Codex: Chaos Daemons

Product Information

While the Shadow Of Chaos doesn’t innately do anything, it synergizes with all sorts of other rules in the codex, and is a key part of how this army will function in 10th Edition. Corrupt Realspace is simple but effective, letting you retain control of an objective until an opponent controls it, even if you walk away from it.

Codex: Chaos Daemons Emerges From a Tear in the Warp

If your army is led by a Warlord with the TZEENTCH DAEMON Faction keywords, you can give one of the following Hellforged Artefacts to an EXALTED LORD OF CHANGE model from your army, instead of giving them a Hellforged Artefact from another source. They also have synergy with the Shadow Of Chaos rule, adding another level of strategy to how you use your units. This will come in handy for sniping vulnerable units with Tzeentch Flamers, or flipping an objective with some OC2 or OC3 Plaguebearers.

A model with this Relic knows one additional psychic power from the Nurgle discipline (see Codex: Chaos Daemons). It's an extremely satisfying read just as a work of fiction, and lays the groundwork for much of the army building you'll put together in this book. In your Command phase, select one friendly DISCIPLES OF BE’LAKOR unit excluding VEHICLE units within 9? Instead of always having one gameplan you stick to every game, you’ll have to adapt and actually play some 40K.

Holding his newly-acquired severed heads aloft, this iconic Herald of Khorne inspires lesser daemons to put their nose to the (skull)grindstone. Remove that model from the battlefield and set it back up anywhere on the battlefield that is more than 9″ from any enemy models.

The Stratagems in Index: Chaos Daemons are a complete success, adding both flavor and power to our daemonic arsenals. No, you aren’t losing your head – Khorne Day continues with a jaunt into the howling vortex of daemonic slaughter that is the upcoming Codex: Chaos Daemons . If a CHARACTER with the DAEMON Faction keyword is your Warlord, it can generate a Warlord Trait from one of the following tables instead of the one in the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook. They have been replaced with invulnerable saves again, which makes sense given 10th Edition’s overall reduction in “ignores invulnerable save” units and weapons.

The closest enemy unit that is within 18″ of the psyker and visible to it suffers a mortal wound for each point that the total exceeds their highest Leadership characteristic. Each time you make a wound roll of 6+ for a NURGLE DAEMON unit within 6″ of any friendly model with the Locus of Virulence, that attack inflicts 1 additional damage.
