AoS 2 - Legion of the First Prince Discussion (Belakor)


Duke of Gisoreux

Recommended Posts

I noticed that there is no thread for the new allegiance from Wrath of the Everchosen so I created this one. 

The army is an allegiance for all units that share the CHAOS and DAEMON keywords. This includes not only all daemon units from Blades of Khorne, Disciples of Tzeentch, Maggotkin of Nurgle and Hedonites of Slaanesh, but also some Slaves to Darkness and old Warriors of Chaos compendium units and even the Skaven Verminlords.

Here is my Legion of Chaos Ascendant at about 24000 points:

What cheesy combo could we do with a verminLord? (Bad Pun intended) What are STD daemons? (I saw the daemon Prince but I had the impression that the other were beasts)

I really like this allegiance that reminds me good old chaos. I hope it will be able to survive in my (very) competitive club...

It's a lot of options when you see it as list like that 😁

Do we see any cool/strong combos or "must haves"?

First, Thanks for create this forum.

i have a question about "the shadow legion" command ability. Can we return slains models to bloodcrushers, seekers...? Or only battleline like bloodletters, pink horrors, daemonettes?

Thanks. :)

It's only the "main" 4 battleline daemons like Bloodletters etc

OOOhhh. Bad.
 

I thought that as they have the keyword bloodletter, daemonette, etc. It could be done.

Many thanks

Will have to wait till the book is in hand and I'm not reading stills from youtube videos of reviewers to confirm but I think you can resurrect models from bloodcrushers, seekers etc. As you said, the ability has the KEYWORD of bloodletter etc so I think you were correct in your thinking.

All the keywords mentioned in the ability are plural so (BLOODLETTERS etc) where as Bloodcrushers have Bloodletter singular, hence my thinking of it being restricted to the basic daemons.

But I could be wrong! Haha

GW once stated that singular or plural keywords are interchangeable. For example they often refer to the HEROES keyword in rules, but no warscroll has that keyword, but only the singular keyword HERO.

So you can use the "Shadow Legion" command ability on the following units:

BLOODLETTER keyword:

  • Skull Cannons
  • Bloodletters
  • Bloodcrushers

HORRORS OF TZEENTCH keyword:

  • Pink Horrors of Tzeentch
  • Blue Horrors of Tzeentch
  • Brimstone Horrors of Tzeentch

PLAGUEBEARER keyword:

  • Plaguebearers
  • Plague Drones
  • Daemon Pox Riders of Nurgle

DAEMONETTE keyword:

  • Daemonettes
  • Seeker Chariots
  • Seekers

Of course there are a lot of leaders that also have these keywords, but as they are only one model each, you can't bring back slain models. The ability only works on units with more than one model.

Ah that's fair enough, must have been a FAQ that didn't sink in!

Quite a lot of people still believe they aren't interchangeable (or don't know that it's been confirmed) so hopefully this book will reinforce that rule for others :)

Q: Sometimes a keyword will be listed in its singular form  in one place and its plural form in another. Are the plural  and singular forms both considered to be different keywords?  For example, are the Bloodletter keyword and the  Bloodletters keyword different keywords?
A: No. The singular and plural forms of a keyword are  synonymous for rules purposes.

 

I don't know if this faq can help.  But when i read it,  I thought we can return the slain models. :)

Thanks to all for the answers

So the Chaos Dragon has 14" flying movement, 2d6 shots at 9" 3+/3+/‐1/1, another 9" shooting attack for D3 mortals that has a 50% chance of another mortal for anything that attack kills, 2 casts/unbinds, and a spell that causes a unit  within 18" to fight itself on a 7 to cast. 

Seems like a fun model but 10 wounds at 340 points seems a little fragile

I'm trying to work out if a verminlord corrupter with the relic that does d3 mortal wounds on a 5+ to hit is worth it. 10 attacks , 5's do d3 MW and 6's do d3+1 MW, if you have a spare CP you can reroll any hits that weren't 5's and 6's....

I'd say it definitely is, especially if you run the 5++ bubble command trait either on it or another nearby hero. Corruptors are already amazing assassins with the Sword of Judgement, and this relic is arguably better because it isn't affected by negative to-hit modifiers (and from memory, there's no good/easy way to combine +1 to-hit with the SoJ on a Corruptor?) It's also extremely tough with the double 5++ (I can't be bothered doing the maths but I think you ignore something like nearly 50% of all damage taken!) if you aren't running Be'lakors sub-faction. I'm looking at trying three/four Verminlords, the Changeling, the Masque (you need god-marked heroes to summon daemons in this allegiance) and a mix of Horrors and Daemonettes as a side project. This allegiance is amazing specifically because it gives people like me an excuse to collect cool models tied to armies I otherwise can't afford or don't want to play, and I adore the Verminlord models.

Most degenerate 1000pt list I can think of


Allegiance: Legion of Chaos Ascendant

Leaders
Verminlord Corruptor (280)
- General
- Trait: Primordial Commander
- Artefact: Fourfold Blade
- Lore of Ruinous Sorcery:  Bolt of Ruin
Verminlord Deceiver (320)
- Lore of Ruinous Sorcery: Echo of Hatred

Battleline
10 x Pink Horrors of Tzeentch (200)
10 x Pink Horrors of Tzeentch (200)

Total: 1000 / 1000
Extra Command Points: 0
Allies: 0 / 200
Wounds: 44 

Deceiver casts echo then skitterleaps corruptor in, corruptor cast the 2 anti horde spells, rest of army advances towards objectives, corrupter summons plaguebearers behind him, corruptor charges, corrutor does  ~14 mortal wounds from his attacks. Now they have to deal with an effectively 27 wound model who just put a decent size dent in their entire army if all the spells went off while the rest of your army marches forward. Skitterleap also has a 26" range if you want to try and evac your corruptor

Hellcannons are pretty awesome and can outrange so many threats.....trick is to keep the crew alive.  Though now that I write this, the crew are NOT daemons.  So I don't think those can be in this all daemons allegiance?

I would say not? The cannon meets the criteria but the crew doesn't but I could be wrong!

The Hellcannon Warscrolls has two sets of keywords, one of which - the war machine - includes 'daemon'.  While the 'crew' may not, you aren't taking a warscoll of them + a warscroll of war machines; the warscroll is the Hellcannon, and it has the daemon keyword through the war machine. No reason, to my mind, you couldn't take it.

Isn’t the Hellcannon scheduled to move to legends?  Indeed it is no longer produced..

The Mark of Nurgle does nothing for the list. In fact, Mark of Khorne would be much better because you can get an additional shooting phase then.

 

@all:

What are the benefits of Legion of Chaos Ascendant? Why not just Grand Alliance Chaos instead?
