http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/69.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net How do you use him?
You go for Dakkariman or Bio-Ahriman?
You use cultis to screen him? Marines? Termies?Spawns!?
What's best unit to infiltrate via his trait? I bet that some plagues or chosen with plasmas but are there any alternatives?
Also I know that it comes into 40k Lists but could you post a example of some cool list?

Ahriman is good with a shoot unit. My friend runs him with 2 obliterators doing some serious damage. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/534309/5748928.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/534309/5748928.page GMT Put Ahriman in a rhino with 9 Thousand Sons, get Tzeench and Biomancy's primaris. Hope for Enfeeble and Endurance.
Use a big cultist blob to screen Ahriman's squad.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/534309/5749377.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/534309/5749377.page GMT CC steamroller over dakka-focused armies.

Or, I use Pyromancy and run him with a 1k sons squad in a rhino. That can put out a lot of firepower at a close range.

My 2000 pt 1k sons list looks like this:

Ahriman
1k Sons: x9
Rhino with Havoc Launchers
1k Sons: x9
Rhino with Havoc Launchers
Dark Apostle: Mark of Khorne, Axe of Blind Fury
Cultists: x35 Mark of Khorne
Helldrake: baleflamer
Helldrake: Hades Autocannon
Forgefiend: x2 Hades Autocannon, Ectoplasma Cannon
Maulerfiend
Vindicator with Deamonic Possession.

-the three exalted alluresses from an exalted seeker cavalcade (the exalted alluress' are infantry so I can do it hehe) from my allied daemon detachment
-exalted flamer from a burning chariot of tzeentch from my allied daemon detachment (again the guy in it is infantry) this is the only time I have ever been able to get any value out of this too as it starts in range of its ap 3 torrent weapon.
-20 man blob of plague marines
-20 blob of noise marines with 17 sonic blasters, 2 blasmasters, a doom siren, and feel no pain.
-Farsight's bodyguard from my allied tau detachment (I did it once because the look on my opponent's face was funny and it was a friendly game, but really it was way too many points tied up in doing it) (farsight did not deploy with them)
-The shielded missile drones and their accompanying riptide from my allied tau detachment. (the kroot from the same detachment used their own ability to infiltrate and support this, so it wasn't alone)

Then 1 Telepathy, hope for Invisibility, if not get Psychic Shriek.

Then 2 Biomancy hope for Iron Arm, Endurance or Enfeeble. Get Smite. His BS5 is nice for that.


I run him in a rhino with 9 Thousand Sons. Pile out, rapid fire and his psychic powers usually deletes anything they can get in range of. I use the infiltrate on a unit of Terminators. If I get more than one infiltrating unit I'll usually use it on Ahriman's rhino to get in a better position, especially if I deploy first so I can see their deployment before putting him down.

Getting invisibility is really nice since with smoke you can get a rhino with a 2+ cover save. Also helps a ton if you get into close combat.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/534309/5750864.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/534309/5750864.page GMT
