Emperor's Instrument Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Renegades, Traitors and Warp Fiends I require you assistance. ;) I am currently a Blood Angel player but shall sound be dabbling with some Chaos Daemons (not Power Armour I know) but I've also seen the awesomeness that is Abaddon's stat-line. ;) Is there a legal and effective way of combining some Khorne Daemon goodness (I already have my obligatory Bloodthirster) with the Despoiler in an army and which side of the army should be the dominate force? The Daemons or the Black Legion Marines? Many thanks in advance.

Neigorath Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Outside of Apocalypse, no. Cursed be the new codex renegades for not letting us have god specific daemons.

Emperor's Instrument Posted April 14, 2009 Author Share Posted April 14, 2009 That's naff!!! Such a shame that someone as beastily and in tune with the Chaos Gods as Abaddon can't summon some little red Daemons and one big one to kill stuff for him :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/166019-loyalist-succumbing-to-the-dark-gods/#findComment-1954714 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron_Chaos_Brute Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Ah, but he can. There's a catch, though. It's not your soul that these daemons want, no, the Daemonicae Genericum want to suck up your points. They also suck.

Obviously it sounds like it may be a very small, expensive army but it's just something I fancy doing for fun Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/166019-loyalist-succumbing-to-the-dark-gods/#findComment-1954731 Share on other sites More sharing options...
chillin Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 You can use Abby and daemons, but just the generic daemons in the csm dex. You can still use bloodletters and bloodthirster models put they will have generic daemon stats. Basicly you have to decide if you want to play abby and csm's with some daemons or an all daemon army using the daemon dex (w/out Abby), in which case you should go down to the daemon forum. And like the 1st guy said you can do anything you want in apoc. (which is one of the many reasons I don't play it) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/166019-loyalist-succumbing-to-the-dark-gods/#findComment-1954826 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutt-Man! Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Lesser daemons in chaos marine codex is a role-filler. 2 daemons per 1 marine if you use rhino delivery+upgrades. Two 5+ inv save wounds per 3+ regular save, with perks and drawbacks that are about even. (Double the attacks, but no shooting for daemons). Plus they are a simple objective taker and fearless, so they can be hard to deal with especially against power weapon melee forces like banshees. They are a bolster unit, nothing more. The greater daemon in the chaos codex is lesser statted, and with the 30+ point champ you sacrifice the 100 points you spend on it to possess your model might be a bit too much compared to the prince+psychic power options. If you run 2 princes and want a GD as well, then its a bonus. They are role-class models for C:CSM. The daemon codex works entirely different, and the khorne model hated most are the bloodcrushers. (Tip for the first wave, send your toughest stuff first, not the numerous) Enjoy.

Magnus Thane Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Go CSM and use Generic Daemons to represent Khorne Demons. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/166019-loyalist-succumbing-to-the-dark-gods/#findComment-1958011 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Lord Shamrockius Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Welcome to the warp! I know how you feel, I have just come back to the hobby due to a hiatus that ended with the 3rd edition (possibly 2nd oooh er) codex where you could still get each of the powers' daemons at will. I to find this the suckiest change to the new version. I don't like it but wasn't yet aware that it took Apoc to play them side by side... at which point, show me the way to that book...
