This will be a very tough game. Larry has the tools to blow up my Rhinos and kill the guys inside quite easily. I will need to stay back on turn one and let him get closer to me before raining fire upon his quick assault units. Luckily the Bolters will do a lot of damage to the Flesh Hounds, unless of course his Sorcerers get Invisibility or Endurance.
The toughest thing for me will be his Helldrake and Fireraptor. They will both be doing a ton of damage to my army and I will not have enough firepower left standing in the late game to bring them down. The Fireraptor will be killing vehicles while the Helldrake will be eating one to two units a turn. I really need to get some skyfire nexus objectives!
As for the mission I should still be able to play to it, and make the game really challenging for Larry. He will need to take my vehicles away quickly with his Melta Guns and the Fireraptor, otherwise I will be able to rack up points towards the end of the game. I will need to win the Maelstrom and depending on what the primary is, gear my movements towards that as well.
I believe my army is up for the task and will bring home the W for the Emperor but only time will tell and KDK is tricky. Hope to see you all there!

The KDK army will have a tough time playing towards any objective based game since the Battle Company is all objective secured. He will need to charge into the Battle Company asap and take out the mobility of the Rhinos. He will also be very dependent on both the Helldrake and Fireraptor coming on early. All the firepower will be needed to take down the Battle Company.
Larry will be able to summon in new units and buff his current ones with the Sorcerers. The summoned units will help for late game and will also chew through 5 man Marine units. He will have to be very careful of my hit and run off and will have to wipe out each 5 man he is in combat with or watch them slip away onto objectives.
The Helldrake and Chaos Lord will be doing work on killing my little units and should help to win the mission. His Fireraptor will also chew through my vehicles which will be needed. He wants to get first turn so that I only have one turn to shoot his Hounds before assault. Once he gets into assault I will not be able to use my superior firepower against him.
Should be a very close game and if the Chaos Gods see it fit should be another Chaos Victory. Don’t miss out!
Are subscribers the only ones who can win the ghostkeel?
if past broadcasts are anything to go by, no.
Its just that subs have 3x the number of Raffle Entries as non subs.
Pretty sure in the past they just randomly picked a name, hopefully they have a program to use now
Julien is correct. Subscribers have much higher odds of winning.
This will be interesting. Why only 1 spawn each squad? Should be interesting but that’s just asking for a free kp, but then again I don’t know rules on the fire raptor so some transport shananigans?
The Fire Raptor is a gun ship and will chew through Marines and Vehicles.
hope it is a gg!
The 2 spawn are to die for Blood tithe points.
It seems to me that most of this list could fit into a Blood host detachment though. With the free tithe point a turn, I wonder what turned him off using that..
It’s probably the 150+ Points for a Unit of Possessed. That’s the usual stumbling block when people decide not to go with the Blood Host.
I dont see that as problem, because with the Bloodhost, you get enough free stuff to make it less of a problem.
