Hi all,
I believe Darkson and Spubbbba are right - Daemons do mutate, by getting "gifts". So M (on doubles?) makes sense.

If Khorne Thugs don't get M access then you need to remove it from Pact Marauders.
I don't really think that I do, any more than I need Thugs to have access to P+S skills.
I think it would be perfectly fine to have the lowest level of minion be non-mutating.
Kind of like hobgolins.
But I'd like to hear what others think. It's not like I'm married to the idea of non-mutant linemen.

How about having a Gorebeast instead of a Herald as the Big Guy? Think that would fit the Fluff quite well and also means your not having a strength 5 Herald which may be a little too much considering the size, just an Idea.
Hmmm - Gorebeasts are a lot like steeds, aren't they?
Either way, I checked out the stats for a Herald, and he is perfectly capable of mauling an Ogre, so I don't think that ST5 is in any way problematic. (In the latest warhammer stats I could find, he even had S5 - along with WS7, which is what would make him more dangerous than an ogre).
Cheers
