The CSM DP is flying!

New FAQ's are online.

Page 85 – Special Equipment, Wings.
Replace this entry with “Infantry models equipped with wings
add ‘Jump’ to their unit type. Daemon Princes with wings add
‘Flying’ to their unit type.”

And a million Chaos Marine players rejoiced, for 130 pt base cost flying monstrous creatures are awesome!

Personally, I've been running 2x Mark of Tzeentch ones with 2 BRB psychic powers. Even when playing them not flying, they are awesome :D (especially at only 170 pts)

[heretic marine]

YES!!!

You don't already have 2 Daemon Princes?! Even before this FAQ, they are the best HQ choice in our codex! You have better stats than a Lord, same powers as a Sorcerer, and for less points! Now they have some added defense against the hail of bolter fire that kills them real quick. Probably the only Special Character that came close to points to usefulness ratio was Abaddon, and 2 Daemon Princes are only a few more points than him.

Yup. Expect DP to go up at least 20pts in new codex...

[SacredChao]

Pshaw, at least 40 points :P Wings in Tyranids and Daemonic Flight in Chaos Daemons is 60 pts in both, ours is 20 points :P
