BlOoD_GoD Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Yeah, so if you read the description, I was wondering if i should take daemons in my IW army to summon from the warp. I always saw IW as basically spacemarines just turned to chaos, like, not many mutations or possesed just infantry and tanks. So 1, i was wondering if I should take daemons and 2, if i do, are they worth it.

mightygoose Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 well deamons as in bloodletters and deamonettes, no, manglers and machine wraiths yes. maybe some form of robotic unit that teleport in from elsewhere after your warband got lucky fighting necrons out of range of their tombworld...

davidren2401 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Flayed Ones would make a great cross between machine and daemon http://i.pbase.com/u16/dannec/upload/5134231.Flayed_b.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/159394-iron-warriors-help/#findComment-1868587 Share on other sites More sharing options...
minigun762 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 So 1, i was wondering if I should take daemons and 2, if i do, are they worth it. I'd say they can take them, but not as a main focus for their army. Iron Warriors have a very pragmatic view of Chaos, they understand it uses them and they use it so if they thought some daemon cannon fodder would help them take a fortress or repel an attack, then they'd drop them in for fun. They're not going to rely on them like they do their own troops, after all Chaos is a fickle ally.

Headkeepa Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I completely agree with the gentleman who suggested flayed ones. They look cool, they are GW models and with the new dex, you can make what ever fluff you want! I hate to go with a story line that limits your selections. I'd always rather have access to everything and make up a story as to why they have access to that.

Ju'kosian Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Codex wise, you can have them. Fluff wise, they don't use daemons, but they don't mind daemonic upgrades... Chosen, lords, etc..

DracoDarco Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 They are worth it, summoning 20 daemons and having them charge the enemy, 3x20=60 attacks to decimate any force, plus there's the intimidation factor of that many models on the board :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/159394-iron-warriors-help/#findComment-1868990 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlOoD_GoD Posted February 3, 2009 Author Share Posted February 3, 2009 Ok, thanks for the help, if i can get around to it I might paint some bloodletters to put in my army, oh and do i need a marine with a khorne icon to summon them or does any icon work?

Commander Skaav Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I think if it's Iron Warriors, and you're using beserkers, what better than to use some Juggernauts of Khorne, part machine, part daemon, even if you use them for your fast attack option instead of bikes for your marines, paint them up in IW colours. keep the Daemon riders for other projects.

Castlerook Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 While Iron Warriors do not really use the Daemonic in the same way as say, the Word Bearers, they will use daemons to fuel any machines they've created. If I remember the IA article about the Iron Warriors correctly, while Iron Warriors don't allow themselves to be possessed by Daemons, they amputate any limbs which mutate through possession, they will replace the limb with bionics. Basically, go with techno-organic daemons, Flayed Ones are a pretty good choice, and if you want to use possessed, convert a unit that has a lot of bionics. My two cent.
