====Forge World==== *'''Greater Blight Drone'''- For a flat 231pts (post-Chapter approved) you get an extremely fast moving (14" movement with 9" infiltrate) daemon that hits like a ton of bricks and (as long as you keep him away from lascannons and mortal wounds) is one hard dude to put down at 12 wounds with T7 and a 3+/5++ (no disgustingly resilient though). Oh, and he regenerates one wound per turn thanks to Infernal Regeneration. This beast comes stock with a bile maw (12" range S8 AP-2 D3 pistol 3 with rerolls of 1). Also the drone hits on 3+. Nurgle be praised. At 36" range you get a 4 shot S7 AP-1 D2 gun with 6's increasing the AP to -3. for close encounters you get a plague probe. Now being 31 more points in CA, it isn't such a great choice. You're getting into a different price point and need more offensive output to stay competitive. Take at your own risk. *'''Hellforged Dreadclaw Drop Pod''' - This flyer/drop pod/thing is a ball of spiked sex! It can transport 10 models or a Dreadnought/Helbrute and comes in via Drop Pod Assault. Moves 15" which does NOT go down as you lose wounds, though its S and A do. T7 W10 3+ with Blade struts for melee (S User, AP-2 D2) and Thermal Jets for shooting (6" Pistol D6, S6 AP1 D1, which automatically hits all units, friend and foe, within 6" with separate shooting attacks and can only be used if more enemy units are affected than allies. Can eat things in melee combat for a wound back on a 5+. When it explodes {{W40kKeyword|PSYKER}} units nearby take D6 mortal wounds rather than D3. While the tears of the loyalist scum fill the streets after watching their drop pods get pumped up to 108 pts per pod (boo-hoo), the Dreadclaw hits you in the groin with 130 pts. **One opinion: 130 points for a gimmick transport flier without the firepower or speed of a flier. Like its older brother, Kharybdis, <s>totally overshadowed by</s> different to the Storm Eagle, clocking in at 295pts. **Another opinion: 130 points to put 10 models (plus the Dreadclaw) in charge range turn one and have a flying Rhino to ram into your enemy's back<s>side</s> field. *'''Hellforged Kharybdis Assault Claw''' - Dreadclaw not have enough spikes? Ever wanted to field a model that weighs as much as its point cost? Well here you go! Seriously, it's like Forge World mails you a giant block of resin and you chisel it out and glue some pointy parts on (so that they know it's supposed to be Chaos). Having almost the same stats as a Dreadclaw (except BS4+, T8 and W16) but with more weapons/troop capacity/model weight and of course SPIKES. 300 pts gives you a flyer/drop pod that can carry 20 infantry into battle by either drop pod assault or like a normal transport. A fat 16 wounds and the ability to regain wounds on a 5+ after killing an enemy model in CC. In addition to the blade struts and thermal jet array that the Dreadclaw has, the assault claw can charge something that's Titanic, a vehicle, or a monster, and you have the option to instead use ONE Melta cutters attack, S16 AP-5 hitting on 2+ doing 2D6 damage. Additionally, to soften whatever you'reβ about to forcefully-melta-sodomise, it's equipped with 5 Hvy 3 Storm launchers S6 ap-1. **Maybe throw it at your opponent. The weight and extending spikes will bring about guaranteed victory! (And assault charges) (And ended friendships) </div>
