Irritating that this and The Prince's Might would fit so well in my elite-heavy Khorne deck. Guess being such a sucker for themed decks I'll have to rely on Backlash to protect my Possessed while I wait for the Slaanesh warlord. Nice and survivable unit for the cost that can contest command and be likely to survive long enough to retreat/be sacrificed.

It's useful in that those are the effects you probably most commonly want to protect your elite against. But purely defensive cards are so much less sexy than proactive ones that enhance damage output. Considering how good the Space Marine one is, I'd have loved something like a 3-coster that gives your elites Area Effect 1.

I can see these guys easily taking up a two-cost slot in a Chaos elites deck. Units like Possessed, Heldrake and Vicious Bloodletter don't really need much boosting in attack, so the extra protection is welcome for getting around those pesky exhausting/routing tricks that certain factions favour.

Absolutely brilliant against Eldorath and Archon's Terror.
