I just had a thought. Can any non-named character in TT stand up to a Daemon Prince with the Murder Sword in a challenge?
EW blood angels codex was so OP in lore when it came out. also thats a named character. and yes, a hive tyrant can. also, here. have some slaaneshi heresy.
oh i though u were talking about lore. but...can you say...RANGED ATTACKS + WINGS + STRAFING TACTICS?!? if it has to be melee...i dont have the most recent codexes of any race, nor the rulebook, so i cant say.
I'd even say lore wise Daemon Princes would probably win, they're a lot LOT more powerful than they're given credit for. Same for Greater Daemons sadly, the summoning of a single Greater Daemon should spell doom for half a system at least. Anyways, Daemon Princes can counter wings with wings. Though Hive Tyrants have the advantage at ranged.
well, i agree, but so are hive tyrants. hive tyrants = carnifexes, if not greater than, and carnifexes = thirsters (though thirsters are always a good bit ahead) greater daemons > daemon princes USUALLY, so yeah.
