I say this facetiously and still a bit bitter. “BOY THEY ARE SO OVER POWERED. THEY ARE WAY TO GOOD! THEY NEED TO BE NEEFED. WE CANT LET THE META ADJUST!!!” Yes I’m a bit biter. I don’t like when knee jerk nerfs hit a faction.
Prey sight activated…. Love the real stratagem fuckery these guys can put out, can really see them causing a shake up in the CSM meta. AVE DOMINUS NOX!
They're kinda pricey for a charge support unit. They can help cripple some units that rely on strats to "do their thing" but im not sure they will get to where they need to be most of the time.
These have grenade. Free toss with a lord, then your hitting everything on 2s. Ap -2. Thats pretty good for 110 points. MOE and you could be rerolling hits and wounds. With +1 to hit and wound.
10 man ranged, and you can use a melta and krak missile hitting on 3s. That's a killer or at least may drop units to below half before a charge.
I’m so happy all the scalpers got to them first. Thanks gw for not fixing any problems with your online distribution service so this can keep happening. Your community is so grateful.
At 100 points throwing one of them in a rhino with a 5 man of legionnaires is potentially funny. At 115 they are too close to a 5 man of chosen. Also would have been nice if they had some synergy with the Night Lord detachment
I feel like their usage is skill intensive and not that rewarding, whereas pointing 11 tanks (or 300 lasguns) at them is not skill intensive but kinda rewarding ;). Unfortunately thats how my elite astartes find their end in 99% of games..
Full disclosure I am not IG hater. Obviously 11 tanks need to be bought, painted and assembled which take dedication and a lot of time effort.
So NO, I am not behind more imperial guard nerfs (similar to foot-templars holocaust&many more).

Are they that good? I much prefer cheaper Legionaries with OC2, almost the same weapons and full re-rolls to wound when taking objectives
My little black templar heart is jealous af. Good vid as always man.

As a dedicated Night lords player…yesterday's random announcement of this unit was like Xmas morning come early lol
Oh no, I can't use stratagems on my unit that's fighting 110pts of funny-looking Space Marines with chainswords. So anyway…
Has anyone made the comment about legionaries versus legionnaires yet?
Night lords are by far my favorite chaos space marines so i would love to see more of them
We see legit 0 of them in almost every edition and its a crime
What is the point of the special effect being psychic? Its not an attack so that does nothing right
Also how can they do this unit and not let them have lightning claws??

If you charge these guys into something like Jump Scions, do the jump scions get to come back with the reinforcement strategm?
They prolly the next chaos faction after Emperor's Children. Either that or they're gonna add more legions to base CSM
It’s bloody terrible. +20pts more than legionaries; gain stealth BUT lose battleline, OC 2, reroll wounds and 2x power fist / 1x lascannon
each traitor legion definitely getting their own upgrade sprue kill team and 40K datasheet

inb4 all the loyalists start complaining that they don't have enough unique units
The weapons have substained hits 1 so why take that with dark pacts?
Does this mean if an enemy unit is already under the effect of a strategem it will end if the voice eater comes into contact?
100% a high skill player will be able to make these guys do some big impact plays.
World eaters should get a kill team
