	***'''Changelings:''' This. There is no unit more pathetic as they, for they will immediately die if hit by anything with only a 6+ defense to save them. You can try to use them to hit back anything while protected by the blues, but by this point the unit's lost.		***'''Changelings:''' This. There is no unit more pathetic as they, for they will immediately die if hit by anything with only a 6+ defense to save them. You can try to use them to hit back anything while protected by the blues, but by this point the unit's lost.
	*'''Screechers:''' These guys are very mobile with Fast and Strider while Tough(3) lets them take a blow before they can close in to attack. Their role is to pretty much tie up units so that your others can focus their fire at others, but they can also be the retinue for a disc-riding Champion.		*'''Screechers:''' These guys are very mobile with Fast and Strider while Tough(3) lets them take a blow before they can close in to attack. Their role is to pretty much tie up units so that your others can focus their fire at others, but they can also be the retinue for a disc-riding Champion.
	*'''~~Flame Daemons~~:''' Pretty much the upgrade to Change Warriors. Each of them has three Rending attacks but have no AP in melee. While they're capable of fighting up close with three attacks hitting on a 4+ and Tough(3), that shooting's what they are best at.		*'''Scorchers:''' Pretty much the upgrade to Change Warriors. Each of them has three Rending attacks but have no AP in melee. While they're capable of fighting up close with three attacks hitting on a 4+ and Tough(3), that shooting's what they are best at.
	*'''~~Exalted Flame Daemon~~:''' A bigger ~~Flame Daemon~~ with double the Tough and double the shots and at a slightly longer range. Fear makes it a little better at supporting mobs, but its melee value is just as weak as the other Flame Daemons.		*'''Great Scorcher:''' A bigger Scorcher with double the Tough and double the shots and at a slightly longer range. Fear makes it a little better at supporting mobs, but its melee value is just as weak as the other Flame Daemons.

	*'''Screecher Chariot:''' Essentially what happens when you put an ~~Exalted Flame Daemon~~ onto a vehicle. This allows the daemon to cover more ground with Fast and Strider and it gets a bunch of extra melee attacks as well. As a bonus, their flames manage to get AP(1) but no Rending.		*'''Screecher Chariot:''' Essentially what happens when you put an Great Scorcher onto a vehicle.

	*'''Soul Daemon of Change:''' The Soul daemon gives you a much beefier monster that can stand strong. Its Power Claw gives you something good for ripping open tanks and elites, which you can replace for a Power Blade if you want more attacks better suited for hordes of infantry. The Change Cannon lets you blast infantry and you can make it a Heavy Change Cannon so you can blow up tanks. Considering that Warp relies more on massed rolls for effectiveness, the Change Cannon is the most effective gun to equip while your choice of melee weapon depends more on how much you can afford.		*'''Soul Daemon of Change:''' The Soul daemon gives you a much beefier monster that can stand strong.

	*'''Avatar of Change:''' The avatar is the emphasis of everything Change is. Max psychic casting, Stealth, flight, Tough(18) and incredible stats in combat.

	** ''Melee:'' The stock Exalted Power Staffs give a bunch of ~~AP(1)~~ Rending attacks, either of which you can exchange for an Exalted Power Hammer for a few less attacks with Blast(3) to handle mobs. The Exalted Power Gauntlets provide AP(3) if you intend on fighting monsters.

	**''Shooting:'' You can also buy an Exalted Magic Bolt in place of a weapon if you want some form of shooting, giving a flurry of AP(1) attacks for a decent price.

	*'''Harbinger of Change:''' A lesser hero in almost any way except for base stats, though this means that you aren't spending so much for max casting when Psychic(1) may suffice. You can also buy back Flying and Psychic(2) if you feel it necessary. For most games, this may likely be your go-to hero as it hits that happy medium between cost and effectiveness. If that's not your style, you can still buy Ascended Daemon for an extra weapon and more Tough.		*'''Harbinger of Change:''' A lesser hero in almost any way except for base stats, though this means that you aren't spending so much for max casting when Psychic(1) may suffice.

	*'''Change Warriors:''' Your basic infantry are the only ones out of the entire army to have a stock shooting weapon, though it's pretty meager. Their CCWs are also rather meager at only ~~an AP(1)~~ attack that hits on a 4+. Also unique among them is their ability to gain Psychic(1), giving you an extra venue of casting. You can buy a Command Group for Fear, and then complement it with a Banner of Change to make their melee attacks AP(2). If you're planning on extra melee, you're likely to buy them extra ~~CCWs~~, though you could also buy them ~~magical CCWs~~ for Rending or a ~~Heavy weapons~~ for AP(3).		*'''Change Warriors:''' Your basic infantry are the only ones out of the entire army to have a stock shooting weapon, though it's pretty meager.

	* '''Blood Warriors:''' Your basic infantry has Furious and AP(2) on their attacks, making them very keen on ripping apart most infantry. Grab a command group and they get Fear while a Banner of War gives Impact(1). You can also give the unit a different set of weapons, be it a second CCW, Rending or AP(4). These guys benefit more than any other from exploiting Ambush, since they have no other means of getting close and will die if they get hit. It might help to consider merging units in those instances, especially if you use them to hide a Champion.		* '''Blood Warriors:''' Your basic infantry has Furious and AP(2) on their attacks, making them very keen on ripping apart most infantry.

	*'''Blood Hounds:''' Blood hounds are a bit more aggressive in combat with 3+ quality. While Fast, you'll notice that they trade potency for weight of attacks as they only get AP(1) on their bites. You can buy the pack Resistance or Impact(1) depending on what exactly you plan on doing with them.		*'''Blood Hounds:''' Blood hounds are a bit more aggressive in combat with 3+ quality.

	*'''Beast Riders:''' The beasts give blood warriors a lot: Tough(3) on a 2+ defense, Fast, Impact(3) and another set of attacks. However, they are incredibly expensive at 230 points. If you plan on bringing them, then you'd best know where to throw them and make sure that absolutely nothing stops them from their goal.		*'''Beast Riders:''' The beasts give blood warriors a lot: Tough(3) on a 3+ defense, Fast, Impact(3) and another set of attacks.

	**''Melee:'' Its base Exalted Fire Axes are already a monstrosity of a weapon, able to carve holes in near anything, and you can trade either for an Exalted Fire Hammer, sacrificing attacks for crowd-busting. The Exalted Flame Gauntlets provide you with AP(4) if you find yourself frequently facing high defense units that don't necessarily have too many Tough - after all, you have A9. Your most costly option is an Exalted Flame Spear, sacrificing attacks for AP(4) Deadly(3) - the thing made to puncture vehicles and titans.		**''Melee:'' Its base Exalted Fire Axes are already a monstrosity of a weapon, able to carve holes in near anything, and you can trade either for an Exalted Fire Hammer, sacrificing attacks for crowd-busting.

	**''Shooting:'' While normally the Avatar of War has no shooting, you can replace a weapon for an Exalted War Whip for some measure of shooting. While not very long-ranged, it's still a barrage of attacks at AP(2), capable of ripping apart mobs before charging. You also have the option for a Symbol of War, a costly means for out-of-turn damage that doesn't count as shooting.		**''Shooting:'' While normally the Avatar of War has no shooting, you can replace a weapon for an Exalted War Whip for some measure of shooting.

	*'''Harbinger of War:''' The Harbinger daemon is essentially a diet Avatar daemon - for war's instance this means no flying (by default; you can buy this back), fewer attacks with all weapons despite otherwise being the same and being only Tough 6. This makes for a better place for a Symbol of War, though you will still stand out as a target~~.
