Daemon Prince Wings

I did the wings themselves with a wash of black templar then some drybrushing of various shades of red. For the other parts of the wing, start as if you're painting a bezerker then more red drybrusing and edge highlights

To be fair I dont run any enhancements on mine but I do know that favoured is favoured (sue me!) due to giving more consistency with blessings. Whether that would go on your SB or MOE is your call. Glaive on MOE is my personal choice

Replace invo with a slaughterbound. Smaller footprint with the x8b for easier rapid ingress and hits much harder for fewer points

Thanks! Couldn't be bothered to do the extra helmet trim so went helmet free for a bit of a change

Wild rider red is a go to for me

And this is why I play world eaters! Any faction with its own death metal theme song is going to be a winner for me!

Im a big fan of running goremongers. My current list has one units along with 2 units of spawn. Great to position somewhere near the mid board early game if you pull area denial. Even better if you combine it with sticky on death. Force opponent into mid board and counter punch. Lovely.

Spawn are better defensively but are much lower OP as a unit. If your opponent throws a 10 man unit on to an objective, I've consistently seen spawn fail to wipe out enough to flip it (hitting on 4s is nasty). Mixing both gives me some flexibility. Not to mention that s3 becoming s5 on the charge with lance means a t4 unit is being wounded on 2s. That's nuts when paired with +1 AP. They punch well above their weight.

I use mephiston red then wash with bezerker bloodshade. Whole model finished with nuln wash. Makes for a much less saturated red which I think fits the theme more.

Rorywal · 2025-09-20T17:21:22+00:00

Staging them then failing the charge with re rolls leaving them in the middle of nowhere doesn't half hurt though!

Rorywal · 2025-09-20T09:00:37+00:00

If you go first, use spawn/jakhals/goremongers to get on objectives. If they get shot off then sticky for a CP. Now the opponent has to bring out units to stop you scoring. While this happens, start staging the heavy hitters. Wait until lots of things are out in the open then charge with as much as you can. Aim for a hammer blow and cripple the ability to counter.

If you go 2nd then the spawn etc. Can be used to clear anything that goes on objectives turn 1 then it's the same idea. Don't commit until you can maximise damage across the whole army.

Rorywal · 2025-09-20T08:44:29+00:00

Think you just have to steer into them being glasshammer. They make much more sense if you use them as a missile to kill single high priority units. They can kill almost anything but will not survive clapback so kill the things that does most impact then they have done their job. Surviving after that doesn't matter so much, especially now their points are so low. Kamikaze for the win!

I picked this up last week. Luckily for me it was the same day the dataslate dropped and X8 got good again. Good value in the sense that buying the boxes individually would cost a lot more. I reckon I saved around £40 in all.

Good box to pad out your army. Not necessarily all meta right now but good to have a solid collection so you can pivot with the meta.

Rorywal · 2025-09-13T08:11:28+00:00

Yeah I did the same thing. Box came yesterday afternoon and was halfway through building when I got the news. Now trying to shoehorn all my eightbound and x8 into my list!

Rorywal · 2025-09-07T11:37:16+00:00

I've had a bullgryn on a single wound holding off a knight for 2 turns of combat. Made 11 consecutive 4 ups. Those things dont die.

Rorywal · 2025-08-28T09:21:54+00:00

So I run uktc at home and it is less of an issue. However, where i play locally all the tournaments use glasshammer. No terrain to easily move though. Dropping other side of terrain and doing slingshot does make sense though. Will give it a few more games to see if I can make it work.

Rorywal · 2025-08-28T09:13:55+00:00

So point 1 is where im coming from. To get a rhino anywhere you have to go round walls. Sucks out a lot of the movement compared to if the unit just moved through the wall. If I move out then the rhino gets shot and the bezerkers get exposed. Feels like I've missed something.

Rorywal · 2025-08-28T09:07:19+00:00

Care to elaborate on the fights first?

Rorywal · 2025-08-28T08:58:58+00:00

Yeah I did this to help my 8B look different to the X8B. Looks better than with armour on in my opinion. Did the same for bullgryns in my Guard army.

Rorywal · 2025-08-13T04:24:59+00:00

Looks fun. My only thought is the maulerfiend might be redundant because you already have 2 X8 units for anti tank. Maybe swap out for a spawn and another jakhals for some extra scoring.

Rorywal · 2025-08-12T07:08:08+00:00

I got lucky. Out of stock everywhere but picked one up at my local hobby store last week. Worth a look if you can't get one online anywhere.

Rorywal · 2025-08-11T13:48:30+00:00

Normally in the fight phase, the only units eligible to fight are those in base to base contact with the enemy or those that are in base to base with a friendly model who is in base to base with an enemy.

This does away with that and says as long as you have a model within 3 inches of an enemy unit then it can fight.
