As the title reads. What is the killy-est take all comers HQ unit on the table top. No points limit, although it has to be a single model - retinues and honor guards do not count.

I like Lysander. Probably not the killy-est one but definitely my favorite.

Draigo, Lysander, or Mephiston most likely. Abaddon is also up there somewhere.

Marneus calgar but ONLY if he is on top of a giant hill with his fist in the air.

Probably Mephiston.

Mephiston can be ID'ed, while people like Lysander are immune to it. I'm gonna go with a Daemon: Skulltaker. He'll take all non-EW characters on. His favorite Nom-Nom was the Deceiver

I think either Lysander, Mephiston, or Vect, considering there isn't a point limit, so I could give him the Dais + 9 Trueborn with 4 Splinter Cannons.
That, or Aeo'kau'tes

Ghaz. no doubt

It was Mathammered.
Lysander beats Ghaz.

Mephiston Lord of Cheese as he is called by my Eldar playing friend. When he saw Grey Knights, he screamed "CHEESE". When asked about the Eldars cheese, he said

Eldar are meant to be cheesed though!

Sorry, OT, but a rant I had to get of my chest.

The Swarmlord is a possibility, with his ID and re-roll sucessful invul saves.

I dunno, in my last game Draigo&Lib(w/ warding stave) went head to head with a SL with 3 tyrant guard. Force weapons killed 3 tyrant guard, then my terrible friend didn't know the SL was fearless and fled backwards, next turn he got fried by my IG allies melta-vets.

If i remember correclty their was already a thread on this and draigo and vect were the best I believe(btw Draigo hands Mephiston his but on a silver platter)

I don't know non-SM HQs very well as most of the Xeno guys I play are super math based never run special character guys.

For SM- Draigo, Marneus

Special mention of Lysander since he costs 75 less than both of the afore mentioned.

I like my Khorne Lord on a Juggernaut who's never rolled a 1 for his attacks.

Draigo by far even over Mephiston.

Ghazkul mag Uruk Thrakka, Profit uv da WAAAGH!!

Deyz had ta make 'im less killy fer 'balance' rezunz.

At the shop last night we worked it out, Abaddon is still pretty much king.

If we are counting retinues and such it's a whole different ball game.

Again, if we are counting apocalypse, all reason goes out the window.

Ghazghkull. He will pound you into the dirt and you won't even be able to hit him with his 2++ save on the Waaagh!.

Well...it's your friends loss. He should of read in the codex that all synapse reatures are fearless and anyone in synapse.

Well if they have to go by themselves with no back-up, I will have to give it up to one of the Tyranid ones. I don't know them all, but they'd probably be my pic. Some form of monstrous creature, certainly.

Really? I'd like to see that thread.
do you have a link, or should i look it up?

I'm sure it was contingent on the waaagh being used already, and lysander getting the charge.
Meh. I could be wrong, but in my games he's always wiped the floor with whoever im in CC with.

If it was mathhammered, I believe it, though.

Yarrick. He will just get back up when you kill him.

I think it was with both of them already in B2B and Waaagh not being used...
It was a while ago so i don't have the link.

Space pope.

But technically, angron isn't in any force organization chart and this is about "Most deadly HQ Character on the table"
