View Full Version : Does the Golden Host make Sanguinor playable?

The Golden Host is 2-5 Sanguinary Guard plus Sanguinor or Dante, and they get to (disorderly) Charge the turn they enter via Deep Strike. Sure Dante is amazing, but wasn't the big difference between the two simply that Sanguinor was unable to join a squads?

I believe Sanguinor is synonymous with "murdered by boltguns", but does the ability to charge as soon as you enter the board negate that weakness?

If several squads of Sanguinary Guard deep strike, Sanguinor lands in the midst of them. All the Sanguinary Guard declare charges and they get 1+ Attacks if they are close enough to Sanguinor. The poor Sanguinary Guard eat all the overwatch fire, then Sanguinor floats over to whatever assault looks most favourable.

Yup, that's what I would do. Or maybe punch a light vehicle.
