For the most part I agree... but keep in mind that like 80% of them
are +1 CAF cards... hardly unbalancing on their own... there are a
few
pretty icky cards.. Growth and Regeneration come to mind... however
i've always found that Greater Daemons soak up too much fire to be
able to use the cards as much other than save your ass cards.. <shrug>
I don't think iv'e had even one game that was decided by the
diobolical use of Chaos cards...

But the Titan should be shooting the Bloodthirster as it's closing..
you can't put them on transports... and I have to go back to the fact
that it's a 300 point unit with no ranged attack that only moves 10
cm... besides... like i've stated many times.. I use titans to kill
titans ;> Bloodthirsters are for slaughtering infantry :>


For the record.. thanks for putting the time into working so hard on
the Titan CC rules... nice to see that not everyone thinks they
should
drop to the first 4 stands of infantry that happen to wander by ;>
