INKS Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 So there is an entry on this list that I don't understand. ++ Reinforcements (Chaos - Daemons) [190pts] ++ + Reinforcement Points + Reinforcements [190pts]: Reinforcement Points, 9x Reinforcement Points What is this? what models are these? how many?

MasterDeath Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 These are no units at all, but a leftover of points that can be used to for example summon units in the course of the game. You can decide in what units once you summon them.

INKS Posted July 29, 2022 Author Share Posted July 29, 2022 Darn. I wonder what he summoned. MasterDeath 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/375249-need-help-reading-a-list/#findComment-5851218 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterDeath Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 I assume either some nurglings or a Herald. You cant do all that much with 160 Points. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/375249-need-help-reading-a-list/#findComment-5851261 Share on other sites More sharing options...
INKS Posted July 29, 2022 Author Share Posted July 29, 2022 190 pts, but that is a good point. can't be taking too much. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/375249-need-help-reading-a-list/#findComment-5851357 Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingYertle Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 There are some Mortarion + Daemon Engine lists that summon Epidemius (105 pts) + Poxbringer (75 pts). The Poxbringer has a spell that can heal Nurgle Daemons which includes Mortarion and Epidemius' Tally of Pestilence can buff all friendly Nurgle Daemons with a bunch of fun nonsense such as Re-roll 1s and +1T. Its an excellent way to buff DG Daemon Engines. At least until the new Daemon Codex arrives and likely closes this loophole.

Tokugawa Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 This list ALWAYS try to summon Epidemius first, the lefted points are flexible. IIRC the player himself replied on Reddit and mentioned that he had summoned furies in some games.

Dr_Ruminahui Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 (edited) To clarify Tokugawa's comment (as it is true but potentially misleading) - We are getting a new demon codex soon. We know that it has summoning, but the rules for doing so will be changing. You can probably still put Epidemius in your list without breaking your faction ability (the rumour is you can have up to 25% of your force as demons without breaking your faction), but the exact mechanics for doing so will be different and most likely won't involve reserving points. Additionally, the change of codex will likely change what demon characters such as Epidemius can buff - its unlikley that they will still be able to give their demon buffing abilites to Chaos Space Marine units with the DEMON keyword.

KingYertle Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 GW previewed Epidemius today and as expected this combo will be dead when the new daemon codex drops.

Special Officer Doofy Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Not surprised. They are probably trying to limit cross faction synergies. I don't blame them.
