I don't have my rule book on me at the moment, but I was hoping I could get some clarification on here. A friend and I were discussing the drawbacks to taking a Khorne Lord on a Juggernaut.

It seems that since he's on a monstrous cavalry mount, if he were in a Knights of Chaos unit, he could be sniped.

Is this the correct interpretation of the RAW?

If this is the case, would he get the 'Look out sir!' with the two inch rule?

If he is not the same troop type as the unit he is with, then he would not get a LoS!

Chaos Knights = Calvary. Lord on a Jugger= Monstrous Calvary. Therefore, no LoS!

Take charmed shield, charge quick, profit.

I was hoping that we missed something that cancelled out that ruling!

As Hoverboy said, the Charmed Shield is an easy way of preventing him being sniped, especially since a Charmed Shield is cheaper than buying a normal shield for a Chaos Lord

You could give the knight unit the +1 movement banner to get em from point a to b faster.

But no los for the lord as was said above the charmed shield.

I think the most effective anti-artillery magic armor is actually the Crimson Armor of Dargan. Then a cannon does a maximum of one wound per shot, even if you fail your ward (I assume you took a ward).

The rig I'm currently planning to run is Halberd, Juggernaut, Armor of Dargan, Dawnstone, Helm of Many Eyes. This guy travels around with a unit of tz shield warriors who carry the blasted standard. An absolute beast in combat and requires at least three cannon shots to kill even if he fails every ward.

Dragon ogres are monstrous Calv.... Just saying

Monstrous Beasts, according tot he rule book

Nope, monstrous beasts.

Damn... sad day indeed.... Been playing that wrong along time then!

But ya sucks to hear the jugger isnt getting much love.

You can fit 5 juggers in a 2.5k list if I am not mistaken.
