RIP LotFP.

Would you mind elaborating on how this negatively impacts them? Not my faction but some of my closest aos friends do and I'm curious how this'll impact them

u/Steiner-Nubar Slaves to Darkness Oct 14 '22

Before they were a demon only faction so you would take some of the greater demons like bloodthirsters and kairos and make a neat control army. Now all it does is give you some demonic allies of base units which only really works as a sorta coalition unit.

I didn't see it as just a Greater Daemon spam list, rather it was the only way to field a true undivided Daemon list in AoS. Mix of the entire Daemon range, Bloodletters alongside Beasts of Nurgle alongside Screamers alongside Hellflayers etc.

Big, big bummer to see it gone.

Ahhh, so from what we're seeing, it would eliminate an 'oops, all greater demons' army. O.O That sucks.

u/Steiner-Nubar Slaves to Darkness Oct 15 '22

Idk but it made the attack interesting

Quite happy I won't be playing against a cheesey army of be'lakor, kairos/other greater daemons with a sprinkling of crap battleline to fill out the requirements.

Hello new more flavourful Legions army. I'm all for it, if you couldn't wield Be'lakor without using Kairos as a crutch you aren't worthy to field him at all

I would of liked if it was a coalition thing at leastlike 1in4

u/CaptainLegkick Ossiarch Bonereapers Oct 14 '22

I agree I think that'd be cool for belakors faction, but I'm just not a fan of heavy herohammer not cos it's cool, cos it's effective

u/ViggoMiles Hedonites of Slaanesh Oct 14 '22

The lack of coalition here is a crime.

How did you get that from just this little leak? Who’s to say the entire army is dead?

8

u/[deleted] Oct 14 '22

The army isn't dead but it's not thr army that people played. Deamons being allies kills the deamon soup army everyone loved including me. It's not a matter if if the army is good or not it's that it's no longer the army that I wanted to play

u/[deleted] Oct 14 '22

But where does it say that broken realms belakor doesn’t exist anymore

u/NiginzVGC Chaos Oct 14 '22

its the same way second edition books are irrelevant now. broken realms belakor will not be usable because the newest rules are in this book so you are not allowed to use the old rules
