Nottingham (yay!)

I've seen nice conversions with Daemonettes and Gargoyle wings. Either would fill a Slaaneshi infantry-shaped hole in my Word Bearers' allies.

I5 and scoring is cool. So's 8pt S4 Rending Jump Infantry. Both of them Run real fast.

In my particular context, I'm planning to have a Slaaneshi Warp Talons unit; expensive, but cool. Bit of Fearless mobile cover will come in handy, and a bucket of Rending will help if a Terminator unit shows up, all of which suggests Furies are good for me. Plus, they can pull apart anything short of a Land Raider or Dread.

If you can make them look good, I'd try the Furies. I think half their problem is that the models look dumb, and not many people are willing to pay for them. Also, their LD of 2 means that if they fail combat at all, it's probably going to be an all or nothing roll.

On the upside, they are very cheap fast attack units that can have rending, so you could just divebomb them into termies and hope that the dice gods look favorably upon you.

Since you need minimum one troops for allies, I'd go with daemonettes, they are seriously quite fierce in the new book for their points, chew through most everything with ease with a 20 model unit, even without a herald.

But, you could have 1 unit of daemonettes, and one fast attack unit of furies in your allies, with a slaanesh herald as the mandatory HQ to buff the daemonettes. That way, you can deep strike the daemonettes, and let the furies use their mad movement (12 inch movement phase, d6+3 run) To get where you need them

I hadn't considered the 'and' option tbh. I'm trying to take something from every god in my allies, so loads of stuff from one god wasn't on my mind.

I dig BoNs, so with only one FA slot available I reckon I'll start with Daemonettes. Furies can accompany Nurglings when my force expands.
