In 4th ed. 40k , a Daemon Prince (with Daemonic Stature, because it's possible to be a 'prince' without D. Stature) is the most terrifying vehicular can-opener in the game. ?Lots attacks (6-7 is normal), with good strength (S7 on the charge) and 2d6 Armor Penetration. ?(Land Raider? ?That sardine can was a Land Raider?) ?A statured prince (in 40k) could legitimately kill a shieldless Warhound in one CC phase with a little luck (he'd need 3 good penetrating hits). ?Now, Epic says a Daemon Prince is even more powerful than that. ?Monstrous Creature vs Vehicle is not even funny.
Carnifexs are just as feared by tank crews as daemon princes. Okay a daemon prince can fly, but a fex can rip apart a tank for only 114pts. Go all the way and splash out 260pts+ on a fex and it can take out warhounds with easy (upto 10 attacks with 10+2D6 armour pen).
Also fex can have bio plasma. A CC attack that always hits on 4+, even against skimmers and the such like which the DP would need a 6 to hit.
Maybe it is time to start asking for fex to have TK(1) attacks, now where is Jaldon for me to nag
