True Daemon Lord

So it's no secret that as a faction we are having abit of a hard time of it currently. Luckily we are a due and dataslate and points update in the next few weeks. Question is, will GW help us out.... Needed Point Drops Bloodletters -40pts So I seriously think Bloodletters need a big drop to be anywhere near decent. They are a severe glasshammer who's 2 attacks that hit on 3's are very capable of bouncing off alot of targets. Both the Bloodmasters and Skulltaker are great additions for Bloodletter squads but for those combos to cost over 200pts is insane!

The Crushers did give me the ability to just absolutely smack something with mortals while the Fiends were really dishing out the dev wounds.  Games Eldar 78-69 win Double Avatar, double night spinner, 2x5 hawks, 2x5 spiders with a smattering of characters. This is always a tough match up, but managed to protect one midfield objective while consistently con...
