Great Report thanks for sharing!

Bow down to Guilliman for he is our new God Emperor!

DakkaDakka is really the place where you need anti-tank guns to kill basic dudes, because anything less isn't durable enough.

If I remember correctly, Flyer's and anything with Fly can disengage during movement and still get to take their turn.

Also, it's amazing how many times Ahriman kills himself in the last turn with a perils. It's happened to me twice already.

<FLY> Get to Fall Back and Shoot, but can't charge if I remember correctly.

And yes, Ahriman periled a couple of times - ran out of CPs to use the Command Reroll strategem.

Played a few things wrong - used The Lord of the Thousand Sons special rule w/ Ahriman, which I shouldn't have as he was on a disc which makes him <DAEMON> and <CALVARY>, so he really can't benefit from it. In addition, forgot to use Tenacious Warrior for MWs taken from Perils. But overall it was interesting.

Working on some new FW Chaos models (ie Hell Talon) that we might try in upcoming Battle Reports.

Any thoughts, suggestions on what you'd like to see would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Thoth

I dont know the chaos FW stuff very well, but I've been having large amounts of success with a winged DP and Fist/Scourge Helbrute. The DP especially has been brutal as there are imperial players everywhere. Giving him double talons gives him 7 attacks that hit on 2's, re-roll 1's, and get an extra attack anytime you roll a 6 to hit at -2 AP and 2 damage per hit. He just wrecks things.

Hm, don't have any Daemon Prince models available at the moment, but good to know. Will pick some up and try and incorporate into a list.

DPs are good value for the points.
