red_starrise Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Ok, I plan on running a pair of Chosen squads in my 2500 pts Iron Warriors, the first is armed w/ 4 plasmas & an autocannon, the second is 4 meltas & a powerfist but I'm torn between a rhino to give them more speed to get in melta range or an icon of nurgle to give them survivability & no, both aren't really an option.

Brother Nihm Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Rhino = Outflanking Icon of Nurgle = not worth it in small squads, get more bodies instead.

minigun762 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Icon of Nurgle is just too expensive to be used in a competitive scenario. Between the two types of chosen, I think the fire support team would be a better overall choice assuming you already have a fair number of melta/power fist CSMs in your army as Chaos almost always needs some added fire support and its less killpoints on the table.

Khestra the Unbeheld Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 If you're going to give them an Icon at all, make it Tzeentch. But given your choices, go with the Rhino.

the jeske Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 because +5 inv on 5 dudes helps them survive.. even if its for 8-10 it doesnt help enough. never IoN . dont use hvy weapons on chosen go 5 plasma . unless its some sort of a points filler . dont give asp champs and fists to units which outfalnk move , shot ,then die .
