Paladins are my favorite units, but they are so points expensive for what they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnelian Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 It would be great to see them worth playing without the Hammerstrike battalion cos they're such badass modela Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledha Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 the evocators don't have an armor as big as the paladins. I can see the paladins going to a 4-wound infantry like the blightkings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One role could be bodyguards to Lord Celestant or Hero with Stainch defender in terrain , that's a 2+ save, with all the other abilities to protect themselves and the Hero. Staunch defender does not stack with cover i believe at 200points / 220 people will end up searching for at use for them but fail, i think their usefulness is highly dependent on whether vanguard wing is viable or the cost of sequitors not being to steep.

Dan.Ford Posted June 13, 2018 Author Share Posted June 13, 2018 So on live stream, did they say 200 points? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverJay Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 So points are 140 for 3, and multiple units can all cast their spell. Seems pretty good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems pretty good Similar to Dark Imperium, those point values and squad size are designed for the starter box. I wouldn't assume that they are going to be the proper points/size for matched play.

Although the unit sizes for sequitors and castigators both show a minimum of 3, and those don't match up with the box contents, so looks like these points are legit for pitched battles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to it: Sequitors come in 5s Evocators come in 5s Ranged guys come in 3s (the 2nd most annoying unit in the box) Horse ghosts come in 4s Wraith unit comes in 10s (most annoying unit by far) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
