Requiemnex Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 So lately with the release of the new Grey Knights codex a lot of people were talking about this "fatecrusher" list. I was wondering if anyone could tell me what this consists of? We have one daemon player at our store and he plays fluffy lists for the most part.

Seahawk Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Fateweaver + Bloodcrushers = win...at least that's the idea. I personally think it's a one-trick-fail-horribly list myself, as it'd never work in my gaming environment. Plus it's expensive!

Akrim Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 If you google Fatecrusher you'll find a lot of different variations of the list. Basically the concept revolves around the Chaos Daemons unique HQ Fateweaver which is a tricked out Lord of Change who allows all units within 6" to reroll their armor, cover OR invulnerable saves, his achillies heel is that hes weaker than a normal LoC and must take a LD test for unsave wounds or he disappears. The "Crusher" part consists of the elite Bloodcrusher infantry (Bloodletters on juggernauts; very tough and strong w/ power weapons and armor). Both working in tandem can be quite nasty. The rest of the list is up to personal preference, usually using Plaguebearers as troops to claim objective.

Requiemnex Posted March 23, 2011 Author Share Posted March 23, 2011 Thanks for the heads up.. Yeah.. Fateweaver is an interesting HQ... A buddy plays him at my local store and I never knew about the leadership test for him until you said something.

minigun762 Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 I always feel that a better Fateweaver build would be MC spamming with a Bloodthirster and 3 Nurgle or Tzeentch Daemon Princes as a flying band of death. Supported by Flamers or Plaguebearers maybe. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225107-fatecrusher/#findComment-2723217 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valek Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 fateweaver is quite potent if you know how to play it, at 1500 pts it could look like this: Fateweaver 4 Bloodcrushers, full command 4 Bloodcrushers, full command 5 Plaguebearers 5 Plaguebearers 10 Seekers, Transfixing Gaze 1 Deamonprince of Tzeentch, Wings, Bolt of Change, Deamonic Gaze 1 Deamonprince of Tzeentch, Wings, Bolt of Change, Deamonic Gaze Waves: 1 Fateweaver, Crusherunit, Seekers, Deamonprince 2 Crusherunit, Plaguebearers, Plaguebearers, Deamonprince I dunno what matchup would be unwinnable, but there are certainly not a lot, the only issue is objectivegames with 3+ objectives.
