Erdemo86 Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Hi guys, what do you think are the best overall units for each faction and why. Yesterday me and a friends were discusing and i wanted to know the overall opinion. So what do you think are the most op/competive or best synergy units of the game? my opinion on this is: order: phoenix + wizard stacks/ sisters of the thorn death: morngul chaos: jabberslyte?, bloodletter+ bloodsecrator?

Somanlius Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 I think maybe : Order - Kurnoth Hunters w/Bows + Hurracanum ( or just the Hurricanum in general) Death : Not sure. Morngul is amazing but so is Nagash if he has correct support... Chaos: Probably Skyfires? Long range mortal wounds with the shaman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thoughttrauma Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 the best unit is any unit that contains skaven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayple Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Top-tier sort of depends on what they're supposed to do, but alright. Chaos: Stormfiends. Flexible, capable of dealing with anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heywoah_twitch Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 I think best overall unit and most synergistic unit are two totally different things. Vulkite Berserkers are maybe the best order unit for what they do and especially for what they cost. High in the running for most efficient standalone unit in the game. Stardrake sits in the middle, as it needs support, but is almost insurmountable with buffs. Aether-Khemist, maybe, for synergy. There are few more powerful force multipliers that can stay safely out of range and stack with each other. Chaos: Jabberslythe wins for most undercosted monster in AoS. The entire tzeentch book Death&Destruction: Nothing really stands out. There are notable units that are good when compared to their own GA stuff, but largely pale in comparison to order and chaos.

That said, endrinriggers with a buff can kill almost anything and get to anything in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heywoah_twitch Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Oh pardon me, you're right, they faq'd the khemist's ability on his warscroll without updating his warscroll online or on the app so I was unaware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yarrickson Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 I'll bite. Top Tier units: Destruction: Savage Arrer Boyz Death: none. Chaos: Skyfires, Horrors, Jabberslythes, Blood letters, Gaunt Summoner, Sayl the Faithless (still) Order: Endrinriggers, Fulminators, Stardrake Lord Celestant, Vulkite Berserkers, All: Balewind Vortex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gotrek Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 for death, vampire lord on zombie dragon is pretty damn good. expensive but decent return on investment with his damage output Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davariel Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 The Anointed on Frostheart Phoenix has always seemed stupidly good to me (the fact High Elf phoenix units kept their signiature 4+ ward save in the transition from WFB to AoS when saves got dramatically worse across the board is rather telling.. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 SKINKS! being able to move 8", charge 2d6", then disengage 8" through the enemy and take an objective is fantastic for a cheap battle line troop. And its legit battleline so you don't need to be running Lizardmen to use them to fill your battleline handicap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacDuff Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I gotta go with the badass witchy woman on the great big bug. It wins on the rule of cool alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
