x_beowolf_x1 Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 What would each of the deamon weapons be good against though? I mean, im thinking of getting the Blissgiver for my lord, but would that only work for higher armoured guys, and would it be a waste on lesser infantry?

Seahawk Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Best targets? hmmm... Undivided: marines, bikes, armored orks, armored eldar, tyranids, MEq's Blissgiver: marine heroes, armored orks, armored eldar, gnestealers, MEq's, Tau suits of all kinds, anything else <Ini 5 and vulnerable to insta-gib Deathscreamer: marines, armored orks, armored eldar, genestealers, MEq's Plaguebringer: monstrous creatures Bloodfeeder: never, nothing (your mileage may vary, however) Anything else can probably just be taken care of with a power weapon. IG, gaunts, Tau, Dark Eldar, or anything else that's T3 and weak in combat falls into that category.

x_beowolf_x1 Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 ok nice, so it seems that blissgiver is the way to go... what are MEq's Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/135556-power-weapon-or-daemon-weapon/page/2/#findComment-1564972 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leethal Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 MEQs = Marine Equivalent. Basically Space Marine statlines. Like Necrons are techincally MEQ's except for the lower I.

BrainFireBob Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 If anything our recent codex has nerfed us, at least if you want to play straight up undivided, or almost anything but double lash princes with plague marines, and some other cherry picked units that go together like bread and battery acid. No mentioning the nerf bat, in my presence! I don't want to hear it anymore. change your tactics and stop whining! Back on topic- Though the opponent in that game though my terminator squad was fearless! I laughed at that one. Also in the game, it was the first time I used possessed... I rolled a 5 on their table and it took the opponent several turns to wipe out five possessed. :) Though I now considering adding another 5 more possessed to the squad. My poor berserkers lost their rhino on his turn one, simple because I forgot to move them, in my turn. but at least they immoblized a dreadnought with krak grenades... I may have lost the last several games with chaos, but I won't give up on them and sell the army off! I'm considering a second csm squad with twin plasma guns, a havoc squad box set and adding the addition lascannon havoc and autocannnon havoc that I all ready have. and possibly the overpriced(in others opinion) dreadnought to my army to rotate around and try out. Thoughts, now.. Also was using a lashed sorceror with jump pack... he died horribly blissful! If he uses Deathwing, his new codex is the exact same way. Dark Angels Company Captains have 1 CC weapon (which may be a pair of lightning claws), 1 pistol, and 1 bolter equivalent.

His company master wasn't a Deathwing master, it was a normal marine captain with plasma pistol and lord.... In his defensive, he is old school style 40k player.... and well a douchebag too(though its in jest calling him that!) Bloodfeeder works well against horde armies, (okay if you don't roll 1's). I guess I'll stick with the undivided daemon weapon, since I'm restarting my Night Lords army(since my chaos isn't painted!) with the bat helms for the champions! ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/135556-power-weapon-or-daemon-weapon/page/2/#findComment-1565327 Share on other sites More sharing options...
