dice4thedicegod Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Does anyone run a firebase of Khârn and obliterators? Often see abaddon mentioned with obliterators but never Khârn. I know world eater obliterators won’t get access to endless cacophony but Khârn will still give full refills and is ‘only’ 120 points...

Schurge Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Khârn's reroll bubble is only one inch... a regular Chaos Lord would be better unless I'm missing something from a FAQ.

Special Officer Doofy Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Khârn let's you reroll all missed hits, a lord only let's you reroll 1's. Big difference. I mean it would make the obliterators better but Khârn won't do much himself then that game. My WE friend usually moves Khârn up the board and then drops in those newer red butcher terminators. Never seen him babysit a fire base. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364145-obliterators-and-kh%C3%A2rn-firebase/#findComment-5529259 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dice4thedicegod Posted May 26, 2020 Author Share Posted May 26, 2020 I was thinking more of a mobile fire base. Even if the oblits advanced, he’d keep them pretty accurate... and could move into melee by mid game Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364145-obliterators-and-kh%C3%A2rn-firebase/#findComment-5529260 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irate Khornate Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 He's pretty handy in a tight spot, but getting him up the board to a good spot with your obliterators to deepstrike in would be the hard part.

Relentless Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Are oblits worth the points for WE since they cant shoot twice? You could get 2 havoc squads for the same price, or 8 termies with chainfists fighting twice Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364145-obliterators-and-kh%C3%A2rn-firebase/#findComment-5529655 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dice4thedicegod Posted May 26, 2020 Author Share Posted May 26, 2020 2 havoc squads are only 10 w at 3+ save, seems like 3 oblits would have a bit of a durability advantage? As well as being able to fight a little in melee. Probably depends on what exactly is targeting them.

Scion Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 I have seen this happen in competitive games. With him babysit re-roll a trio of predators around him (triangle) with kill shot stategem active. I think thats a more effective set up. After this first turn one predator most likely will be destroyed and this lets Khârn move up or act as a counter charge deterrent in your back field.
