http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/93.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net I have played a couple games and dont see him as being significantally better than a unit of horrors unless the enemy has some good spell to steal with glean magic.

He cant get off the good spells, the 12 inch one means you are probabally in charge range (but not necessairly) and the lowest lvl magic missile the horrors can fire off better than the hearld can for the same points.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/214315/327560.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/214315/327560.page GMT
Well, the Horrors ultimately get charged by whatever is slogging the board, and then they shield the enemy from magic by being in combat, and give up their VP's when they die. The Herald, by flying, chariot or disk, can evade enemy charges and keep his VP's. A list with 3 mobile heralds and Kairos renders all enemy points spent in fighting infantry worthless. Further, Heralds can bear the various standards, and they can provide power dice to Kairos with power vortex, or take dispel scrolls, or simply be cheaper wizard levels than the equivalent Pink Horrors. Heralds even conserve board real estate better if you are opting for a combined arms approach, as opposed to Pink Horrors, which occupy much more space.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/214315/327731.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/214315/327731.page GMT
Also, if on a chariot/disc, lore of death is pretty nice. Heralds are just a nice 4+ ward save for a unit and give a good tactical edge imo. Cheap access to scrolls too =/.
