9th Edition
Drops from Competitive to Playable
- Performance: Unchanged
- Cost: -1
- Strategy: Unchanged
Still the cheapest HQ option but very little changes otherwise. You may see these less often with the reduced prices of Exalted Sorcerers now and the increased demand for optimizing your HQ choices (limited slots).
Notes
- Small point change but relatively good overall
- Exalted Sorcerer offers better value with compressed HQ slot availability
- Can benefit from new Cult options but offer little otherwise in support
8th Edition (Chapter Approved 2019)
Overall: 3.7
- Performance: 3
- Cost: 5
- Strategy: 3
Notes
- Cheapest option at HQ
- Inferno Flame Pistol is a great value for 3pts - remember pistols can also be used when locked in close combat
- Force Staff is the best option here because the +2 strength gives you better odds to wound against tougher targets
- Casting Diabolic Strength on one of these guys means you’re wounding on 3+ against most vehicles that are T7. Throw in Veterans of the Long War and suddenly you’re at 2+
- Not the best option to make your Warlord or give a relic to due to their relative fragility and typically there are better options available
