Give Archaon Treacherous Bond and it might work out ok ?

Yeah, I should have tried that. He got smashed up by some flying big stabba dudes. It was a bit of an army mismatch though.

It may just be an aesthetic thing but Fatesworn knights don't get much out of Glaives. Due to the wording the Rend from charging and from Fatesworn don't stack. Ensorcelled Weapons extra attack and non reliance on charging is the better overall choice.

i do it for the damage 2 mainly, with the buffs they get from the sorc and the command ability  id much rather the damage 2. also the rend then kicks in after the initial charge.

yea. if ive done my maths right - with all the buffs they get its marginally better if they dont get stuck in a protracted grind combat. 

 

But im no math expert - ill gladly submit to a higher authority on it :P

i think it was worked out that over all ensorcelled weapons were better by like 2 wounds a combat if they have rend, due to it being 3 attacks not 2, over 5 models thats an extra 5 attacks.
