====Kabals====
*'''Archon:''' The very customizable leader for your {{WH40Kkeyword|<kabal>}} army. Has the standard re-roll 1s to hit aura. He comes stock with a Huskblade, which you can switch out for an Agoniser, Power Sword, or Venom Blade, and a Splinter Pistol, which you can swap out for a Blast Pistol, or, using the Index, a Blaster.  Can also take a Phantasm Grenade Launcher, again using the Index.  No reason not to splurge, really, since all his upgrades are useful. The Blaster will do work if you plan on keeping your Archons in their Venoms, and is a very worthy purchase. If you do wanna get in melee, then by all means go for a Blast Pistol and Huskblade, because you will just murder any multiwound characters with that setup.
** Archon has an in-built 2++ (that is not re-rollable by any means), which is lost after the first failed save roll, meaning he might tank a surprising amount of attacks, or might whiff immediately, and lose in invuln for the game. Don't count on it to perform. Saw one deployed aggressively during a tournament killed by eliminators top of turn one because he rolled a one on his very first save roll. Don't EVER count on his invuln to save him. If it does, awesome! but any time you really need him to make it, assume you'll whiff the first roll and lose it. Gonna say it one more time, because the person who wrote in this article before me seemed to be in love with this character as the "best objective camper in the game!!!!" because he has a 2+ invuln and a 6+ fnp from power from pain. DO NOT COUNT ON HIS INVULN SAVE TO WORK, EVER.  BTW, to address the guy who wrote that the archon is the best obj camper, literally almost any other character in the game is as good, or better than him (other than maybe guard characters, but they have oodles of cheap troops to camp objectives or screen objective camping characters). Ignoring points restrictions, something like a terminator character with T5, and a 2+ 4++ (I could also site guilliman, with T6, 2+ 3++, 9W, and the ability to get back up when he dies as the best objective camping character, but I won't.), will last way longer than an archon. Even trying to keep the same faction and points value, a Succubus or Haemonculus both have similar points value, and have access to a 4+ invuln, that won't go away when you roll a 1, and the Haemonculus even has T5 (after his buff), plus they both get the same 6+ fnp. 
*The Agonizer deals with T4 and up 1 wound models while the Huskblade deals with T3 and T4 characters and other multiwound models (Swarms especially).

'''Ynnari note:'''
A thing to keep in mind with a Ynnari Archon you get a quality of life bonus. Simply put your reroll 1's bubble will not only affect your Kabal units but your other Ynnari Drukhari too! Kabalites, Wyches, Incubi, etc. This opens up a wide variety of opportunities so be mindful of the tricks you can pull that the others can't.
