After the tweaks to the Soul Grinder in Codex:Chaos Daemons, I feel the unit is grossly overvalued for what it can do. As it stands the Soul Grinder is just an expensive Defiler with less firepower. To give a little more flexibility I broke the Soul Grinder into 3 units, the Soul Flayer which is close range focused, the Soul Taster which is a skirmisher, and the classic Soul Grinder which is long range (for daemons) shooty.

Also, the new ranged attacks have a bunch of edge lord names because that is what Chaos loves to do.
