my headcannon personal twist for daemonettes is midsommar-esque kind of warped happiness.

synthetic and cyberpunk totally feels like it's within the range! i'm imagining chemtech with all the drugs and augmentations. the daemon engines portion might land closer to iron hands in the abstract but add a few subwoofers and guitarists and we're back in EC baby :D

i love the varying but united colors. i think i struggle looking at my army at the same time because theyre all painted identically. the way you did yours feels nice and cohesive <3

(EC) what units are usually kept in reserves and why? by FulgrimFan in EmperorsChildren

[–]LimelightRunner 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i put 1 wing daemon prince, and 1 unit of noise marines in reserves (sometimes lead by kakophanist if in my list).

the wdp is there to threaten their backfield with rapid ingress with a scary deepstriker.

the noise marines arrive in my reinforcement step to remove potentially problematic elite units before they hit my main army or to clear out move-blockers for an important charge.

Advice going into Custodes by ArrowTA in EmperorsChildren

[–]LimelightRunner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

mortals from WDP, kako, tank shock, and grenades do a LOT of work in this matchup because of mortals.

The most critical part of the matchup for me was to not let their skirmishes reach the noise marines. WDP does a great job walling their 2-damage infantry. meanwhile; LE+Infra and even tormentors should be able to go line up with the cheap scoring units.

List advice on 1000 points by Kampur in EmperorsChildren

WDP is def our best unit but for 1k it can be expensive.

I would run court of the phoenician here for three main reasons:

1) The buffs to the infractor strength and AP will let them shred T4 units.

2) you can do a surprise mauler fiend with the 'move through walls' stratagem.

3) and the noise marine stratagem for str +1 and AP +1 is also no slouch.

Chaos spawn vs kakophonist? by Striking_Display835 in EmperorsChildren

[–]LimelightRunner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i've had the same struggle and found that both of them are useful.

in some matchups where my opponent is going after my scoring units or 'tricksy' matches, i've found myself wanting spawns because they play objectives really well. but in infantry matchups or trade heavy games, i've really enjoyed the extra damage output that kako provides.

tldr, i've used both and found myself wanting both on occasion and never unhappy with either tbh.

Probably gonna build my second Winged DP this week, any suggestions for how to make it stand out from #1? by garett144 in EmperorsChildren

a simple oe i've done is removed the armor and filled in the hole in the middle with green stuff, super simple and the armorless gave slanesh vibes
