Hi folks

The Chaos Daemons' Warlord trait Death Incarnate gives the Warlord's Melee weapons the Instant Death rule.

Would that mean that even after Disarm has been used, the disarmed Melee Weapon still have the Instant Death rule?

As the Warlord trait mentions "Melee weapons", won't it work on Smash attacks?

Yep. Even if he has lost a particular weapon, his remaining weapon(s) will still benefit from the rule.

And yes, Smash attacks will still benefit. (Though they probably will cause ID anyway!)

Will they wouldn't automatically cause Instant Death against an Avatar. That's the bugger I want to kill it in Close combat by my Bloodthirster even if the Avatar has Disarm.

Disarm works on only one weapon, so if the Warlord's got more than one, you can get around it that way.
