Ulfast Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Im looking for some fire support and what is best, soul grinder or skullcannon? I was thinking three skullcannons. Cheap and nice but is that the best option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeStinyFiSh Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Soulgrinder is kind of expensive. You pay for High damage in CC and in shooting, but you kind of have to decide what you want to use. You can either stay back and hit stuff with shooting, or you move in for some CC fun but then you wont hit anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshlands Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Soul grinder is only 180 now, which seems okay on a nurgle grinder Honestly though if you want shooting with pure chaos daemons youre probably better looking at Horrors/Flamers with flickering flame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panzer Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 I don't think he was looking for out-of-codex solutions considering he asked in the Daemon subforum and named two Codex: Daemon options lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulfast Posted December 17, 2018 Author Share Posted December 17, 2018 @sfPanzer: you are totally right, I was asking out of our codex but I do like the other suggestions too. :) Seems like the skull cannon are not such a good option? no one has really suggested them, not even if they are more then one, like three. Why is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khornestar Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 They seem decent for 90 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoatibix Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 What about daemon engines? That seems like a fluffy choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gederas Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 I really quite like Skull Cannons. I only have one, but it was one of the better performing units when I last did a game with my Mono-Khorne Daemons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SanguinaryGuardsman Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Skullcannons are pretty solid. The price is really what makes them good. They are basically a dreadnought with a battlecannon, an invuln save, and they ignore cover. So they are nothing like dreads(lol?). You can even make use of summoning so they do not have to start on the table. If you give a herald of khorne the crimson crown, you can easily summon in 2 of these per turn and buff their shooting. You can also use this to bypass the rule of 3 if you have enough reinforcement points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzer Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Yeah I never took a look at the Skullcannons since I'm a Slaanesh player but now that I did I've to say the profile impresses me for the points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshlands Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 If youre going wider chaos any CSM shooty infantry or biker unit with Vets and EC (terminators, noise marines, bikers, oblits) Daemonforge is also very good, kytan looking like a good option post CA Also tzaangor enlighted archers and generally just spamming TS smite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
