I am trying to figure out where to put my Agoniser Shadowfield Archon. In my 1250pt list, I have 3 Ravagers, 3 sets of 5 warriors with a blaster in venoms, and 2 assault units; Incubi in a Venom and Wyches in a Raider.

These are my 2 ideas:

1) 5 Incubi in Venom
9 Wyches (1 shardnet) in Raider with and Agoniser Hekatrix and Archon

2) 4 Incubi in venom with Archon
9 Wyches in Raider with Heamy

The points aren't exact, but its small enough where I can move some other things around.

I like the idea of having my Archon with the Incubi because of the whole power weapon retinue thing, however, the Wyches Invulnerable save, plus plasma nades, allow them to assault almost anything. Maybe throwing a Klaivex in with the Incubi would beef them up (I wish he could take the phantom grenade launcher)

Thanks in advance

In my experience: I've stopped taking Klaivex with demiklaives because it made them a little TOO good....removed units so well that I ended up being shot to death. So a unit of 5 Incubi should do you well...leaving one or two enemy models locked in combat to be removed during your opponents turn....allowing you to move on to the next target. ((Venom with dual SC's of course))

As for your Wyches; how about taking 8 with Agonizer in your Raider with both Archon and Haemy. Have Wyches disembark with Archon and taking the pain token with you ((Leaving Haemy behind to liquify things from the boat))

You'll lose one Wych, but you'll gain FNP from the pain token ((worth it))

List view would look like this with costs:

Archon (110pts)
Agoniser, Shadowfield

Haemonculus (60pts)
Liquifier Gun

8x Wyches (110pts)
Hekatrix
Agoniser

Archon with Incubi: PGL. Klaivex is nice but the demiklaives ain't worth it by miles.

Ideal Wych buff: Haemy. If you're gonna field a tarpit, why not give them FnP...

You don't think having the Archon and Heamonculus on the same raider is too big of a "shoot me first" sign?

What if I used the Klaivex without any upgrades? Is it worth the 15pts to get +1 attack, WS, Ld, and initiative?

Giving the Archon the Phantasm nade launcher seems like a must when going with the incubi, buts so flipping expensive. Is it worth it at this point level (1250)
