 | Re: Still need some tips im confused!?? Summon. If you can summon them then they should be able to move up the board without being exposed to gun fire. I believe that any chaos banner allows you to summon the daemon, or something. Or if you can use deep strike too that would help a lot. Basically you are looking for things that give you a ton of movement like deep strike, infiltrate or summoning |

| Re: Still need some tips im confused!?? I think he means Chaos Daemons... Anyway, there are more ways to play them but keep in mind that having an Icon in each "wave" of your daemonic assault to ensure survivability of the next wave Deep Strikers, no scatter within 6". I also like to put mainly foot sloggers in the first wave so that the faster moving units in the second wave will hopefully be able to reinforce the lines. A list using more than just one god's units have a much better time on the battlefield.

| Re: Still need some tips im confused!?? Yeah, Icons are going to save your troops. While the new DS rules make it easier to get on the board, and Icon guarantees it, and in a position YOU want. As I've said before, Nurgle units are usually best for first deployment, as they can soak up fire very well. After that, bring in the rest. I prefer a Nurgle/Khorne army, as I can switch from offensive to defensive on the fly.

| Re: Still need some tips im confused!?? yeah nurgle daemons are best for first wave because T5 and FNP. horrors are close second cuz they can put a hurting on something the turn they come in. i like using plaguebearers to land flamers safely next to huge units and flame them to death.
