Lethal, acrobatic but hardly seductive...
Hello everyone! Zak Ludick here from Cape Town, South Africa and this is a Warhammer 40k - Datasheet Review post! I have recently needed to take a new direction. All the details about that is found Here - The Great 40k Review Plan
This is not to just regurgitating the stats and skills. I provide my own assessment of what I think of the unit and its capabilities. Often... about how to use them best... or how to kill them best!
Hobby Fund - Working myself into the clear
With my hobby posts, I generate a hobby fund. 50% of the income goes into the fund. At the moment I put all my HBD earned from Warhammer posts into my alt account @zakl.hobbyfund.
I am collecting funds in the following ways: - Blogging about Warhammer to earn HBD - Accepting donations - Can be sent directly to @zakl.hobbyfund in HBD - Selling some of the collection to friends.
I will do a new estimation of what I owe soon!
Back to the review!
Drukhari, Succubus
10th Edition Index
This is a no-brainer attachment for Wych squads any time you don't have Lelith Hesperax in a unit. So... for your second unit of Wyches... you get the Succubus.
Let's check her stats!
Stats
Movement 8" Toughness 3 Save 6+/4++(armor/invul/Feel No Pain) Wounds 4 Ld 6+ OC 1
Weapons
Weapon Loadout: Succubus weapons
Options:
The Succubus can be equipped with either a Splinter Pistol or a Blast Pistol.
Ranged Weapons
Splinter Pistol
12" Range, 1 Shot, Hitting on 2+, S2, AP0 and 1 Damage each. Pistol (This weapon can be fired while in Engagement range with enemies.) Assault (Can be fired while a unit is Advancing) Anti-Infantry 3+ (Score a Critical Wound on a 3+ against all Infantry, regardless of Toughness)
Blast Pistol
6" Range, 1 Shot, Hitting on 2+, S8, AP-3 and D3 Damage each. Pistol (This weapon can be fired while in Engagement range with enemies.)
Melee Weapons
Succubus Weapons
6 Attacks, Hitting on 2+, S3, AP-2 and 1 Damage each. Anti-Infantry 3+ (Score a Critical Wound on a 3+ against all Infantry, regardless of Toughness)
Abilities
Storm of Blades
While leading a unit, melee weapons in the unit have Sustained Hits 1. This means rolls of 6 to Hit, additional hits are scored.
Combat Drugs
While this unit is Empowered in the Fight phase, the unit has Fights First.
Thoughts
I have not looked at the rules yet, but I guess that this unit can be Empowered in the enemy Fight phase. This will mean that when you get the chance to charge this unit in combat, they are likely to activate this power. The unit led by Lelith has Fights First Automatically.
Sustained Hits 1 is also very useful to this unit.
Thank you for reading!
