Cpt.Danjou Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 +++Unit of the week+++ Chaos Bikers This thread is only for tactics for Chaos Bikers, not for pictures, there are other places for that. How to best use Chaos Bikers Legion? Marks? Which stratagems are worth using with them? Any solid unit combos?

Relic Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 (edited) To preface this - as per my other posts i'm an exclusive Iron Warrior player, so my observations on units are from a 4th Legion perspective rather then a big picture view. I have used bikes in two roles since the codex dropped: 1. As a small 3 man 90pt units for scoring objectives/completing secondaries like For the Dark Gods. Iron Warriors make good use of bikes because we can give them objective secure in the command phase via the Warlord Trait Bastion. A fast obsec unit with some durability is a powerful tool in 9th edition. 2. The 9 man biker unit with Mark of Tzeentch, Icon, Black Rune of Damnation and 2 Flamers. Instead of buffing Terminators, you put the buffs (illusory supplication, Black Rune, Skeins of Fate, Dour Duty) into a much more mobile unit which is still very durable. With Daemon Shells Stratagem, the unit puts out 36 -2 AP bolter shots, ignoring cover and two flamers at -1 AP. You can further give the unit obsec via the aforementioned Bastion Warlord Trait and also 5+ over-watch. Both setups have performed well for me. Whatever you do with your bikes - remember to always trade the bolt pistol for a chainsword!

danodan123 Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Bikers with the Slaanesh prayer to advance and charge seems really good, can reach out and tie up alot, potentially even advancing and shooting flamers / meltas and even can even get a t1 charge Khornestar 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/375858-unit-of-the-week-chaos-bikers/#findComment-5865986 Share on other sites More sharing options...
