Weapons and equipment: Flensing claws and maw (close combat weapon).


SPECIAL RULES: furious charge, fleet.
Chaotic rejuvination: At the start of each of its turns, roll a D6 for each individual member of the unit. On a 5+ the model regains a wound to a maximum of 3.


OPTIONS:
The unit may purchase one of the following marks of chaos:

Hey just so you know accidentally hit 1 instead of 2 when you put in the points cost of your special character. It WAS an accident right? Because I assume that if you're smart enough to know the basic rules of 40k you'd know better than to try and cost a model that gives a whole unit FnP and as he moves between squads the new ones always get it along with a 3+/4++ save, regenerates lost wounds, and has S6 rending attacks (S7 I6 on the charge).... Right?

Chaos Lord = 90 points
-1 WS = -10 points
+1 S = +15 points
+1 T and FnP = +20 points (Mark of Nurgle)
-1 Ld = -5 points
+4++ save = +15 (Mark of Tzeentch)
+1 S and rending weapon = +10 points
Fragmented Reality = + 10 points
- Bolt Pistol and Krak Grenades = -5 points
Defensive grenades = + 5 points
Furious Charge and Fleet = +20 points
Giving the whole unit Feel No Pain = 40 points (if not more)
+ Ability to add new units to field = 10 points ????

However, I think the Elites choice is well balanced. I think against IG you'll find them to be a sad choice as a lot of our weapons are S8 and will make them curl up quickly =) but most other races won't give you as much trouble. Are they supposed to be more crazed but less mutated Possessed Marines or complete abominations or how are they modeled? Might depend on making them a Daemon and having an Invuln save which would be VERY good on their part (and might warrant a 5 point increase) but that all depends on your fluff of them.

Edit'd. Thank you for the feedback, the pts have been changed. The elite are not daemons, but similar so no invulnerable for them.

Is Rag'norra good for you all? Or should I adjust his fluff/crunch some more?

Here are two of my IG creations:

Albrecht Stahlkorp[+90pts] Company Commander

One of the few Krieg soldiers to survive long enough to attain the rank of Company Commander, Stahlkorp has survived many battles. His body is a record of all the conflicts he has participated in. Flesh gives way to iron and blood to oil where, against his protests, Adeptus Mechanicus Medicae personnel have tended to his injuries. Despite his wish for death, his knowledge and experience is too valuable for the Imperium to waste by allowing him to die. To aid in this, a Force Field has been surgically implanted into his spine to prevent him from becoming another casualty in the long attrition wars that the Korp favor. Few have seen his face, which is hidden behind the polished white skull mask of the Death Korp. To the younger Korpsmen, fresh from the Vitae Wombs, he is not a man, but the Bringer of Death, the epitome of the grim stoicism of Death Korp.

Special Rules
IC
Senior Officer
Death March: The determined march of the fanatical soldiers of the Death Korp of Krieg cannot be stopped. Marching perfectly in sync, they let loose volleys of lasfire into the enemy. Guardsmen, Veteran Guardsmen, and Veteran Sergeats gain the Relentless USR when using Lasguns within 12" of his unit.
Towards Death and Atonement!: All allied Imperial Guard units within 12" gain the Furious Charge and Stubborn USRs. In addition, units within 6" have Feel no Pain.


Sarof Anehl[+100pts] Platoon Commander
A survivor of the disastrous Raid on Kastorel-Novem. Anehl was a Junior Officer at the time and survived the sweeping command purges of the upper echelon, the result of the raid's failure. Fighting the orks has made Anehl resourceful and aware of the weaknesses inherent to his regiment's tactics. Using, this experience, as well as observations of the Raven Guard that he fought along side, Anehl leads his men in lightning raids, quickly striking undefended positions and retreating before reinforcements can arise, bleeding the enemy to death.

Death from Above!: Up to half the units in his platoon, rounding down, may arrive by deep strike on the first turn.
Air Cavalry: His Platoon can take Valkyries as a dedicated transport for +10pts above the basic cost.

I'm not sure how balanced the second guy is, especially his Air Cavalry rule. Any thoughts?

Wargear: power armour, boltgun, bolt pistol, frag and krak grenades

Kinetic maul: a weapon now considered archaic, this was once the staple of rank and file commanders who had no access to powered weaponry. This is a close combat weapon. It increases the Strength of the bearer by 1. Any model that suffers an unsaved wound from this weapon but is not killed out right is reduced to Initiative 1 for the duration of the next round of combat. Any vehicle hit by this suffers a Crew Shaken result on a 4+.

Special Rules: ATSKNF, Combat Tactics

Hardened Veterans: Hysos and his squad gain Move Through Cover, Infiltrate, Scout and Stealth special rules

Cool characters. I always liked the Iron Hands for the hardcore tech adherence.

