I doubt Nurgle has anything that manipulates LD shenanigans. That's primarily Slaanesh's thing. A slaanesh caster would work. Give them the frenzy spell. You don't care about the S3 hits and become ITP.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7451402.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7451402.page GMT Re:chaos tactics vs hellcannons http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7451491.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7451491.page GMT Re:chaos tactics vs hellcannons

Stick a character in in it, give it the +1 leadership banner and then you are net a normal leadership roll, but can never use inspiring presence of your General.


Marauders don't have a banner allowance.

Lore of light does indeed have that spell. But as pointed out by thedarkavenger, WOC can't take Lore of Light, mark or no mark. I believe warriors are limited to metal, fire, shadow and death. Its in the army list selection for the sorcerer.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7452826.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7452826.page GMT Re:chaos tactics vs hellcannons

Unmarked sorcs can't take light. The only chaos model that can take light is Kairos.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7452827.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7452827.page GMT Re:chaos tactics vs hellcannons

@avenger, Ill already admitted the mistake, maybe try being helpful instead of pointing out everyone elses errors.



I was helpful. Slaanesh magic. Anything that grants a form of ITP negates the hellcannon's panic.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7453132.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7453132.page GMT chaos tactics vs hellcannons
Honestly though...if you're LD10 with a BSB you really shouldn't be too concerned. The chances of blowing a LD9 rerollable check are slim. It happens, but not often.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7453256.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7453256.page GMT Re:chaos tactics vs hellcannons 1. How would the doombull gaining frenzy make the whole unit frenzied (page 100 BRB, the leader doesnt convey special rules and vice versa) Am i missing something huge here?
2. Unlike other minotaurs doombull starts out with frenzy]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7453734.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7453734.page GMT chaos tactics vs hellcannons iirc.

EDIT: Don't warriors have access to a banner that gives frenzy?

The Doombull just has frenzy, and they have to win a round of combat to give the unit frenzy.

And the banner is MoK only.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7454186.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7454186.page GMT chaos tactics vs hellcannons

The doombull has the slayghterers call rule, which grants the unit frenzy. You are thinking of bloodgreed, which gives them additional attacks when they win combat.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7456313.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7456313.page GMT chaos tactics vs hellcannons Doesn't seem like a good solution to me.

I'd rather add wulfrick and avoid the hellcannon shots via ambush!

1 use, opponent is -1 to hit with shooting, if you don't roll to hit, they can only fire if they first roll a 4+.

It might help out in that one critical round.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7466034.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/628199/7466034.page GMT
