<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Chaos daemons army need some help"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/14.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Chaos daemons army need some help 40k since my friends play it and have been asking that i play it as well. i looked at each of the codex's and decided that being an unable to be insta killed daemonic jerk sounded like alot of fun. So i looked at the codex and i wasnt sure to what to buy first. plus my birthday is coming up and they(friends) are saying they'll buy me something or other. this is the kinda list i might want to play but im not sure and need pointers obviously.

H.Q.

Great unclean one and epidemius or skulltaker (or just epidemius and skulltaker)

Troops

Plaguebearers(10)

Bloodletters (10)


Elites

6 Flamers of Tzeentch(go go suicide flamer ^.^)


Heavy Support

Doesnt really matter to me but i'd want either a daemon prince or 2 or a soulgrinder

and i'd take DP over soulgrinder as the on average last longer. (too many melta around lately)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/267143/1140101.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/267143/1140101.page GMT Re:Chaos daemons army need some help his was CSM and i went daemons and we both did nurgle to piss off our friend who plays orks.
1.8k so CSM and i got 900 each and the ork player had 1.8k

either way didnt end the way i liked it since plaguebearers arent offensive enough even with the tally. mainly cuz we couldnt get enough kills going -_-
(please note im new to 40k so if i say something stupid well...sorry?)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/267143/1140104.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/267143/1140104.page GMT Re:Chaos daemons army need some help
Pointers:

Herald of Tzeentch on Chariots w/ BoT & We Are Legion and Master of Sorc. + Soul Devourer are GREAT HQ's.

Plaugebearers --> Tarpit unit (bogg things down)

Bloodletters --> Smash

Daemonetts and Horrers are meh imho

Fiends and Bloodcrushers are amazing. Especcially the fiends.

HS wise I suggest DP w/ MOT + Flight + BoT for more AT

Hounds are alright for speed assaulting ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/267143/1140115.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/267143/1140115.page GMT Re:Chaos daemons army need some help http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/267143/1140146.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/267143/1140146.page GMT Chaos daemons army need some help sv, and furious charge.
You could buy 2 for the price of above tzeench herald.
not saying dont get the tzeench herald just get sum slaanesh too.

i would avoid daemonettes and horrors too.

fast attack i would suggest seekers over hounds. rending more attacks and aura of acquiescence.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/267143/1140343.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/267143/1140343.page GMT Chaos daemons army need some help AP well for a basic troop, but they cause enough shots to hurt a horde and cause enough saves on MEQ to be a real threat. Bloodcrushers or fiends are great, but you need to only have as many models in the squad as there are unique upgrades + 1 regular for wound allocation shennenigans. For fast attack seekers are amazing, their speed makes them a real threat as you can DS them in a much safer area and move them out for combat the next turn. Heavy support is a toss up. Soul grinders can be amazing anti tank AND anti troop, but they give everyones anti tank guns a target. DPs are as always a solid choice and very customizable to your needs. Other units I don't know as much about, but I hope this was at least a little helpful. Remember, daemons look uber with their army wide inv saves, but that doesn't make them THAT much tougher. You still need to be careful and plan. Anyway if a hardcore daemons player comes in and refutes what I've said feel free to ignore me. This is just my impression from observing daemons. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/267143/1140403.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/267143/1140403.page GMT Re:Chaos daemons army need some help haha) excepet that blood crushers shouldnt be taken at only half power. for smaller games i would use flamers instead of blood crushers. keep at minimum squad number.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/267143/1140420.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/267143/1140420.page GMT Chaos daemons army need some help YMMV situation. My buddy that used to play daemons caused me alotta fits with the squads I described lol. I'm personally curious about daemon princes and how the best builds work on them. They seem to be one of those units its WAY to easy to waste points on as they are the only unit in the book with oodles of options. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/267143/1140465.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/267143/1140465.page GMT Re:Chaos daemons army need some help DP it depends on how you want to run him. the 2 best options are nurgle or tzeentch.

for a melee DP

you could go MoN noxious touch iron hide and optional wings and BoC

for a fire base. Master of sorcery BoT demonic gaze and BoC iron hide.

it just depends on what you are plannin on using them for.

Daemons are a real 'glasshammer' army they can hit harder than anything but can't take a hit in return, at the end of the day a 5++ save might sound great but its only a 1/3 chance of saving a model.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/267143/1144010.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/267143/1144010.page GMT Chaos daemons army need some help
