====HQ==== <tabs> <tab name="Succubus"> *Buff Vector for your {{WH40Kkeyword|<wych cult>}} units and a decently priced melee beatstick. Comes with 6 attacks by default, with so many ways to make the most of what she can do. She lets her girls re-roll 1s to wound in melee, which is a sore sight better for them; only problem is ensuring she's nearby to provide her 6" aura, as the Wyches may sometimes charge out of range of it. The Succubus herself comes stock with an Archite Glaive, which lost its hit penalty while remaining just as deadly, and can be paired with a pistol or an agoniser. Her 4++ Dodge Save (that works outside of close combat now! Double yay!) will also keep her safe that much longer and don't ever forget about her drugs. All in all, this codex maintained what the Succubus needed to truly shine as a badass leader for your Wyches! ** Succubi can (and maybe should) swap the Agoniser for a Blast Pistol, which can deal with the heavily armored targets they struggle with in melee. No Escape does make it more likely you'll find yourself in a situation where you want to fire a 6" pistol. ** You can also replace both the glaive and agoniser with a wych cult weapon. The razorflails make her a bigger whirlwind of pain, but Hydra Gauntlets can also be nice to make sure your attacks have a better chance of wounding, and the shardnet & impaler are definitely the best of the three against anything with more than one wound. ** At all times, bear in mind that a Succubus + Wyches have an uphill battle in front of them trying to compete with Drazhar + Incubi. One of the ways you can do that is by leaning into Objective Secured, but another is No Escape. When in doubt, bring more shardnets. </tab> <tab name="Master Succubus (Upgrade)"> *Indeed, there is also an upgrade for Succubi despite the lack of one historically. Cool! **'''Show Stealer:''' Your mistress can consolidate an additional 3" and does not need to move towards the closest enemy when doing so. Now your Succubus can engage in Harlequin style shenanigans by jumping in and out of combat while ignoring all return hits. Feel free to combine with the Red Grief unique strat to get back into your transport! **'''Relic - The Dancer's Edge:''' Pretty fierce for a melee weapon, S+2 AP-4 D2 and any 6 to wound bypasses Invulns. **'''Warlord Trait - Whirlwind of Death:''' Turn your succubus into a horde-blender! Before consolidation, you can improve their attacks to 3+however many models there are within 2". **'''Hekatrix Bloodbrides:''' They're back too. Whenever you grab a master succubus (or Lelith), you can make a pack of wyches into Bloodbrides. They get 2+WS and +1Ld, and any time they trigger Blade Artists, they improve their AP by 3, enough to gut space marines. </tab> </tabs> '''Ynnari note:''' A thing to keep in mind with a Ynnari Succubus, you get a quality of life bonus. Simply put your re-roll 1s bubble will not only affect your Wych 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
