    Havocs

    I'm thinking Nurgle Marked with Flakk Missiles. What say the rest of you?

    If I tell you, "You're wrong," you'll need to click this.

    Does anybody else find it odd, by the way, that the information age has led to language becoming an oblique and imprecise tool where even the most straightforward phrasing is pored over with chicken entrails and bone tossing to divine the true meaning?

    My only issue with Flakk Missiles is that you will have them and you will want to use them, but goshes if your missiles don't just want to fire at that tank in the corner.

    I like dedicated AA better, but Flakk is still useful.

    ~200 points for 4 Str 7 shots is... not very efficient :/

    Any Unit behind an Aegis Defence Line is a MUCH better option in almost every way.

    I think you are spending too many points on a Jack of All Trades unit that can only do 1 thing a turn.

    I'm still thinking ML's are better options even without the Flakk missiles.

    Only with prescience....even then it's a stretch.

    Chaos lacks Anti Tank punch. How would you equip havocs?

    Hades Autocannon is a waste. You only hit on 4s due to your Daemon being Daemonically Possessed. So statistically you'll hit with 2 of your 4 shots a turn for 170 points.

    Autocannons are my favorite way to equip havocs. Good Anti infantry and decent anti air. Not reliable at taking flyers down but they can in a pinch.

    That's not a problem with havocs, that a problem with you trying to build a strategy around not rolling 6's.
