Disciples of Lust

	===Disciples of Lust===		===Disciples of Lust===
	While the Guardian Brothers have to rely on auxilia sisters to block off spells, the Knight Brothers can pull it off themselves without such an absurd price hike, while your exclusive choices also come with storm rifles. ~~This also comes with the perk~~ of ~~being~~ able ~~cast by themselves~~, ~~which gives you some well~~-~~needed support on casting~~.		Lust is all about speed. All of your troops are able to get Fast, though your non-hero units are paying out the nose for the opportunity.

	====Special Rules====		====Special Rules====
	*''~~Aegis~~:'' ~~Your entire army can block powers as if they were psychic~~. ~~In the case of Psychics~~, ~~they instead~~ get a +~~1 to block~~. ~~This is available to all your infantry choices~~.		*''Lust Speed:'' Fast v1.5. Bikers and Possessed get +3" to advance, but rush and charge actions get +6". Yeah, you know what you want.

	====Psychic Spells====		====Psychic Spells====
	*'''~~Ward~~ (4+):''' Enemy unit within 12" suffers -1 to ~~hit with melee~~ on their next turn. Important since you're only protected by a mere 2+ save for the most part.		*'''Twisted Esctasy (4+):''' Enemy unit within 12" suffers -1 to shoot on their next turn. Important since you're only protected by a mere 2+ save for the most part.
	*'''~~Cleanse~~ (4+):''' Enemy unit ~~within 12"~~ takes 2 AP 2 ~~hits~~. ~~Somewhat equivalent to~~ psychic ~~blast, though it hits the entire unit~~.		*'''Seizure (4+):''' Enemy unit (range indeterminate) takes an AP 2 Deadly 3 hit. Another psychic sniping spell.
	*'''~~Warp~~ (5+):''' ~~Enemy~~ unit within 12" ~~takes -1 to defense, which you'll want if you're struggling to turn the tide~~.		*'''Pleasure (5+):''' Friendly unit within 12" gets Regeneration whenever they suffer wounds next. Awesome.
	*'''~~Doom~~ (5+):''' Enemy ~~model~~ within 12" takes an AP ~~3 hit~~, ~~making this~~ a ~~prime sniping spell~~.		*'''Pain (5+):''' Enemy unit within 12" takes 3 AP 2 hits. Not much, but it can soften up a bigger unit.
	*'''~~Strike~~ (6+):''' Friendly unit within 12" ~~can~~ immediately ~~shoot~~.		*'''Frenzy (6+):''' Friendly unit within 12" immediately charges 6" and gets +1 to hit them that turn. Most spells just settle for moving you into combat, but this makes sure the charge actually takes.
	*'''~~Purge~~ (6+):''' ~~Two enemy units~~ within 6" take ~~2 AP 1 hits~~ each, making it ~~comparable to Lightning Cloud~~.		*'''Overload (6+):''' Enemy unit within 6" take a single wound for each model, making it way deadlier for hordes.

	====Units====		====Units====
	*'''~~Knight Champion~~:''' ~~A very costly hero, but you~~ get ~~quite a bit. Alongside Aegis and Psychic 1~~, you ~~also get Combat Master~~, ~~which gives you one~~ of ~~four different styles each round you're in~~ melee (+1 to ~~hit, AP +1, Rending~~ or ~~Impact 1). This champion~~ is ~~a through and through beatstick with psychic powers. If you want support~~, ~~pick~~ the ~~generic heroes~~.		*'''Lord of Lust:''' These particular champions get access to the noise rifles, giving you some volume of fire, and the lust whip for a bunch of melee attacks at AP 1. Their alternative to War Chant or Havoc Tactics is the Blessing of Lust, giving an entire unit the benefit of Lust Speed.


	*'''~~Knight~~ Brothers:''' Each of these ~~boys has~~ a ~~storm~~ rifle, ~~an energy sword and Aegis, which is plenty worth~~ the ~~price hike~~. ~~They~~ have ~~a very unique selection of weapons. Their guns are now an incinerator (a flamer with AP 1), a psychic silencer (a minigun-lite with 6 shots) or~~ the ~~psychic cannon (AP 2 and rending). In melee, they can swap their energy sword for an energy staff (less attacks but it's poisoned)~~, the ~~halberd (less attacks but AP 2), twin energy falchions (Rending) and daemon hammer (2 attacks, but now AP 4 and Deadly 3). You can also grant them Impact 1~~, ~~Ambush~~ or ~~Teleport (so you can jump 6" anywhere without regard for terrain and isn't~~ the ~~same as ambush for some reason). Oh, and these guys can be psychic too, so joy~~.		*'''Noise Brothers:''' Each of these guys can buy a noise rifle, ramping up the firing rate considerably. If you need alternatives, you only have either the noise amplifier, the flamethrower based on noise, or the noise autocannon.
	*'''~~Purgation~~ Brothers:''' ~~Knights with Relentless~~. They ~~now have free reign of the special weapons~~ but ~~can't specialize~~ in melee. ~~They can also be psychic too.~~		*'''Agony Brothers:''' Take the war berserkers and replace their murderboners for a speed habit. They're not only fast, but also act as an annoyance for anyone tied up in melee, since they make enemies take a -1 to hit in combat. This makes them very annoying to leave alone, which might be enough to justify buying them.
	*'''Knight Destroyers:''' Destroyers are already dangerous, so you know for sure that stacking all the benefits of Knights makes them ~~deadlier as well as obscenely more expensive. Their weapon choices mirror the base knights~~, ~~but they can also grab a standard (for Fear) and Regeneration as well as the ability~~ to ~~give everyone Impact 3~~.		*'''Endless Brothers:''' In case you wanted a gunline with Relentless, the endless brothers can help satisfy. Though they have short-ranged carbines, each one still fires twice.


	*'''~~Knight Walker~~:''' ~~This walker lacks its guns. However~~, ~~it is Tough 18 and psychic, making it a tank in both a physical and mental sense. You~~ can ~~grant heavy guns that won't replace your fists and then take either an energy great sword or daemon hammer for extra punch~~. ~~You can also grant it Teleport to surprise enemies or Regeneration if you want to drive it deep into battle~~.
