Hey Guys,

I have been playing a Khorne daemonkin game yesterday and there is one question that I cannot seem to find an answer for.

I have never played a bloodthirster before and since they are a central part of this book I need to understand something.

When building my army in Army builder, they clearly state that the bloodthirsters are all eternal warriors, that being said, I cannot see this in the codex. I might have overlooked something, I am very new to this codex and bloodthirster.

Can anyone please shed some lights on this?

Always trust your rulebook and codex over what an unofficial 3rd party program tells you.

If you're ever unsure about which rules apply to a model, check:
1. The datasheet (army list entry in the codex).
2. The rules for that unit's Unit Type in the rulebook.

oh I do trust the codex 100% over an app, I was just wondering if I missed something.

I must have secretly hoped he was indeed an eternal warrior.

Daemons used to be Eternal Warrior across the board, but no longer. So maybe someone forgot to take that line of code out of Army Builder?

Bloodthirster is T6 anyway so there is no need for eternal warrior as S10 is the highest a stat can go

There are still ways to inflict instant death, such as Force

force weapons being highly effective vs deamons however makes a lot of sense. given the Grey Knights are willing to spring for it on all their weapons
