Chaos Bike Sorcerer

[Graveblade]

Hi

 

I play a Night Lord army and I was thinking about putting my Sorcerer on a bike as he can take one for 30pts, as well as his normal profile he would gain 1 to toughtness and twin-linked bolter as in the rule book. could you tell me what you think as I play Night Lords and they are noted as using hit-and-run and Rapid attack Tactics.

Fluff-wise, this seems perfectly appropriate, and will give your Chaos Lord some added zip. I'd advise taking a unit of Chaos Bikers that can act as a sort of body-guard and ablative armour for him too, otherwise he'll be in danger of getting swamped or shot to death before he makes it to the enemy lines.

As for fluff you're fine, it fits well.

 

As for actual performance, I've yet to try fielding my Sorcerer on a Bike, I've only ever tried him with wings.

 

If you're going to put him on a bike, make sure that he's with a Biker squad of 6+ /w 2x meltas and an AC with a powerfist (or just bare bones and use them as a meatshield - though it's too pricey for that), that way you'll give your opponent something to worry about.

I should be able to fit a Biker squad of 6+Squrd as bodyguard at the moment I have a 1530 point army
