Немного занимательного чтива по поводу улучшения феникс лордов:

I've been looking at the Exarch Powers and what the Phoenix Lords come with, and found this out for those that missed it;
Asurmen has a 4+ invulnerable save, which can be boosted to a 3+ in a challenge if he doesn't attack (though with a S+1 AP2 master-crafted sword that forces Leadership or die tests for each unsaved wound, you may not want to). He is nasty as hell and will kill most combat characters before they get to strike.

Jain Zar causes Fear (redundant because of her mask) but - remembering she is WS7 - if she is in a challenge, she and her enemy roll a D6; if she rolls equal to or higher (and she gets +1 for higher WS) the enemy weapon counts as mundane. Poor Daemon Princes.

Karandras, with his Scorpion Claw (so he strikes at S8 AP2 with no unwieldy) can re-roll failed to wounds against the enemy if he succeeds in a D6 roll similar to Jain Zar's ability, and he also always re-rolls failed to hit and to wound rolls against monstrous creatures. Groovy, and with five attacks (two weapons) at I7, he will decimate most characters as well. Bloody hell. Not to mention granting Shrouded and Infiltrate to any unit he wants.

Fuegan is Strength five and his fire pike fires one more shot than normal. Nasty.
Baharroth has a 4+ invulnerable save, plus Hit and Run. Sweet. Cheap as hell with a decent AP3 melee weapon.
Maugan Ra.....oh dear. No-one seems to have picked up on this. His Assault 4 S6 AP5 Rending Pinning weapon? He can fire it twice in the same shooting phase - eight shots! All with Night Vision and Precision Shots on a 5+ I might add. Wow!

One thing is for certain; even though most of them lack invulnerable saves, the Phoenix Lords are nasty. They will seriously rip most combat characters in the game to shreds.

so here is the missing link:

banshee mask: a unit assaulted by models with with banshee masks has -5 initiative. (min 1)

eldar jetibke: a unit with eldar jetbike has a 3+ armor save with twin linked shuricen catapults. (no T increase)

ghost helm: when suffering a perils of the warp the user can sacrifice a unspend warpcharge to ignore the wound

harlequin belt: units do not get slowed by terrain

khaindar targeting: enemys dont get jink saves against shooting from units with khaindartargetting

power shield : 4+ invul

falcon wings: a unit with this upgrade counts as jump infantry.

falcon grenade launcher:
if a unit deepstrikes and has no mishap (lol) can one model can use a special shooting attack in its movement phase. after firing the grenade launcehr the unit may still shoot in the shooting phase, if possible the unit has to fire on the same target:

24" s 4 ap 4 assault 1 ignores cover, grenade shower

grenade shower: no line of sight needed. if the unit has at least 6 falcon grenade launchers it is a larg blast template. if there are less grenade launchers in the unit it is a small blast instead.

mandiblaster: a modell with mandiblasters automatically causes a s 3 hit at initiative 10. wich cannot be modified by any means. in a challenge this has to go against the challenger.

flickerfield: 5+

scatterfield: 5+ invul. if the model passes a invulnerable save all units (friend and foe) within 6" that are not locked in close combat are counted as having been hit by a weapon with the blending special rule. a unit that passes the test once, is for the remainder of that phase immune to blinding.

ah yeah acrobatics from banshees grants +3" on run rolls. if the unit consists entirely of banshees.

Асаджуд!

Возрадуйся! Ибо скорпионов бафнули охренеть как) Пауков бафнули - радость для Ерофеана. Риперов бафнули - хз для кого радость. Баньши - вродекак остаются сомнительным выбором, ибо, по слухам, у них нет гранат и всё то же ап3. Ястребы - юзать ситуационно, идеальный вариант против лёгкой пехоты в ковре. Авенжеры просто нплохи. Драконы остаются лучшим антитанк юнитом, который превращает эти ваши ЛР в кучу оплавленного шлака. Сияющие копья - можно побаловаться.