One problem though, a six shot lascannon, no matter if it is heavy or Gets Hot!, is ridiculous.

Maybe heavy 3 or 4 with it getting hot on a 1 and 2?

I recenly painted up some thousand sons and while many people use the standard sorcerer model i made a custom Thousand sons "chaplin" called lok

I later found out that lok was the name of an inquistor so i just linked the character in with his storyline

he was turned to chaos by Tzeench and became a chaplin, the basic storyline for him now

I feel like he doesn't have too much special to him and he's definitely not overpowered so for 180 I'd say he's good and I'd let you field him without any questions or doubt.

Don't think he'd be the Captain, though. Standard Bearers are usually a separate rank than the regular brass.

He's just got a happy flag with him. Nothing wrong with that!

Anvildude wrote:Don't think he'd be the Captain, though. Standard Bearers are usually a separate rank than the regular brass.

He carries the flag in know no fear, one of the horus heresy series books. Atleast I'm pretty sure its that character..

Achranor, the Uber-Wuss....... 150 points

There are stories of a monster, three dozen feet tall with the strength of a thousand men skin harder than Adamantium, with a ferocity and speed that would rival the greatest Daemon. Yet, this beast has been captured and recaptured a dozen times. Why? Because it is the single biggest pansy in the galaxy.

WS10 BS10 S10 T10 W10 I10 A10 Sv 1+
FOC: This model may be taken for any army and takes up a Heavy Support slot.
Unit Type: Monstrous Creature
Wargear: Claws and more claws (Close Combat Weapons)
Special Rules: Worst. Monster. Ever., Rage

Worst. Monster. Ever.: If Achranor is ever injured, it instantly flops over and pretends to be dead. Once it thinks it will not be hurt anymore, it stands back up and continues to fight, though things like "sides" don't mean much to the beast. If your opponent manages to wound Achranor, before rolling for saves, it instantly goes to ground (saves are then rolled after going to ground). Whichever player has models closest to it by the time it may act normally again may then use Achranor as if it was a part of their army.


I was trying to find a way to at least somewhat balance a model with an all 10 statline, but that's nearly impossible in any serious fashion or without a thousand point cost.

I would make it so that it immediately falls back, rolling 4D6 and picking the 2 highest, and can't do anything untill it regroups, after which it can't do anything else that turn.

BTW, MCs can't gtg.

To keep with the All 10 stat line I think you should make it's armor special and say it has to roll UNDER 10 on 2d6 if for no other reason than to say EVEN HIS SAVE STAT IS 10!

felixander wrote:has to roll OVER 10 on 2d6 if for no other reason than to say EVEN HIS SAVE STAT IS 10+!

Fix'd

Yeah but then it'd be neigh impossible for him to save and the whole thing about this critter is that it's invincible. Nothing wrong with making up more rules on it!

Either way your best bet is weapons with Rending. 6s wound no matter what!

Make that one armed, half cybernetic guy. One of those triarchs or quintarchs or whatever they are called. Fighting an unexpected war with one eye and one arm against foes you never imagined fighting against....what a boss.

Brosef looses an arm and an eye and keeps rollin'? I like him =P

To cost him up:
+1 Sv +10
Agoniser +20
Second Agoniser +10
Poisoned +5
Blaster +15
Shadowfield +30
Shadowfield basically having a Phantasm Grenade Launcher +25
Shadowfields FNP +10

So the extra stuff basically costs 60pts not 30. xD

He should be 195, mayhaps make him 200 so it's a nice round figure.
If you make the 'blaster' a psychic shooting attack, then you can probably drop it to 190.

For his fluff... it would make a LOT more sense for the gauntlets to contain the captured spirits of powerful warlocks, rather than his own inherrant psychic power, also being he's a 'young' archon, and mostly trained in CC, I'd be tempted to make him WS8 / BS6 instead of 7/7, similar to the succubi..

So over all you like the fluff and the rules aren't over powered? The only reason his stuff isnt a psychic shooting attack is for the same reason that a warlocks powers arent. He uses them in the same way. And while his psychic powers may be atrophied, that isnt to say that some mysterious creature... *ahemlaughinggodahem* couldn't have reawakened what is buried there. The point of the gauntlets was to use what was already there, and allow the archon to access what he had lost the natural reflexes to do so with. OH, and mandrakes are tied into this whole deal Who got him out of the Dark City? And where do you think he got his shadow cloak from?

I was wanting to price him for around 230 tbh. (I forgot to say that all the basic wargear listed should be considered) And I was bone tired at the time I posted it which is why I had so many spelling and grammar mistakes.

Also, I hadn't considered the 2D6 save. That'll do nicely.
