Hay guys,

So i dont have a chaos demons dex in front of me and was wondering if any 1 can tell me what the rules for bloodcrushers are in relation to:

1) Can a Chaos lord on Juggernaut join their unit? im pretty sure he cant but i just wanted to check the wording.

2) Chaos lord juggers are standard cavalry 12" move, fleet. I had it in my head that bloodcrushers moved like standard infantry aka 6" move rather than true cavalry. T/F ?

Cheers

I don't recall a reason why Lords couldn't join the unit. They are battle brothers after all, but the CSM Judder is cavalry while the daemon ones are infantry so it would slow him down.

Page 27 – Daemonic Rivalry.
The second paragraph should be changed to: “Independent characters in this list cannot join units of Daemons belonging to a different Chaos God, units of Furies of Chaos, or any allied units. Equally, allied independent characters may never join units chosen from Codex: Chaos Daemons”.

thanks guys.

Is a Lord on a juggernaut still an independent character? It just says that a juggernaut "changes unit type to cavalry" so no longer independent character

Ha... i guess so- well that will b a gear in the works for all the people runnign beasts / bikes with them...

"Independent Character" is a special rule, not a unit type. Changing his unit type to Cavalry removes his IC rule no more than taking a Chaos Bike does.

Yeh i checked that last night and logged on just now to update. Cheers tho

So is he cavalry (character) or just cavalry? Might be an interesting way to dodge the must challenge rule

Still has the Independent Character rule, so still a Character. No dodging this.

why would you want to put him with bloodcrushers anyway lol the coolest part of putting him on a mount is making him cavalry bloodcrushers are infantry

Theyve got such big bases i figure from behind them to in front of them would be 12"...
