Lanfear Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Hello, i´m currently planing a Death Guard army, and deciding what HQ choices i will buy/play. i thought about a Demon Prince, summoned greater demon, and a sorcerer. after taking a look into the Siege of Vraks books, i saw Necrosius as a HQ choice, costing the same point value as my currently planned Nurgle Sorcerer. Is Necrosius a good HQ choice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zid Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 For those of us who are not in the know; what does he do? I'd gladly give input but I don't use much IA stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hashmalum Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 In many regards Necrosius is identical to a normal Sorcerer, though he has one thing going for him, that is his true T5, which makes im immune to S8 instant death. He also has FNP and Blightgranades like every true Plaguemarine. In turn he hasn't the 5+ inv. save a normal Sorcerer posses. He also has Plaguebolts for his Boltpistol which are poisoned (4+) and a special rule Master of the Dead which is only usable in the IA7: Servants of Decay list. Unfortunately he comes with two rather lackluster powers Gift of Chaos and Nurgles' Rot which can't be exchanged. Bottom line: The pros and cons even out, imho. It'd take Necrosis solely because he is a closer representation of a Plaguemarine Psyker than a Sorcerer with mark of nurgle is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Darkshade Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Sounds relatively balanced. Maybe we will see him in Chaos Legions. And I say the statement with no illusions of it actually coming. More a "won't that be nice" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
