Hello everyone! Zak Ludick here from Cape Town, South Africa and this is a Warhammer 40k - The Great Unit Review Wheel! post!
Now known as the Unit Review Library!
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 this series, I will review one unit at a time, picking them randomly.
So let me spin the wheel again and see what I get:
Thousand Sons, Exalted Sorcerer
10th Edition Index
Right, back to my mortal enemies, the Thousand Sons.
This Chaos army is all about sorcery and this is a sorcerer... so he should be quite powerful.
100pts for a single model
£37.50 for a box of 3 Sorcerors, one of them can be on a Disc of Tzeetch, which is a review for another day as it is a different datasheet! This box would cost 151.78 HIVE at current prices.
Let's check those stats!
Stats
Movement 6"
Toughness 4
Save 3+/4++(armor/invul/Feel No Pain)
Wounds 5
Ld 6+
OC 1
Weapons
The Exalted Sorcerer has one Psychic attack and a choice of 3 different pistols:
Ranged:
Astral Blast - 18" Range, D6 Shots, Hitting on 2+, S6 AP-3 Damage D3 each.
Blast, Devastating Wounds. This weapon does not have the pistol keyword so the Exalted Sorcerer cannot fire both a pistol and Astral Blast.
This pistols are either a bolt pistol with AP -1, a plasma pistol or a hand flamer... I would probably... not really worry. Warpflame pistol or Plasma pistol.
Melee:
A choice of two different weapons.
Force weapon
5 Attacks, Hitting on 2+, S6, AP-1 and D3 Damage.
Prosperine khopesh
4 Attacks, Hitting on 2+, S5, AP-2 and 2 Damage.
Abilities
Deep Strike, Scout 6"
Arcane Shield
Just like a Space Marine Librarian, he gives his unit a 4+ Invul save.
Rebind Rubricae
With this ability, While leading a unit he has a chance to repair his unit.
Roll a D6.
On a 1 the unit takes D3 mortal wounds (a backfire)
On a 2-5 return 1 destroyed model
On a 6 return 2 destroyed models.
Thoughts
It is a pricey character at 100pts, but he adds decent shooting to a unit and massive defensive buffs with the invul and returning the dead Thousand Sons to the unit.
I feel that most Thousand Sons players would be running at least one of them in their army, if not two, to safe-guard some Battle Line units to take objectives.
Thank you for reading!
