Getting Wyches into combat

What have you found the fastest and most effective way of getting our gladiators into combat? Which Obsession, Strategem combo is the best for this? Do you wwp, screaming jet, or just make the attempt for turn one assaults on foot?

Red Grief of Venom, I find it the fastest way for my self. Pretty comfy with them!

I only do assault units in larger blobs (if I care about punching power) so for me, it's 10 (or 9 with Succubus) in a Raider.

A Red Grief Raider has some neat combos with Wyches.
Step 1: Disembark Wyches
Step 2: Move Wyches close enough to charge target
Step 3. Move Raider with Advance and possibly even Aethersails stratagem over the target and within a reliable-ish charge range to the shooty unit that will vaporize your Wyches next turn
Step 4. Charge Shooty unit with Raider

Now you've delivered your dick-punch where you need it, and you've covered your Wyches from being shot up quite as hard.

Nice tip Chippen, thanks. I'll keep that one in mind for future use.

I do Red Grief with Flayed Skulls Transports (I have a Flayed skull Air wind detachment that i take my 3 transports from), they dont gain the ignore cover benefit... but so what? its just 7-10 pistols lol, i only care about the +3" movement.

I may be wrong but I was told that Cult units may only board cult transport. I don't have my books with me but I'll need to check that.

There are no cult/coven/kabal restrictions on transports in terms of passengers. They can transport DRUKHARI INFANTRY models with certain exceptions (Scourges, Grots in Venoms etc).

I don't think you can take dedicated transports for an air wing. The air wing entry doesn't have the entry for dedicated transports in it

Awesome

I physically throw the models at my opponent's deployment zone as per the new beta rules for deep strike.

But no I use a Raider.

I havent looked at the detachment in a long time, and it seems you are correct, that stinks

It's "incubi or drukari infantry" now all incubi currently are drukari, but they did include that extra on all the transports.
Ynnari incubi character?

Don't see that restriction in the index. Was it added in an errata?
Drazhar is forbidden, but not incubi.

He's the druhkari Incubi, the ynnari and CW ones will fill out the trinity.
