Product Information

Our invulns versus shooting have largely become worse. Our invulns versus melee have largely become better. With variable Daemon Saves being removed in favor of one flat invuln save per unit, our defensive profiles have been simplified. The good news is that with “ignores invuln” effects being almost entirely removed from the game, our invuln saves will actually feel like invuln saves again. Note that Daemons aren’t hypocrites about this: Our three big sources of “ignore invulns” damage ourselves, Skarbrand, Be’lakor, and Skulltaker, have all lost their “ignore invulns” rules. Great Unclean One • Poxbringer • Spoilpox Scrivener • Sloppity Bilepiper • Battle Fly • Beast of Nurgle • Nurgling • Plaguebearer • Rot Fly • Bloat-Fly • Clawbril • Hooktor • Molluscoid • Blight Drone • Plague Hulk • Plague Drone • Plague Toad • Pox Rider • Foetid Bloat-Drone • Feculent Gnarlmaw • Glitchling • Plague Fly The Feculent Gnarlmaw is the only option really worth discussing here; those went up 10 points and per the Daemons FAQ now give Light cover, plus an extra +1 to save rolls.

Well, sure, I guess I could summon other kinds of daemons… I can think of someone who’s disapprove though.I already have 5 Blue horrors from the chariot kit and will be getting 2 boxes of Blue, which give my 25 Blues Heldrake • Stormbird • Thunderhawk • Chaos Storm Eagle • Chaos Fire Raptor • Hell Blade • Hell Talon • Harbinger • Chaos Dreadclaw • Kharybdis Assault Claw • Fire Lord • Doom Wing So what do you think? Are you happy to see this fluffy mechanic returned to the tabletop? And are Tzeentch’s new Horrors truly worthy of the name now? Blazing Squealers - These Exalted Pink Horrors are living conduits to the realm of Tzeentch, channelling volatile warpfire directly from his dark abode, the Realm of the Sorcerer. [4] With all of that out of the way, let’s dive into the datasheets. To make this section easier to follow, we’ll break down the units by their respective Gods. Unmarked Units

Burning Chariots return almost unchanged, losing a bit of movement in exchange for gaining T8. Their special rule turns off the benefits of cover for an enemy unit that they hit until the end of the phase. This is an odd choice, given that Flamers, Exalted Flamers, and Burning Chariots already ignore cover. With six cults to choose from, each with their own ability, command ability, command trait and artefact of power, you’ll be able to add more variety to your Tzeentch armies than ever before. Big Warscroll Changes Chaos Lord • Exalted Champion • Chaos Champion • Aspiring Champion • Sorcerer Lord • Daemon Prince • Daemon Prince of Nurgle • Daemon Prince of Tzeentch • Death Guard Lord The Shadow Of Chaos is a thematic army rule, based around the idea of Daemons reshaping realspace into a terrifying mirror image of the Warp. 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. The Shadow Of Chaos can be divided into 3 areas of the battlefield:Use a Herald of Tzeentch or other suitable sorcerous companion to cast Sacrifice, choosing one of the Horrors as the victim. The Bloodthirster and Great Unclean one are still overpriced and the Great Unclean one suffers from the new terrain rules, which make it visible through obscuring terrain. The rest of the HQs made out OK with 5- and 10-point adjustments with the exception of the Winged Daemon Prince of Chaos (+30), who is the big loser here as a result of the inexplicable need to make every Daemon Prince cost the same amount of points despite having different statlines, rules, and powers. The Winged Daemon Prince was already a rare sight in Chaos Daemons and so that’s not likely to change now. HQ: Death Guard Daemon Prince of Nurgle [9 PL, 195pts]: 1. Miasma of Pestilence, Hellforged sword, Wings FA: Chaos Spawn [6 PL, 69pts, -1CP]: Chaos Spawn, Chaos Spawn, Chaos Spawn, Contaminated Monstrosity (-1 CP) The Guild of Summoners are one of the most unusual sub-factions in the book. These crazed cultists can’t actually summon anything other than Lords of Change – but their first only costs a mere 9 Fate Points. In practice, this means that only 9 spells need to be cast, anywhere on the table, for you to get a massive boost in battle – an incredible counter to magic-heavy forces.

