Curious on how people play deamons and deep striking. Do people deep strike aggressively(0-8") far away (20 or more inches) or somewhere in between?? Some of the deamon players around here have different thoughts on the matter. I know it is a unit to unit basis, but even the units that are away from the battle and need to be near each other, how do people deep strike, knowing 2/3 of the time they scatter??

Generally aggressive is the best game in town for Daemons.

I'll only ever icon in GUO's, Bloodcrushers, and Flamers. GUO's are so dang slow, Bloodcrushers have such a huge footprint, and flamers are basically suicide squads so a bad scatter for any of them means you're out something fierce. I like to try and plop fateweaver close and bring in everyone around him so they don't get blasted to death in the enemy shooting phase. Anything with a reach: fleet, wings, guns or jetbike silly screamers I try to keep out of rapid fire range. I've been having trouble placing my bloodletters somewhere where they won't die tho, they look so great on paper but I haven't been able to get them to work well for me.
