So that's a auto 6 blood tithe points 2nd turn, which is almost a auto free prince and bloodthirster. I'd really would be surprised to not have the 1 extra point needed with all the large blasts I'm dropping, and a secondary effect per slaughter cult which is nice since maby I don't want them all to have the same rewards.

I don't believe the slaughter cult free tithe per turn stacks, also you can't use the extra free ability from the slaughter cult to summon anything, it specifies that the free ability has to cost 4 or less point. Aswell the summoned thirster is a waste of points, no matter the wording in the book it's the general ruling by most stores and tourneys that it has to arrive swooping, meaning even if you dropped it turn 2 you'd have to land it turn 3 then turn 4 it can assault if it hasn't been shot to bits.

Heralds are not named characters. They are generic demon characters. Skulltaker is the named herald. I think blood tithe is better spent summoning more bloodletters or khorne hounds and spending the free ability on FNP or extra attacks.

"Because the Wolves kill cleanly, and we do not. They also kill quickly, and we have never done that, either. They fight, they win, and they stalk back to their ships with their tails held high. If they were ever ordered to destroy another Legion, they would do it by hurling warrior against warrior, seeking to grind their enemies down with the admirable delusions of the 'noble savage'. If we were ever ordered to assault another Legion, we would virus bomb their recruitment worlds; slaughter their serfs and slaves; poison their gene-seed repositories and spend the next dozen decades watching them die slow, humiliating deaths. Night after night, raid after raid, we'd overwhelm stragglers from their fleets and bleach their skulls to hang from our armour, until none remained. But that isn't the quick execution the Emperor needs, is it? The Wolves go for the throat. We go for the eyes. Then the tongue. Then the hands. Then the feet. Then we skin the crippled remains, and offer it up as an example to any still bearing witness. The Wolves were warriors before they became soldiers. We were murderers first, last, and always!" —Jago Sevatarion

It does if there different detachments, if you have two different Lvl one pykers do you only produce one? That detachment produces it's own, I am not limited in the amount of detachments I can take, so I'm taking 3 full blood host detachments which each produce a tithe point at the beginning of my turn before I choose if I'm spending any, why would it not? Now if it were like a loyalist army getting a command benifit that buffs the detachment , it doesn't matter so it doesn't come up but it is a production and not in something that is exclusive to a detachment but that effects me the player and my pool of points.

And yes it seems like a waist, but in fact I get the prince on foot and have the chance fir some one to not know that he will not be assaulting but vector striking and using his whip and try to focus on him a bit instead of anything else.....and for 30 points the whip and vector striking guy is alright.

So .. you have blood points sure.. but, really are the blood points going to help? Who are you turning into a daemon Prince?

At least with the slaughter cults you can summon a unit and still get fnp.

I still have slaughter cults, slaughter cult is a faction within a detachment so I get those benifit too, and the khorne lord the only one it makes sense to. but one of the best thing about 3 different slaughter cults Is I can give the cult with most units already in combat feel no pain ( as either my extra or in addition to +1 I'd I'm not summoning)) and summon, while I give the cult with more units about to assult the +1, and the 3rd what ever I felt like giving me more versatility.
