DominikB Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Does he strike at I1? As I read in a post his axe is a power axe however I can't find this in the FAQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slayer le Boucher Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 No... Its not a power axe, its Gorechild, it has its own rules, described in the codex, and Unwieldy isn't amongst them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DominikB Posted June 3, 2013 Author Share Posted June 3, 2013 Yeah I thought that but I saw a thread saying it was...he'd be useless although I think axe lord is better value for money :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warsmith Aznable Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Gorechild is actually a chainaxe with special rules, not a power axe with special rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DominikB Posted June 3, 2013 Author Share Posted June 3, 2013 True :) thanks for clearing that up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slayer le Boucher Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Is the thread you found dated before october 2012? If it is then you have found a thread about the Faq of the 4th Ed Codex, where in the few months where 6th Ed and the new CCW rules came out, Kharne's Gorechild was labelled has a Power axe, before the new 6th Ed dex came out.

DominikB Posted June 4, 2013 Author Share Posted June 4, 2013 Ahh could be thank you for that! :) Im taking part in a small campaign with friends at 750 points, where we a required to take a special character (with exceptions if no no reasonable options are there) and build an army around him Now I am split between using Khârn or lucius, but since a lot of people play hordes I feel his lash and armour effects could do better than the raw power of Khârn?

Slayer le Boucher Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Khârn its 7 S7 AP2 A, with rerolls per turn, and he give Hate to his unit. Can't remember the rules for Lucius correctly, but i think its 4 Fleshbane attacks with a AP3 S4 weapon, and negating 1 A with models in BtB. and additional S4 AP2 hits from his armor. But i rather go with someone who decks whole units and avoid to get hit, then someone who gives out Hits AFTER he has been hit. But thats personal opinion. AT a 750 pts, you can Take Khârn in a 8 zerker squad with double LC champ and MB, a second Zerker squad with double LC champ and MB, and a squad of Khorne CSM, 10 with 2 Meltas, Extra CCW and Champ with fist or double LC and Meltabomb. Khârn 160pts Zerker squad 1 208( or 209 i'm doing this from memory), and they got VotLW and even the Icon of Wrath for that price. Zerker squad 2 exactly the same. CSM squad with also VotLW and Icon, 205. You can always get rid of the Icons and pay a Rhino or Two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DominikB Posted June 4, 2013 Author Share Posted June 4, 2013 I tried both out proxying at 750 points, for karn 2x zerker squads 8 man rhino LC and hellchicken for Lucius I did 2 x 5man rhino CCW blast master NM hell chicken ML marines, I found the ability to removed the attacks of the hordes really worth it, and he does kick ass more than people give him credit, he killed 20+ boys and a nob on his own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
