So I’m gunna again avoid talking about
Daemons, Some terrible delayage I know! I am though about to talk about
distrustfull allies. But with the new Inquisitoral codex in tow I thought I’d
quickly talk about these guys!
The inquisition… The amount I have been the opposite end of
coteaz seize just isn’t funny…. Especially as those seizes and normally from
another DoG member… They know I hate him!
Seizes are definatly pretty bad especially for Deldar, Question
is… is there anything in the book for us?
Inquisitor Warlord?
Oh yes… instead of taking an Archon/Baron/Haemonculus as
your warlord this guy can be target no.1.
For me this is brilliant especially if you have a Archaon,
suddenly he isn’t as much of a target. Sting a archon who isn’t the warlord as
some sort of single character in a venom might actually become a a very tastey
option as you don’t need to buy in another dark eldar character.
Unfortunatly a number of the traits are pretty pants not
because they aren’t good but more because they won’t effect the dark eldar
army. There isn’t enough really to benefit
Servo Skulls
I’m not that bothered about this skill. Yes it’s usefull but
realistically I’m not gunna be that bothered playing a bike army as grav guns
shouldn’t really scare anyone.
This could however be used with things like drop pods to
help deepstriking for marines or other
imperial allies so might be usefull if your using these. Perhaps not 305
points usefull tho.
Coteaz
As above the worst thing for me is if some seizes the intuitive.
Bringing in this guy negates it completely which is massive. However I never
used Grey knights before because it takes up the valuable allies slot that
could be taken up by Eldar/Space Marines.
However this is no-longer the case and as such I’d be inclined
to take him. I’m not 100% that his steal the initiative power actually works as
a distrustfull ally (can someone confirm this?) If not then…. WAYHAY!
Conclusion
I’m not going to be bowled over by this but theres definatly
a few options available for us. Can you think of anything else? If so comment below!
See you next time!
Vect with 4+ seize and Coteaz with reroll
ReplyDeleteCould do that anyway as you can ally in Greyknights, Problem is because he's distrustful can you even combine the 2?
ReplyDeleteYou would previously have to buy at least one Troop unit too though.. Now you can just spend 100 points on what is probably the best special character, point for point, in the game.
ReplyDeleteAlso, being desperate allies makes no difference to the roll to seize.
