Warshrine as a cannonball catcher; Very successful

I have found from my experience in my most recent tournament (last saturday), that the warshrine of Tzeentch being used to cover your deamon prince until he is close enough to assault/cast spells has won me games. I faced a Dwarf gunline and he was not able to shoot my DP once until my DP was close enough to choir all of his warmachines.


I ended up getting best general (not best overall because I was comped for running a DP and 2 gore beast chariots)

The problem with that is that the warshrine is not a monster any more but a chariot and as that it does not stop cannonballs. Only MI/MB/MC, Monsters and obstacles can stop cannonballs.
Before the new book I also used it as a cannonball catcher...

The Warshrine wasn't a Monster last edition either. It just moved and fought as one.

The other problem is it has 6" movement and can't march. No way my DP is hiding behind something that moves 6" a turn.

Trolls are better since chariots don't stop cannonballs.

So it was. That'll teach me for remembering the army book instead of the BRB.
