The transported Herald grants the Altar their Aura abilities, and also allows the Ritual Slaughter action.

Khorne armies can bring the Skull Altar, a 50 point T8 Fortification with a 4+ unmodifiable save that messes with Psychic tests within 18″ and has the option to transport a single KHORNE INFANTRY HERALD model (Skulltaker or Bloodmaster).

There are a lot of synergistic effects that could be fun, assuming you can afford them.Ĭuriously only two Chaos gods have a means of generating WSP from sources other than the 8 dice rolled at the beginning of the round that would be Team Christmas. Mesmerising Dance is a 4 WSP Slaanesh effect which guarantees that every Slaanesh unit can fight first.įor the most part the other effects are pretty simple bonuses, like improving certain tests or characteristics or inflicting mortal wounds in other ways. Overwhelming Rage is a 4 WSP Khorne effect that’s neat because it forces a 50% chance that a given unit won’t be able to Fall Back (4+ on a D6). This effect is identical to Wave of Sickness in terms of effect and cost, which really makes that Christmas-themed army I was debating even more amusing. On average this inflicts 0.33 wounds per unit, which seems like a waste of WSP unless you know you won’t have another reason to use them. A D6 is rolled for every enemy unit within 24″ of any Khorne daemon units, and on a 6 that unit suffers 1d3 mortal wounds. This increases the chance of a Perils from 5.5% to 16.7%, or one in 6.īurning Terror is a 2 WSP Khorne effect that happens at the start of your Shooting phase.

Used at the start of the opponent’s Psychic phase, every Daemon unit gains a 12″ aura that causes Perils of the Warp to occur on any Psychic test that results in a double instead of a double 1 or 6. Insidious Whispers is an Undivided effect that costs 2 WSP and is particularly brutal against Psykers. Note that the chance of getting 5 or more WSP is 36.3%, so without help a Daemon player will be lucky to invoke this effect more than once per game.

In the case of units in which every model has a Wounds characteristic of 1, 1d3 models are returned instead. At the start of the Morale phase (it does not specify yours or your opponent’s) you allow one model from each unit to gain 1d3 wounds. For the most part these effects are pretty straightforward, although there are a few that are worth noting.ĭark Invigoration is an Undivided effect that is the most expensive effect at 5 WSP and also potentially the most powerful. Players who have a permitted detachment dedicated to a particular Chaos god gain access to three additional effects which only apply to units dedicated to that god. Every army gains access to the Undivided effects, which cost between 2 and 5 WSP and provide a multitude of effects.

Players have several options when it comes to how to spend the accrued WSP. On average this this means you’ll get 4 points per round. Unless the WSP is retained from an effect (every Chaos god has their own way of retaining 2) then they are lost at the end of the round. You roll 8 dice and every 4+ gives you a Warp Storm point (WSP) to spend during that round. If every unit of the army has the proper keyword (or is an Agent of Chaos or Unaligned) then you can make a Warp Storm roll at the beginning of every turn. That mechanic is called Warp Storm effects and it represents the swirling maelstrom of raw Chaos that accompanies the denizens of the Warp as they step upon the material plane. While I don’t have an answer for my own personal conundrum, what I do have an answer for is the new core mechanic discussed in the latest release of Codex: Chaos Daemons. Seriously, they look so much fun to paint too! Credit: RichyP I wish I had a good answer for why I don’t have legions of Bloodletters and Nurglings rushing forth on a field or pure white snow in some kind of abominable Christmas special.

Plus it’s not like Chaos Daemons are going anywhere, as the manifestations of the Ruinous Powers are a core element of the Games Workshop product line.

And they work in multiple games, meaning that you double your return on investment. They’re incredibly flexible, opening up opportunities to incorporate Traitor Legions and other cool stuff. They look amazing, especially the newest models. This week’s Hammer of Math feels the warp overtaking us and embraces the chaos that is the new Warp Storm Point for Chaos Daemons.Įvery now and then I wonder why I don’t have a Chaos Daemons army.
