First it seems many dissaprove of the Possessed and their random chart rule. Seeing as you're hoping for a beneficial trait right from the beginning and instead you get something that doesn't benefit at all. So I was thinking maybe they could drop the random chart and instead have a list of different abilities set at reasonable points cost and the chaos player can pick three abilities for his Possessed (sort of like 3.5 ed).
Now ofcourse in the beginning this would lead to a variety of Possessed units :so_happy: until some powergamer finds a combo that's just sick :shok: and then spams it to everyone else
.
But I think it would make the Possessed worth taking again. What do you guys think? If someone else has already commented on such well I've done it again :laugh:
Part 2 of my thread deals with WYSIWYG. If you played against a player who brought lets say an Empreror's Children army and he took Khorne Bezerkers, but instead of them being Khorne Bezerkers he called them something like Slaanesh Beautiful Touch :scratchhead: (or whatever basically using the Bezerker unit's stats but calling them and modeling them to be more Slaanesh). Now the models are clearly carrying the weapons of the Bezerkers (CCW and Bolt Pistol) and follow the rules exactly. Would you accept this in your friendly game or even a Tournament? I came up with this idea because I noticed people were using other codexes to represent their chosen army (i.e. using the Codex: BA for a Night Lords army. I want a fully Slaanesh army (and I will have Noise Marines) but I think it would be cool to take a unit that's fully close combat oriented (like Zerkers) but model them in a slaanesh way. Anyway would you accept this?
Part 3: Do you believe Noise Marines are over priced? Your other cult options are only a mere 1 or 2 points more and come with way more special rules. To boot a Noise Marine must pay additonal points for his Sonic Blaster. I mean honestly the only difference between him and a normal marine is +1 Initiative and he's Fearless.
