Warhammer 40k - Review Library 417 - Chaos Daemons, Tormentbringer
Seems rather risky...

Hello everyone! Zak Ludick here from Cape Town, South Africa and this is a Warhammer 40k - Datasheet Review post!
What is it all about? It is not there to just give a stat. It is there to give MY review of the unit in the game of Warhammer 40,000
The last of the Indexes! A new challenge!
Right, I am finally ahead and by my best estimations as I explained in this Post, I should be able to keep ahead of the release curve and get the remainder of the Indexes reviewed before those Codex releases.
So I embark on a new challenge. I have calculated that there are roughly 148 reviews to do. I have chosen my frequency and have given myself 96 days to review them all.
Today is Day 42/96.
I have reviewed 64/148.
Time elapsed: 43.75%
Review Completion: 43.24%
Nearly on par...
Hobby Fund - Working myself into the clear
With my hobby posts, I generate a hobby fund. 50% of the income goes into the fund. At the moment I put all my HBD earned from Warhammer posts into my alt account @zakl.hobbyfund.
I am collecting funds in the following ways:
- Blogging about Warhammer to earn HBD
- Accepting donations - Can be sent directly to @zakl.hobbyfund in HBD
- Selling some of the collection to friends.
At the current count I am paying off some hobby debts. I still have $226 to pay off!
Every bit counts!
Back to the review!
Chaos Daemons, Tormentbringer
10th Edition Index
A Chariot of blades and claws and tongues... this is not an Epic Hero so you can get up to three of them in your army and they run around leading a unit of up to two chariots - the Hellflayers.
I am fairly certain they are extremely dangerous just by looking at them and their points cost.
140pts for this character and 160pts for the two Hellflayers.
Let's check its stats!
Stats
Movement 14"
Toughness 6
Save 5+/4++(armor/invul/Feel No Pain)
Wounds 12
Ld 7+
OC 3
Weapons
Weapon Loadout: Lashes of Torment; Seeker Tongues; Slashing Claws.
Ranged Weapons
Lashes of Torment
12" Range, 6 Shots, Hitting on 2+, S4, AP-1 and 2 Damage each.
Assault (This weapon can be fired even if the unit Advances)
Pistol (This weapon can be shot while the bearer's unit is within engagement range of the enemy.)
Anti-Infantry 3+ (This weapon critically wounds Infantry on a 3+ regardless of toughness.)
Melee Weapons
Slashing claws
8 Attacks, Hitting on 3+, S4, AP-1 and 1 Damage each.
Devastating Wounds (Rolls of 6 to Wound cause Mortal Wounds)
Seeker tongues
4 Attacks, Hitting on 4+, S4, AP0 and 1 Damage each.
Extra Attacks (This weapon can be used alongside its main attacks)
Lethal Hits (Rolls of 6 to Hit automatically cause wounds)
Lashes of torment
6 Attacks, Hitting on 2+, S4, AP-1 and 2 Damage each.
Extra Attacks (This weapon can be used alongside its main attacks)
Anti-Infantry 3+ (This weapon critically wounds Infantry on a 3+ regardless of toughness.)
Abilities
Deep Strike - If this unit arrives on the Battlefield from Reserves, it can be set up anywhere on the battlefield more than 9" from enemy models.
Tormentbringer
While friendly Slaanesh units are within 6" of this model, melee weapons have Sustained Hits 1 (Rolls of 6 to hit cause additional hits)
Hysterical Frenzy
The unit has Fights on Death. If any model dies before it gets to fight, they fight before the model is removed.
Thoughts
This model and the unit it comes with is dangerous! Besides the above abilities the Hellflayers give the combind unit +1S and +1Dam on the charge. This gives them massive amounts of 2 and 3 damage weapons.
That makes 51 Chaos Daemon Datasheets Reviewed, putting them on 98
% Completed! The total of the remaining Index reviews is now 82.
Thank you for reading!
