Well, the riders are CSM champs. I think of it as being
kind of like the Ork Nobz mob available in the standard Ork
infantry det. Plus, it's the only place in the army they really
fit, unless you're going to create a whole new det. type.

Hmmm... well, I suppose. In that case, up the Jugger
point cost to +7 (4 for save, 1 for rampage, 2 for assault since
non-rampage abilities seem to cost 1 pt more when combined with
save - see the chaos termie upgrades as an example). They'd be
somewhat pricey, but on the other hand they'd be tough enough
and fast enough to make some potentially scary shock troops.

I don't know how recently you've seen the page, but I've
made a few minor mods recently to fix up some of the stats that
I didn't like too much (namely, the Androids). I also tweaked
the point values. In any case, I'm happy enough with everything
there that I don't think I'll be altering that page again.

Actually, just to be annoying I changed that URL yesterday. =)
Since I tend to be a perfectionist, it's probably easier just to go to
the main site and hit the individual pages from there... Anyway, I
added my idea of what the Daemon detachment should look like and fooled
with the appearance a bit.
