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..

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...

[Wrath of the Everchosen New Subfactions]

Does Belakor legion boost in some (Competitive) way minor daemons? I like this old chaos style, flooding the board with legions of daemons from the four gods.

Do you see any competitive use of the STD plaguetouched bataillon in maggotkin?

Are tzaangor, enlightened and skyfire still worthy?

Hi guys,

I am not into BoC, and was thinking to add StD to my Slaanesh army (std fits well with the lord of pleasure).

what do you think of marauders ? A quick mathhammer suggests flails are better than swords (with the Reroll 1 banner) - any experience with them in a HoS army?

After reading a certain post I was in your place not long ago.  FAQs have been changed with AOS 2.0.  After failing to find anything there I pulled out my main rules.  The jerks stuck it in the absolute back of the rules on the ALLEGENCE ABILITIES page 242 under the Command Traits section and the one following.  Why this wasn’t mentioned under the Command Abilities section in the front is beyond me. 

You are right, I think it was covered in a previous FAQ (maybe 1.0), I am 100% sure of having seen it written in a FAQ.

However, the quote from the GHB I send should be enough to prove the point: allegiance abilities transfer to mount given they are not Command abilities nor artefacts.

Anyone got a link to the faq? Just looked trough the Legions of Nagash errata and designers commentary and couldn't find anything about this. 

Need "proof" to show my friends inbefore a tournament. 

Well, Favored retainer isn't a command trait nor an artefact, so by the book it should fit 🙂

Rumour has it there is a Mortarch Vlad coming and a new army book to go with him. Could be rampant speculation though!

Where did you find this rumour? 🙂

Hope Vlad is still alive to kick Nagash ass and claim back his supremacy over death... (But given new loosy fluff he will just be another nagash servant trying to revive his lost love Isabella)

The Legion of Blood ability:

Favoured Retainers: Add 1 to the Attacks characteristic of all melee weapons used by friendly LEGION
OF BLOOD VAMPIRE LORDS and
LEGION OF BLOOD Blood Knights.

Does the vampire lord on zombie dragon get an extra attack on all the dragons attacks as well? 

Yes, correct as per the faq (mentioned a few posts earlier)

I really need a motivational speech. I know Nurgles might waxes and wanes, but seeing al those new battletomes wich generate command points, let you attack twice or more in a row, antimagic etc. etc. I feel it wanes very hard for us poor Nurgle lovers. Blightkings and blades of putrefaction gets shut down due to al the -1 to hit, a lot of stronger magic armies or antimagic ones shutdowns the thricefold.....so wat do we have then?

how do i play Nurgle and might be able to win from al these new OP armies? 

Or am I to negative?

 

Well, slaanesh just lost its -1 to hit.... But was reinforced on anti magic 🙂

However nurgle has both the wheel AND summoning, coupled with really resistant units in a game focusing on objectives taking.

Takinv about marauders or whar exactly. 

Yes, I only see marauders for this price point (5pts per head, as cheap as clan rats)

[Rhivan's Elves]

Nice job!

I curious to know, what will these models represent in 40k?

Has anyone, with the models, had a chance to play with 3 Skullcannons buffed up by Wrathmongers and Secator? It puts an even bigger target on the Secator's head (this is always the case) but the dice math with 9 shots from 3 Skullcannons is scary. Very scary. I hate these models so much but it seems like ranged/mobile  big "look at me threat" that a lot of mortal armies need.

Hum, blood secrator indicates " Add 1 to the Attacks characteristic of melee weapons used by friendly KHORNEunits" contrary to wrathmongers

thus I don't think bloodsecrator provide a buff to skullcannon ranged attacks (only wrathmongers do)
