Brawl! Dreadnought Vs Daemon Prince



One of the most common questions I get is, "In a fight between this unit and that unit, which one is going to win?"  I did some extensive calculations when I paired an imperial knight vs a bloodthirster, but I want to make this a more regularly featured type of article.  So, I want to introduce you to "Brawl!", where I pair of two units and see who comes out on top.  First up Dreadnought vs Daemon Prince

Divination and Optimization



Conventional internet wisdom says that Divination is a gift from the emperor himself.  Let's look at some numbers and figure out when divination is going to be useful.  Not all units are created equal, so not everyone is going to get the same benefit.
