Editing Flayed Ones (section)

===8th edition===

They're okay. They're still an elites choice (and cost almost as much per model as Praetorians) but with their deep strike and +1 to morale tests for nearby enemy units they can be very useful for probing the enemy back lines. Unfortunately with the deep strike rules they're gonna need a 9" charge to get into combat on the same turn they deep strike and have only melee attacks, but if they do get into combat they can seriously fuck up [[MEQ]] and below. A full squad of FO can deal out a face-melting [[Rape|''40 attacks per turn with a re-roll to wound'']]. Take them with [[Anrakyr the Traveller|Anrakyr]] to deal out 50 attacks and watch your opponent cry as you delete his units. Still relying on making that 9" charge though (although you can reduce it to 8" if you use Anrakyr's MWBD on the flayed ones, also meaning you'll get [[Anal_circumference|50 attacks hitting on 2s]]).
