hella-weak. 170 points for Master-Crafted bolt pistol?
-Azrael. Well, he does seem like decent CC character. I also think that the mini is awesome. But the points cost is way high for me.
So at this point, I'm thinking about Chaplain with a Jump-pack and Combi-weapon, but I'm open to other ideas. I don't plan to get any Ravenwing, so Sammael is out, though.
