Imotekh's Royal Court 75+models

Though the Stormlord prefers to operate without his bickering court of nobles, the situation sometimes dictates that he bring the full might of his closest supporters to bear.

Composition
1 Imotekh
0-10 Lords
0-10 Crypteks
0-1 Nemesor
0-1 Obyron
0-20 Lychguard

Lord of the Storm
Imotekh is capable of wielding weather like a weapon. He does so to great effect, but this tendency can sometimes lead to "anxiety" among his chosen allies. To mitigate this he often limits the full destructive power of the storm to a smaller area. Imo may instead of using his regular Lord of the Storm ability, choose to limit the affect area to a 24" radius.

King among Kings
The Stormlord, being the most powerful of the Phaerons, has a court made of nobles of significant power and only the greatest crypteks.
Each of the lords in the Royal court must have the following changes to their profiles: +1W and +1A at an increase of 10 pts per model
they also have all the options that Overlord's can take.
Each of the Crypteks are upgraded to have a 3+ armor save.

The Bickering Mass
Even with Imo's inspiring presence, the bickering nobles make certain decisions impossible. The unit, if larger than 20 models, may not redeploy via a Clock of Darkness or the Clock of Obyron.

What bonuses do you get from limiting his Storm range to 24"?

You don't, it just doesn't piss off everyone else as much.

I guess you could say that it allows your allies to not be impeded.

The question is, have you ever played an apocalypse game with nightfighting going on?

But other game effects which affect the entire table (Runes of Warding springs to mind) have no such limitation, I don't see why this one should.

Nemesor Zandrekh's name is Zandrekh. There are many Nemesors; it's a title.

Since you put Vargard Obyron in there, I can only presume that's who you meant.

@Valkyrie - I understand, that is why it is an option. I does not limit the effect, it only allows you to take a smaller area instead of larger, thus preventing the game from becoming a massive, massive hassle. The point of Apoc, more than any other format, is to make sure that everyone has fun.

@DarknessEternal - I know, I simply am not using his full name so as to not have to spell his name. This forum tends to make special character titles more colloquial.

I thought I recalled the new version of Imperial Armour Apocalypse recommending limiting unlimited 40k effects to 72inches, which is fair to me depending on the tables you normally play apoc on.

Wow, apparently I got ninja'd by IA Apocalypse.
