Chaos knights/War Dogs

[Orpheus108]

Greeting Fetid Ones,

 

So building on my DG army, im loooking at going into Knights/War dogs, mainly the War Dogs to begin with in 2000pts.

 

My question to all is, what experiences have you had with these? Loadouts for the Knights and Tyrants.

 

As for War Dogs, im going to go Thermal Spear/Chain-Cleaver

[Tokugawa]

As the only chaos faction which received real 9th rules, DG is THE most competitive chaos army now (Slaanesh demons have ~8.5th rules so they are also good; other chaos armies with older rules usually weaker). Any ally just make DG weaker.

 

I suggest wait until the 9th Chaos knight codex launched, then decide whether to buy the knight models and which to buy.

I second Tokugawa here.  By adding War Dog not only will it cost you 3 CP to add the knight detachment, you will also forfeit the Contagions of Nurgle Ability.  The Wardog with Thermal Spear is a good unit, but on the table I don't think it will vastly out perform a Hellbrute with a Multi-Melta & Scourge to the point where it was worthy of the steep investment cost.
