Well this *finally* concludes the post-dataslate Daemons reviews. Hopefully these videos influenced some of you guys to look into (or better try out!) some of the units you might have skipped over in the past. Like I say in the video I think Tzeentch has some of more powerful options in the Index, not only does he have some legitimately strong options for taking out your opponent, they also offer some of our best scoring options imho. All that said let me know what you guys think or if I over/under ranked anything along the way I appreciate you guys watching! Feel free to shoot me any suggestions for future content you'd like to see as well 😜

Tzeentch has a lot of lone ops, which is something the other gods don't have in remotely the same numbers. That's a big thing.

As sommeone who got into the game with Tzeentch, it:s nice to see that many are useful, and that this is pretty similar to what I thought. Looking forward to what their mono-detachment will bring. Only other people do not seem to love the Fateskimmer as much.

@johnj.spurgin70374 ай бұрын
NGL, I pondered what the tzeetch detachment's rule might be and my brain said "all Tzeentch units in your shadow of chaos can't be targetted outside of 18-24 inches (depending on infantry vs monsters)" and I shuddered at the idea. I can totally see a Tzeentch detachment do that.

I do see fateweaver at top tier in mono lists because you can spam strategems in the early game for a big power boost.
@geoffreywampach25883 күн бұрын
Amendment: i realized I forgot that there is a limit of only gaining 1 bonus CP per battle round, so you can't layer 2-3 strategems for "free" early game. Not bad, but not as busted as I had believed when I was initially reacting.

Just a clarification on the Fluxmaster, his dice change to a 6 isn't an unmodified 6 so he doesn't get dev wounds on it. Otherwise I think I agree mostly, main thing is I think attaching the exalted flamer is actually pretty good, keeps him very safe from assassinate and being able to advance and shoot the flamers is useful. I always go sustained on the LoC but that's because I'd be so sad if I rolled 5 6's on the hits Have never really found screamers and the Fateskimmer do much work, but in a monogod list perhaps they'd be solid
@johnj.spurgin70374 ай бұрын
Depends on what the monogod detachment buff is.
@fatarchon4 ай бұрын
Thanks for the clarification! I'm used to those abilities counting as unmodified but obv not in this case. For the LoC it really depends on the target for me but I'd agree Sustained is probably the best in the majority of cases (I do like Ignores Cover + the AP strat though) Screamers are AWESOME imho, though a lot of that is my playstyle I'm sure. I love them for scoring, screening & move blocking. Otherwise they don't do all that much but 14" & being 3W 4++ is great for the price (imho!) Appreciate you sharing your thoughts

I came here to see your ranking on the Kentucky warpfried chicken. Tzeentch isn’t my favourite chaos god but the Lord of Change is a model I absolutely love. Great to see daemons have a competitively viable option for a ranged army.

Agreed! Only Khorne could really do mono before but now the floodgates have been opened for ALL of them. Couldn't be happier with how they've ended up. Even as a mainly comp player, who doesn't love running a themed list every now & then?

I'd probably take a look at Burning Chariots for sure, Tsons have great AP so they'd love that. While tey're inefficient I'd potentially toss in some Blue Horrors too (both for Battleline & the infil) but otw bring Pinks along :)
@joeygk29903 ай бұрын
How does pink (or blue) horrors split ability work with the fact that chaos demons can bring back models anyways inside the shadow of chaos? Do they get to split into blues and then bring back more pinks anyways?

So long as they're taking Battleshock tests, yup! Nothing stops you from splitting then regen'ing right after

@fatarchon4 ай бұрын
Well first of all, it's sounds really fun & has a cool theme so I'd probably try it anyways lol. Otherwise from a COMPETITIVE pov, I think Pinks get less & less good the more squads you include so I'm not sure I'd bring more than ~1-2 as they are pretty expensive & are only really good at sitting on obj or killing chaff. Blues are way too expensive to spam though, personally I'd still with x1 but maybe x2 could work. Definitely have value with their infil though but if you're going mixed just bring Nurglings
@scottdevnull57784 ай бұрын
question on rules, so Shadow of chaos, if I infiltrate some blues onto mid field during deployment , because shadow is the start of any turn if you control, would that mean I could claim mid field at the start of the game ?
@fatarchon4 ай бұрын
I believe it's technically at the end of each *phase* but yes after their Command Phase you'd control it! SoC is checked for each phase too so it's basically the same outcome :) That's actually really important to know for Strategems & the like (ie Warp Surge to adv&charge) as you can claim your SoC in the movement phase & use it from there

If you have a fluxmaster leading a unit of pink horrors, can he use his 12 movement as long as he stays in coherency? Even though the pinks move 6?

Hey archon, where do you rate the demon princes?
@fatarchon4 ай бұрын
For Tzeentch? Not very high :( They're the worst version imho (only getting a buffed Heavy Bolter). For the other gods I think they're alright, I think the foot ver works for Slaanesh / Nurgle & the winged ver for Khorne. Foot bee's Stealth aura is very strong & the winged ver can become a budget beatstick. Buuuut, a GUO is only ~40pt more + we have a lot of similar options with the other units to pick from so at the end of the day I think they're more of a niche pick than a staple or the sort But, that's just my opinion! Any unit can be made to work, just depends on the general
