Terkael Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Greatings folks, I have a local tournament coming up. I have a MoK Crimson Slaughter Biker Chaos Lord (that's a mouthfull) as my warlord. I am torn between fisticlaws and the Blade of the Relentless for weapons. What do you fine people suggest, comments and questions appreciated. Fyi the lord is riding with a pack of Khorne Bikers with Icon of Vengeance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
incinerator950 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 I am told fisticlaws is better when you don't have the axe. BoTR really shines on a Slaaneshi Lord where that extra initiative comes in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandviper Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 In my opinion the biker lord has multiple fantastic layouts. If ur going Crimson Slaughter, and you should be, standard as always is a sigil, daemonheart, slaughter horns. Now from here is where you can make it a little different. Like Incinerator says, Slaanesh with the BotR and keeping your bolt pistol or making it a plasma (i dont prefer that) you keep the extra attack and get some high intitiative S5 AP3 attacks on the charge. You could go tzeentch with fisticlaws to have a 2+/3++ tank who can still dish it out. If you face lots of small arms fire in your area, make him nurgle instead of tzeentch. If youre not using the CS dex and stick with the normal CSM dex, then go nurgle with fisticlaws, or take a claw and brand on a slaanesh lord. I dont prefer to make him MoK and take the axe because I feel like its better to have him on a juggernaught if youre making him Khorne. But everyones experience varies.

Emperors Immortals Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 If your running MoK, why not consider a daemonic mount? The juggerlord is a very useful hard hitting unit, he can accompany spawn or cultists and all are easy to kitbash or buy from fleabay. I run MoS CS on a steed with BotR, it does well enough and is usually overlooked by opponents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 As someone yet to -but planning to- build their biker lord, this thread interests me greatly. I don't own the CS supplement, however. What's the big draw with it, Lord-wise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bozo69pd Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 The CS supplement is pretty much how you should play CSM since all the WL traits are good, there is daemon heart, slaughterers horns, divination, and can turn a HQ into possessed (which is fantastic for summoning) then it also gives your whole army fear for free. Zero downside except no black mace or khorne axe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
incinerator950 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Which where situational anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperors Immortals Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I miss the burning brand a lot, but cs gives the 2+ IWnD, fear across the board and a sweetdaemon sword. BL gives a nice daemon sword and chosen as troops (which I think you should get anyway). Also CS gives you FC and CounterAttack on a HQ for 15pts. There worth getting, CS for the rules and BL for some real sweet background. And I'll be starting a LaD army soon keirdale! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Thank you for the explanation, Bozo. Damn that sounds good. Fear across the board? Now that's more like it! And I'll be starting a LaD army soon keirdale!Oh really? You filthy, traitorous wretc- oh wait, I'm not in the IG forum :DI look forward to seeing it!

Terkael Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 Thanks for the input folks! I may end up staying with MoK for that sweet IoV charge range reroll. I just may drop my Lord on a juggie though. My local meta is all over the place, wave serpents however are quite common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bozo69pd Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I also think MoK Lord on jug with 5 spawn (MoK if you wish) Can be pretty darn brutal too. Having T6 spawn is great but S6 on the charge with if you're lucky 40 attacks can really put the hurt on a blob of guard or... anything really. MMMMM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hidicul Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 After taking a look at the CS I am going with them for my Malice army. Now I need to switch from the Black Mace to the BotR and give his helmet some horns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperors Immortals Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Daemonheart sigil and MoT makes a good tank. 2+, 4++ AND ItWillNotDie. Put on disk and laugh at everything for a few rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
incinerator950 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 You can drop that 4++ to 3++ with prophet no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperors Immortals Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Not sure, prophet gives daemon (5++, fear), fleet and fearless - MoT gives an invul +1, so I think you still only get the 4++. Unless you mean on a roll of the Slaves table, in which case you can get 3++ and rending, which is awesome. Although now im considering a Lord MoT on disk with the burning brand - could be very nasty indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
