  1. Whoa, didn't realize how many Nightbringer fans were out there.

    For ppl wondering – Nightbringer deals 6.67 damage on average to Mortarion in melee. Combined with an average output of 3.56 damage after his C'tan powers (Antimatter Meteor and Gaze of Death are the most dangerous iirc), he deals about 10.226 damage on average.

  2. Plan A Salamanders flame aggressors. Use the strat to max out number of wounds (I run 5), so that's 60 hits. In the tactical doctrine with crucible I'm wounding on 4s. Still not enough for all in 1 go. So I'll make the rest up with erraticators maybe?
    Plan B. Ignore him, and just try score points.

  3. Played a game. I recommend playing a game. Played craftworlds against straight DG morty.

    Fire prisms with linked fire strat did some work, Crimson hunters rerolling to wound against flyers did some work, doom jinx guide and while to value is probably in the soak but still took 2 turns of shooting everything into him but hey, he's still dead. Going first all shoots lists really won't stress to much about it in my opinion. Sure harlequins isnt a great match up but other armies out there won't struggle. Ad mech won't break a sweat. He's tough and his soak is high but ultimately not unkillable/op

  4. Vulkan He'stan, and 6 flamestorm gauntlet aggressors, stay back for the rerolls to hit n wound. In the tactical doctrine, 3 stratagems, flamecraft for full shots, the crucible of battle plus 1 to wound, so plus 2 in tactical doctrine, and the fires of battle to deal 3 mortal wounds.

  5. I think 4D smites with GKs could take him down so long as there isnt a screen. He either he denies the smites or lets GKs pull off other psychic powers

  6. I'm suprised you didnt include Kaldor Draigo or Roboutte Guilliman in the numbers. Draigo has gone toe to toe with Mortarion before in the lore and beaten him and Guilliman is another Primarch.

  7. House Lukaris Knight Lancer on a charge w/ Khornate Target & Knight Diabolus deals
    (2/3 to hit assuming Miasma and Household bonus cancel out)*(5/6 to wound)*(7 attacks)*(7 damage)*(2/3 for DR) = 18,148

  8. Does mortarion reduce damage from mortal wounds? they are treated as 1 damage each from 3 mortal wound smites for example right so he does not reduce damage?
