Zephaniah Adriyen Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Right, so. I've got a metal Daemon Prince on the way, and I'm looking at getting some Bloodletters so I can use him with something thematic, rather than just the spare Cultists I have lying around. When I actually have an army finished for him, I'm wondering... would it be at all feasible to summon in those Bloodletters?

Closet Skeleton Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Bloodletters are probably the worst thing to summon because they can't use the khorne banner stratagem to get the 3d6" charge if they aren't in your army list.

Panzer Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Imo summoning is still not worth it except for some very few niche situations. This thread might be an interesting read for you: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/353995-summoning-worth-another-look/ That being said a Daemon Prince with a bunch of Cultists is not less thematic than with a bunch of actual Daemons. It's an ascended mortal after all and the Cultists could be his devoted followers/slaves/whatever.

Zephaniah Adriyen Posted June 12, 2019 Author Share Posted June 12, 2019 The Daemon Prince is specifically the former Captain of a Space Marine Company; he'd probably have either daemons or Space Marines for honor guard. Still, you're not wrong. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356578-summoning-any-good/#findComment-5330470 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tychobi Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Better to "deep strike" em. Summon is annoyingly chancy. Look up "Bloodletter Bomb" for details. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356578-summoning-any-good/#findComment-5330614 Share on other sites More sharing options...
