Traitors Hate - Helforged Warpack Review/First Thoughts

Moving on from the Core choices of the Black Crusade detachment and I have decided to roll through them in the order they appear in the book. Simple way to keep me in line of the stuff I like and makes me write about the stuff I don't. So let's jump to it.

Traitors Hate: Maelstrom of Gore & Core choice round up.

Traitors Hate has received quiet a lot of the "Oh, it's another Khorne book" from some Chaos Marine players, probably because Kharn is on the front, Kharn and Bezerkers are in the fluff and there is a formation for them. Oddly enough, it couldn't be further from a Khorne book. With 12 universal formations VS 2 Khorne specific formations and 4 new psychic power disciplines there isn't that much flakes to be had. Sorry, but the pun had to be done. This quick post will probably be doing the usual and bashing this formation, because it has Bezerkers in it.

Traitors Hate: The Lost and the Damned 'A Tide of Traitors'

After completing the lost and the damned reviews one of my good 40K gaming mates who is a lot better than me, like ETC level better, told me I was a bit too lenient with the Warband Formation. I will admit that there is a small soft spot for it as it is finally a formation that has semi competent and decent marines in it with rules that can help it win games, however from now on I will try to be a bit more 'nitty gritty' with these reviews as some of the formations can be laughable. So Lost and the Damned, GO!

Traitors Hate: Chaos Warband Part 2

I'm going to try and write some this stuff up earlier during the daytime as recently I have been typing away all night into early morning, and that just doesn't do the blog well and doesn't do my sleeping pattern any good. So far we have established that the Lord and Sorcerer both benefit largely from this formation and that Terminators and Chosen are at an equal standing of 'which one do I prefer' with possessed being forgotten about and standard marines being the tax of the formation. So, onto the next blocks of units available Raptors, Talons and Bikes and Havocs and Helbrutes.
