Thoughts on Negation Angels
Negation Angels in a nutshell
Nice, effective, and expensive advance deploying skirmishers.
Whereas Clockwork Angels are slightly more skewed to dancing around the enemy and harassing them from ranged (ex: CRA and Repo), the Negation angels are slightly more skewed to jumping from terrain feature to terrain feature, and then charging into melee (ex: Prowl, Gang, auto Paralysis on melee attack). We want to keep this divide between the two groups of angels. Both are capable of attacking the enemy at range or melee, but the Clockwork Angels should remain a better ranged option than the Negation Angels, more nimble as well.
Combos & Synergies
- Aurora1 - They let her flank off of them, but more importantly she makes them 2" faster with Aerogenesis and lets them boost melee attack and damage rolls with Arcane Might. With her feat granting parry and reposition they become reliable assassins.
- Aurora2 - Extra speed and damage from the feat and they are eligible for her directives.
- Destructotron 3000 offers a to hit buff on the ranged weapons.
- Prefect Hypatia - She gives them Apparition with her leadership bubble.
- Void Archons need friendly models with souls to fuel them and in Strange Bedfellows only Angels really fit the bill.
Drawbacks & Downsides
- Their armor is tinfoil - they die to blasts and magic attacks.
- They are usually too fast to take advantage of the Enigma Foundry's support
- One wound and small numbers means the unit can easily be wiped out in one turn
Tricks & Tips
- Spread out. It is their most useful tool against blast damage and electro leaps.
- Their only defense is their speed and high DEF. Look for concealment or cover all the time, and launch hit&run raids from there.
- Never bother aiming your charge range is longer, your paralysis is more reliable and your damage is greater. Removal of the electrical damage type also helps vs Cygnar or an Earthborn Dire Troll
