Plus their ability to charge on the opponents turn. I was thinking to try a unit of 3. My only problem is their points cost. For 52 ppm you get 12 wounds with mediocre attacks. For 160 I get 10 more flesh hounds or for 10 more a soul grinder. What's your opinion fellow dakkites?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/614901/7198775.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/614901/7198775.page GMT d6+1 poisoned attacks which is ok. The problem ultimately is that they aren't actually that durable in combat because they'll only have T5 5++ so its not hard for them to take a few wounds every turn and if they aren't dealing more in return they'll lose combat and take more damage to daemonic instability.

With that in mind they work well against units that are SMurfs or below in terms of durability or damage output as beasts generally out survive those units in combat. But anything more durable or more punchy then that will just beat out beasts and force demonic instability checks.

Best way to use them is area denial. Sit them in cover so that they are very hard to remove with 2-3+ cover saves at T5 and if anything gets close charge in and tarpit them for a few turns. You do need a couple of bases in the unit to do this though so it doesn't end up being cheap.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/614901/7198845.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/614901/7198845.page GMT IMO. Against other hordes or anything that doesn't have a 2+ save they'll do fine and are crazy hard to kill (specially supported by cursed earth). Don't assault units like Honour Guards or other units that will swing first and with lots of attack (large crusader blob also comes to mind).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/614901/7199042.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/614901/7199042.page GMT
