Limit it to Troop choices, and it won't be so OP (can you imagine unlimited Soulgrinders?)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8229245860561585942.post-52474958699344115232011-02-17T10:13:34.353-08:002011-02-17T10:13:34.353-08:00Mmmm not to sure about these.

I know it look like their going to get kicked by the new book but there will hopefully be some redress for them in the codex.<br /> <br />The weird way that they have to deploy is one of the things i really like about demons letting them deploy normally just seems a bit well boring. Letting them not scatter or reduced scatter as BA DOA rules and eliminating the penalty for landing in cover would do a long way I feel to sorting some of their problems.<br /> <br />Simularlly letting them outflank so they can charge is again a bit mundane. I'd prefer to see some thing like the icons letting DS units within 6" act normally (eg allowing charging)which would make this bit of kit worth it points. <br /> <br />Daemonic Infestation could be fun with the GK being swamped with troop choice whist trying to take out their intended targets (MC).You might consider then giving the GK some bonus for killing of the bigger beasts such as extra kill points. Any thing that make the more basic choices more playable is a step in the right direction. This should be limited to troops alone mind.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8229245860561585942.post-57739937297501695412011-02-16T23:20:12.645-08:002011-02-16T23:20:12.645-08:00The codex isn't even out yet and we worry abou...The codex isn't even out yet and we worry about needing special rules to play against daemons?

GW won't punish a specific book without giving them a boost elsewhere.<br /><br />But that said, always game for a challenge.
