Tzimisce169 Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 I was toying with this idea and wanted to know what everyone else thought of it. 6 Chosen of Khorne - 120 5 Flamers - 25 Power weapon on champion - 15 Rhino - 35 VotLW - 12 TOTAL - 207 OK so this is a very basic load out. The idea is this: The unit tears forward in the Rhino and jumps out toasting a nearby unit (hitting about 15 models). If they charge they get 5 attacks each. If they get charged, they can unleash 5D3 flamer hits, then counter attack getting 4 attacks each. If they get shot at, well they might all die. Yeah ok, so it's probably a one trick pony but I think it could be worth it just for the number of flamer templates. and the panic that they could cause. Thoughts people?

minigun762 Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Why not add a combi flamer to the mix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Sage Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Looks more fun than cost efficient, but it does look fun (and fluffy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azekai Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 If they get shot at, well they might all die. Unfortunately, that is probably the first thing opponents will do when they see a unit like this. The rhino is a liability because even if it survives for a round, any problems like shaken or stunned will hamper the occupants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T0MMY Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 I like it. Might throw a meltagun in just to make them a two trick pony. You could do a cheaper option with havocs: 6 havocs: 88pts cc. weapons: 10pts 4 flamers: 20pts combiflamer: 10pts power weapon: 15pts mark of khorne: 12pts VotLW: 6pts Rhino: 35pts 190pts - although not much of a saving considering the fewer attacks, could throw IoW at them too for a 210pt total lol.

Brother Aiwass Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Almost the same can be achieved with havocs, for fewer points and more bodies. -6 Havoc (4 flamer, MoK, VotLW, PW) 141 -Rhino 35 Total 176 points. I though about that unit for my future NL army, because chosen are so expensive. But I like the idea :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killax Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Can be tasty, so go and do it! Then again, 4 Melta's is tasty to. Chosen are tasty. Play them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevak Dal Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Mmm, looks toasty :D Since Chosen are essentially a unit of Aspiring champions, I wish that if you marked them, they gained the equilivent Aspiring Champion statlines (Ws5 for Khorne Mark, Mastery level 1 4++ invulnerable save, Force Weapon Brotherhood of Sorcerers for MoT, Doomsirens Fus-Ro-Dah shenegans for MoS, -1 Initiative, +1 Toughness FNP Plague Champs.) They'd be so much more worth their points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
