AoS 2 - Hedonites of Slaanesh Discussion
Oldshrimpeyes replied to HERO's topic in Hedonites of Slaanesh
Is there anything in this new book that would compliment a build made around Archaon? -
No. It cannot happen. The gods are fickle and jealous. A champion who obtained the mark of a god and then chose to pursue another one would end up as a walking ****** within seconds. This is why Archaons achievement is so massive. By sheer force of will he managed to obtain 4 marks. He is a big deal for a reason. The Varanguard example proves this. Individually they are all chaos Lords, with all the personal attachments that comes with. Archaon can over ride that though. He basically let's them worship as they see fit but when they turn up for a shift at work they do what he tells them. If that means putting a shift in with the Slaanesh badge on then so be it.

I'd say there is a zero percent chance of a new slaves to darkness battletome within the next three years, minimum.

I recall there being some discussion around whether Host of the Everchosen lists were allowed access to realm artefacts. Has there ever been a firm ruling on this subject?

Must Haves: Feculant Gnarlmaw at least x1 Start Collecting Daemons of Nurgle at least x1 You will always get a use out of those two boxes no matter what direction you take. The Gnarlmaw has uses no matter what and the Daemons box is a great launchpoint for a daemon centred army or provides you with a summoning tool box for a mortal/Rotbringer based force. After that I'd really consider pursuing a daemon/rotbringer/mortal build. There's certain must buy units for each of those army types that don't play well if they are mismatched. For example a Harbinger of Decay is a must have in a mortal/Rotbringer list but has zero use in a daemon list. Do you currently have a preference?

It isn't a legal Plaguetouched Warband. You need 1 Slaves to Darkness Nurgle hero and then 7 Mortal Slaves to Darkness units. That list is currently at 1 and 3. You have also selected the Blessed Sons sub faction. I assume that's a mistake? The plan with the GUO is a waste of points in my opinion. GUO are extremely underwhelming in combat without support and kitting him out with the bell (support piece) but using him as a solo blocker is contradictory. If you want a singular unit to put out some damage I would highly recommend a Lord on Kakadrak. He is a proper combat monster and has a reasonable stab at carrying a number of artefacts to some effect.

Don't despair. You could easily restructure it to be a Plaguetouched Warband, that battalion is fine in Nurgle.

Yeah Munificent has some nice stuff in there, shame about the Mucktalon ruining things.

Where's Thricefold Befoulment at these days? I really want to make it work but haven't seen any high placing lists for a while.
-
Anyone got eyes on the list that came 2nd in Prague?
-
The Daemon Prince of Nurgle does not have that command ability anymore. Its been changed a single d3 MW regardless of how many 6's are rolled.
-
Is there any mileage in the Pleasurebound Warband? It's got the lowest drop requirement of all the god marked battalions, so much so that dropping Archaon into it is doable.
-
I cannot stand the direction taken in the Slaves to Darkness book. Being forced into a subfaction and losing out on a general option to take instead killed my interest in the army stone dead. For me, that design choice was a real shame.
-
I think I'm probably going to go down that route.
