Then again, the bigger the herd the harder they are to hide...

Big, so hard to hide and can easily get shot up, and overwatch on T3 5+save guys is brutal. sonsoftaurushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08466971377569066201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7612847696592513298.post-25644373166358945142013-12-13T18:18:07.420-06:002013-12-13T18:18:07.420-06:00Thanks!

Yeah, i think there's definitely some cool potential in these units but you have to be crafty -- trying to charge down a bunch of guns with these guys will just get them killed.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12035715759626775321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7612847696592513298.post-85948632761541190742013-12-12T10:22:48.202-06:002013-12-12T10:22:48.202-06:00Other than the heavy weapon dudes I think cultists...Other than the heavy weapon dudes I think cultists are a good stand in for penal legion and the random "desperadoes" rule fits the idea of randomly bestowed chaos gifts. Plus they can outflank, which could be pretty handy to keep your opponent guessing.<br /><br />I haven't seem them used very much but the rough riders look like they have some good potential as a finesse unit. I like the idea of using a centaur to represent a Chaos Kamir!Kamuihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05478392455761361330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7612847696592513298.post-38023754612008153242013-12-09T22:00:03.280-06:002013-12-09T22:00:03.280-06:00Exactly my feeling.

Stats are about the same, spawn are faster and get more attacks, ogryn have an armor save and ranged attack so... could go either way.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12035715759626775321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7612847696592513298.post-21600592314656609132013-12-09T09:19:57.157-06:002013-12-09T09:19:57.157-06:00Getting Guard into my Chaos army is something I...Getting Guard into my Chaos army is something I've been pondering for a while but have not committed to yet. I'm with you on your choices too. There's just a cool factor with chaotic Guard infantry and it's more fitting I feel. Allying in IG to grab a bunch of Russes and/or Vendettas is a good move if you're goal is winning but not so inspiring hobby-wise.Thorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04437070475561268098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7612847696592513298.post-36615616182590616922013-12-09T06:50:33.807-06:002013-12-09T06:50:33.807-06:00For a lot of the same reasons, a lot of what I did...For a lot of the same reasons, a lot of what I did for my Scythiak.
