Best demon engine detachment

[Trollbeard]

Hey guys. I haven’t picked up the PA book yet, but I’m just curious which one you guys think is the best for demon engines? My current list has 2 PBC with entropy cannons and 3x spitter drones.

 

I believe the two main ones are; “The Relentless “ and “Poxmongers”?

 

Just wondering what your collective rotten brains think?

 

Thanks in advance!

I've become a fan of the heavy blight launchers on drones. While paying a CP to have them be able to advance and shoot without penalty seems excessive (as they should already have that), it does give them a nice boost.

It's a slap in the face. If in the next codex DG don't get a legion wide trait instead of just infantry and helbrutes, I might just walk away from the game again for awhile. Alot of the stuff we got in PA is cool but alot of it is stuff we should of already had or to make unplayable units (characters) playable.

Poxmongers all the way. 4++, +1 AP in melee, possibility to regain wounds. You kidding me?

Creeping Plague gives -4 AP on unmodified rolls of 6 to damage, do you think that stacks with Aura of Rust which adds an additional -1 AP on rolls of 6+?

 

Edit: off the top of my head I can't think of anytime -5 AP would matter.

If someone was hiding in cover? And you REALLY wanted to shoot him in the head?