LoW: Magnus the Red (465), Warlord, Powers: Warptime, Doombolt, Weaver of Fates, Tzeentch’s Firestorm Now it’s time to add additional details and accents to enhance the overall look of the miniatures. Use smaller brushes to paint details like the eyes, teeth, and claws. You can use colors like Yriel Yellow for the eyes and Rakarth Flesh for the teeth. Take your time and be patient while painting these intricate parts. So I have 60-odd Horrors, and intend to add another 20 or so (mostly Brimstones), and that seems reasonable and manageable. Oh don’t get me wrong, I know what I said earlier and I certainly don’t mean to start them all on the table all at once. Indeed, I’ve determined that I don’t intend to likely ever begin with more than 2-3 units of Horrors in my armies anymore. In addition, I’ll likely stop bringing the Portalglyph (once a staple) in my Tzeentch Daemon armies altogether, and as I said earlier, I’ll probably rarely, intentionally, summon more Pink Horrors.To describe a Daemonic Horror is all but impossible, for they are pure Chaos unbound, given capering and energetic form by the will of Tzeentch. The Lesser Daemons called Horrors are often used as Daemonic slaves by the Greater Daemons called Lords of Change. Despite my opinion and the thoughts I’ve expressed here, I’ve no doubt that there will still be some who view the Horrors’ new Split special rule as just too powerful. In this case, what should tournament organizers do to ‘fix’ Tzeentch Horrors? Personally, I say nothing. But, if Organizers feel they must, I think they should adhere to the maxim that Less is More. In particular, after some thinking of my own, I’d recommend one of the following (but not more than one): But otherwise, I think you are right about the ratios. If only taking 1-2 unit of Pinks, do the correct 1:2 ratio of Pink:Blue and 1:1 ratio of Blue:Brim The Chaos Daemons faction hasn’t changed all that much from our review of Engine War, which significantly improved Greater Daemons and a number of units. The most notable changes however are the changes to the army construction and the changes to missions that have shifted a number of priorities, making the game even at a casual level about accomplishing Primary and Secondary Objectives. So let’s dig into each of those individually and see what we can divine about the army. Army Construction

Zzak'tar - Iridescent Horror. He and his Coven of Pink Horrors are a part of the Brazen Host, though ever fearful of the wrath of its commander - Greater Daemon Gore Lord. [7] Use an unnecessary amount of Warp Charge dice when trying to invoke a psychic power to try and suffer a Perils of the Warp result (hoping to take some casualties), assuming I have the dice to spare in a given turn. In particular, during those rare occasions when I have dice left over, but no suitable targets or things to do with my psychic powers that matter, invoking them anyway hoping for that Perils of the Warp. This tactic becomes all the more insidious once you realize that a result of 8 on the new Tzeentchian Warp Storm table (also found in Wrath of Magnus) reduces all Warp Charge costs to invoke psychic powers by 1, but automatically results in a Perils of the Warp if you fail. Mu Hoo Ha Ha Ha… Opponent’s Deployment Zone: If you control at least half of the objective markers in your opponent’s deployment zone, then his/her deployment zone is considered within the Shadow Of Chaos.Charge rolls have been buffed across the board. There are a ton of charge rerolls or +1” to charge modifiers in this codex. You’ll have lots of very reliable 6” or 5” rerolling charges out of deepstrike. Finally there’s Warpcraft, which focuses on Pyskers. Although Daemons have cheap Psykers and the ability to take more thanks to Horrors, Psychic Actions can only be done by CHARACTERS, and because those are all in the HQ slot and powerful units, you’ll want them casting psychic powers and smiting rather than spending their psychic phases on actions. The big downside here is Abhor the Witch, which is going to be used against you in almost every game you come up against an army with no psykers, and will typically be combined with Assassinate/Bring It Down to make each Greater Daemon kill worth an insane 8 Victory Points, and that’s for killing a unit that can’t be protected by Look Out, Sir and was already part of your opponent’s game plan. It’s not quite reason enough to not take Greater Daemons, but it makes taking exactly three of them kind of awkward, meaning you may want to conisder going all in and bringing more (or other big things).
