With all of the Space Marines and Tyranids swarming about with fancy new datacards, the forces of Chaos are seething. Luckily, their time has come, and all six Chaos factions are available to download today.
Each Index contains that faction’s army rule and one full Detachment, so you can get playing straight away.
The Chaos Space Marines beseech the gods for aid through Dark Pacts, bartering their very souls for the edge they need over their loyalist nemeses.
Chaos Daemons run rampant through realspace, casting the battlefield into the Shadow of Chaos as they lay their foul influence upon objectives. This pack of Index cards also includes rules for adding daemons to your other Chaos armies, based on the size of the battle being fought.
The sons of Mortarion sap the toughness of nearby enemies by spreading Nurgle’s Gift, marching in an unstoppable wave and leaving infected objectives firmly under their control.
The Thousand Sons are the masters of psychic warfare – this Cabal of Sorcerers uses unholy rituals to warp the fabric of reality to their advantage.
Angron’s World Eaters are the bloodthirsty, maniacal warriors you know and love, joining the new edition with myriad Blessings of Khorne.
Chaos Knights are fear incarnate, Harbingers of Dread who impose an aura of sheer terror wherever they tread. Unlike their Imperial counterparts,* they couldn’t care less for the tenets of honour, instead taking all the glory and slaughter for themselves – and themselves alone.
Tomorrow brings the rest of the Imperium, with the Xenos factions and the first Munitorum Field Manual (which contains all the points) of the new edition arriving later in the week.
* Although the physical Chaos Knights and Imperial Knights datacards will be sold together as Index: Knight Households, we’ve split the downloads up for ease of reference.
