Would this be a good thing to do? Re-rolls on warpstorm table(fateweaver), with a +1 -1(formation bonus) combined with paradox (artifact )flipping die? fluffy too?

I don't get your point. Ok Fatey is powerful still and in my opinion underpriced for what he does. Thank god for that. I don't get you about the formations as you don't mention what to take for basic and aux in order to get the decurion benefits. Plus where are you going to take paradox? 2nd daemon lord or HoT?

Killing is easy. Being politically correct is a pain in the ass...

That's nice and all, but you have to take at least 1 terrible and expensive formation (plus a tax of a unit of furies or kharanak) to get the +/- 1, then a CAD for something to actually take the good units so you can achieve anything.

Fatey is already good enough for warpstorm control IMHO, the +/- 1 for the daemoncurion is so fateweaver isn't quite so mandatory that anyone crazy enough to run those terrible formations can have a chance at not auto-losing whever they roll a 4.

Paradox is nice, but fateweaver can't take it, and while it means you can ensure invis goes off, unless you're sinking points into belakor, you're not going to get it everygame and there's not much else other than possibly cursed earth (that you can brute force anyway since it's WC1) or maybe summoning / incursion / str D prismatic spray depending on the situation, and even then, doesn't Paradox only work for the model who's holding it and fateweaver can't take it (or any other relic for that matter).

yeah.. I;'ve tried putting a list together for this kind of idea. It lacks a certain punch.
Just not sure I can work with the core formations.

1750 ish

belakor
kairos
LoC w/ a bunch of stuff

Well it would be a 75% chance to get the +1 invuln every turn. Those are nice odds. Are you sure about the artifact though from what i've been reading it only works for spells.

If you are right you would not even have to go very tzeentch to get it. You could take the slaanesh, or nurgle cores for cheap, and put the paradox on a daemon prince.

Actually, with both Kairos reroll and the +1/-1 from the Incursion, it's a little bit less than 53% of chance of getting the +1 invul if you are really fishing for it.

It's LoC and Heralds only. No DP sadly :-(

75% was based on the paradox being able to flip the dice since the OP seemed to alluding to it working on the warp affirm table.

Paradox has nothing to do with the Warp Storm, it's only used on psychic powers

Which is what I originally said but since op was alluding to it working I thought it was possible there was something I didn't know and calculated the percent anyways.
