Checkout these must have units for Warhammer 40k that are all 100 points or less to field. How many can YOU fit in your army?
1. Astra Militaum Wyvern, 65 points – the amount of fire power just one of these can dish out is amazing, but lets be honest here no one ever fields just one. Strength 4 blasts with shred that ignore cover and are twin linked are just asking to be spammed by Guard players the world around.
2. Inquisitor with Servo Skulls, 34 Points – Another super cheap unit that crops up in top lists, this venerable ally can keep advancing units at bay with his servo skulls allowing your army the precious time it needs to deliver the killing below on their terms.
3. Lord Torquemada Coteaz, 100 points – A must have in a lot of lists, his ability to make seizes happen (or not happen in your opponents case) are legendary. Plus he is a bit tanky against small arms, and he might-ally swings his hammer as best as a non astartes can!
4. Minstorum Priest, 25 points – Literally the bards of 40k, these guys are the swiss army knives of abilities that help hold the line in combat, and get you some fresh re-rolls to boot. Just dont ask them what their leadership is, actually its probably better to buy them in two’s.
5. Space Marine Stalker Tank, 75 Points – a great all around Anti Air tank, this bad boy just got even better with all the flyers that are death from the sky-ing lately. Plus its got side armor 12, which is unheard of on a rhino chassis, so put that to good use to screen your scoring and advancing units!
