The kiss like the death jester do a job... but there are better options for the points.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/747990/9771294.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/747990/9771294.page GMT Are Harlequin's kisses and caresses viable now that points have been reduced? if it sounds at all of S4 AP -1. Trying to decide on how to kit out the Harlequins I'm picking up. With new points, thinking maybe 4 embraces and 2 caresses per troupe.

What's wrong with the Death Jester, btw?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/747990/9771336.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/747990/9771336.page GMT Are Harlequin's kisses and caresses viable now that points have been reduced? Caress are equal "basically" in damage to Embraces with a TM around the Embrace is always more damage and b.c they are cheaper why bother with the other weapon?

Having 3-4 Embraces and 1-2 Caress could in theory is a good idea, a 3/2 combo Embraces/Caress (if you dont play with TM's at all maybe a 2/3 combo of Embraces/Caress).


About Death Jesters:
DJ's dont do their jobs, they are just 1 SC that if you cause a Moral you pick the lost model (never heppens.. like literally never happens even with the -1 to LD) The problem is units either dont have a special weapon (like Daemons or Ork blobs and Tyranids) or they are immune to moral, or have rules to basically ignore it even with -1LD.

His other ability to target characters just doesnt do enough at all, a unit of Rangers for 60pts will ALWAYS do more to characters.

Finally b.c they are characters and has good rules (invul, RC, sniper) they are over costed due to rules bloat. He needs to have better rules like the Assassin, not lower points. The problem with lowering his point cost is that if he is cheap enough to be good, he can be spammed to much.

I'd rather have hind really strong, but cost 90+ points.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/747990/9771385.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/747990/9771385.page GMT
