Oof, Fatenerfer.

I have two Keeper of Secrets models I'm willing to part with for store credit. I need to get my balance back up. :)

What state are they in? Unopened? Glued? Painted?

Keeper of secrets looks fine to me.  Fateweaver, not so much.

No offence but why would a grey knight player be worried about warp charts 11 roll? It says random pycher so that means any of their models, like basic troops where as in other armies if they take a pycher it more or less a HQ choice. As i see it, grey knights lose less

Since we're working with tranlations, the exact specifics are hard to tell, it could be psyker ICs or MCs.  Or maybe the squad counts asa psyker.  Or maybe just the justicar.  Who knows.

A lot of these things tick me off more in principle, than practicality.  I don't think it's particularly OP...but that's not why it's a bad rule.  It's a bad rule because I can't ever picture it happening and the opposing player seeing it as "fun", outside those players who really are there just to roll dice and see what random crap happens.

Both fully assembled and painted. I'll probably someday regret unloading these, but I have such little time these days...

Wow Ben those models are awesomely painted! You are talented o' king of kings.. and such an offer only a mad man could refuse. But ya see I'm building an army from scratch and my painting isn't great, so I can't have one beautiful model surrounded by a sea of shitty models.. no no.. they all have to look shitty.  ;D

Wish I could take the credit. Second-hand models looking for a third-hand. :)

We got seriously shorted on certain Demon units.

Herald of Khorne, Herald of Slanesh, and Plaguebearers didn't ship.

This codex is much more how Daemons should be than the old codex.  Crazy, unpredictable, unsafe, cool... I am pretty excited...

Fateweaver is so strange that I have no idea whether he/she is any good or not... that's a good thing.   I think that his new version of the reroll power is of course nowhere near as powerful as the old one, but it's about 10 times as fun.   And I believe Ben actually predicted the existence of this power... very cool.   I think it might be  sneaky great.  A brother corbulo that can be activated once per turn... that is just so interesting...

A lot of people got hosed.  Hobby Bunker didn't even get their shipment, Pandamonieum only had Heralds of Nurgle, the Fly Drones, the Khorne Cannons, and a Chariot of Tzeentch.

580 points for a tricked out Khorne herald on a throne with Rage bubble, 2 20 man bloodletter units gives around 130 attacks at Str 5/AP 3 on the charge.

COMEDY.

They could already do that last codex, but now they cheaper and need the throne to pull that off.

The Soulgrinder is completely amazing, has a battle cannon/rail gun , skyfire, and power claw. it will literally kill anything on the board.
