Aspiringchaoschampion Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 Daemonheart here. Can't say no to a 2+ and It Will Not Die. Daemonheart is a close 2nd for me. Il be using it on a palanquin lord :p just because 5 2+ 4++ save wounds with it will not die at T5 is cruel Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/300596-whats-your-favorite-artefact-and-why/#findComment-3893215 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilofix Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 The Hand of Darkness for its BAMF'ness and also for fluff reasons. Talk about a P!#P slap. Sx2, AP1, Armorbane, Fleshbane, Instant Death, NOT Unweildy (and so what if its only A1).

Lord Asvaldir Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 The Black Mace. I love turning my Daemon Prince into Sauron. That makes me want to convert the Sauron model into a Daemon Prince..and especially against squishy t3 models you really are annihilating as many guys as Sauron is in that clip. My favorite item has to be the axe of blind fury though, nothing like having a lord running around chopping everything he faces up.

Kythnos Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 I just love the Burning Brand - you can't go wrong with a torrent flamer. Especially my Warpsmith is loving it to have some fun with two flamer templates.

Aspiringchaoschampion Posted December 18, 2014 Author Share Posted December 18, 2014 Il be honest i like the brand but aside from the brand the axe and the mace the rest of the artefacts are just bleurgh. However aside from the artefact crozius ive used every crimson slaughter artefact and found them very good for the points Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/300596-whats-your-favorite-artefact-and-why/#findComment-3893709 Share on other sites More sharing options...
the jeske Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 heart, should have been in the main book. Second closest is probably the brand, even if I almost never use it.

Spacefrisian Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Current dex: Burning brand All time favorit: Dreadaxe Yeah good ol dread axe, and it gets even more awesome on a Daemonprince if you know what it does. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/300596-whats-your-favorite-artefact-and-why/#findComment-3893735 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second closest is probably the brand, even if I almost never use it.

Forté Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 My all time favourite has to be a Deamon Sword with a bound Greater Daemon. Would take ages to generate but was so much fun. Still miss the old Bloodthirster with another Bloodthirster bound into his axe.

Tenebris Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 In truth that would be the Kai Gun. In the current age of our army I am in love with the Burning Brand of Skalathrax. I love this artifact and it makes even a standard chaos lord a dire threat. Since I usually play against marines I love to roast them in their power armor. Sometimes I filed the lord with just the Brand and a ++ save. Cheap, cheerful and in lower point games, deadly. It also makes for a great weapon when I field a long term favorite of mine, the jet pack lord.

Sx2, AP1, Armorbane, Fleshbane, Instant Death, NOT Unweildy (and so what if its only A1). The Hand of Darkness sort of reminds me of that one anime with the guy with the huge powerfist who was really fast. Edit: Kazuma from sCRYed. That was a cool one, lol.

Gree Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 I most frequently make use of the Axe and Brand. I don't play supplements, but if I did the Daemonheart sounds about perfect for my style. I echo the idea that it probably should have been in the main Codex.

Lord Asvaldir Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Really wish it was, since I also don't use supplements I can't mention how many times I wish I had it..

Gree Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Yes, I do think the biggest things CSM needs in the artefact section is a 2+ save or Eternal Warrior. Our non-Nurgle characters need a bit more durability to do well in challenges. Or at least that's how it is in my meta.

Carrack Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Dimensional key on my mark of Slannesh Warpsmith equipped with a plasma pistol, ichor blood, and a combat familiar.

Scribe Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 No love for the Glaive? Khorne is disappointed. Current..probably the axe. I had a game with my Jugger lord, nothing less than a 5, and I was in CC turn 2 till 5!

Iron-Daemon Forge Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Current - It would be the Axe of Blind Fury. Strike that I5 for the Chaos Lord, with possible 11 attack on the charge or 10 attacks (counter attack thank to Mark of Khorne) if someone charge you. I've been useing the Axe of Blind Fury for the past two year now. There will be a few moment where I've rolled that 1. But end of the day it more fun having risk like this. Buring Brand as well. I'll usely give this wargear to my Warpsmtih, being able to fire both Flamer on overwatch is cool. I've also got a Dark Apostle arm with the buring brand. From past codex, it would be Dark Blade, Kai Gun & Dread Axe. I'd use to run a Lieutenant with Kai Gun who would join a unit of Obliterators. Or a tooled up Chaos Lord with the Dark Blade who would be S8 on the charge. While my Daemon Prince, Warsmith Abhorred Riddick would have the Dread Axe.
