Alright, fellow Chaos devotees, hold onto your bolters because we’re diving headfirst into the chaos-fueled frenzy of the new Chaos Lords and their mighty battleforces hitting the 41st Millennium next week! And let me tell you, one of these lords is grabbing all the attention, especially for us bloodthirsty enthusiasts.
So picture this: you’ve got this Chaos Lord with a Jump Pack, looking all majestic and imposing strapped to what’s essentially a rocket – talk about making an entrance! And his crew? Well, they’re no pushovers either. With a squad of vicious Raptors at his side and hordes of mortal Cultists backing him up, you know you’re in for some serious mayhem.
But how do we take this formidable warband and turn it into a full-on Chaos Space Marine invasion force? Let’s break it down. First off, we’ve got our Chaos Lord leading the charge with his Raptors in tow, while our trusty Daemon Prince stomps forward with his own entourage of Cultists. It’s a two-pronged assault – fast and deadly in the air, grounded and resilient on the battlefield.
Now, let’s talk tactics. We’ve gotta beef up that Daemon Prince with some optional wings, so he can provide aerial support to our tougher units. Plus, with their Flying Horror rule causing enemies within 12” to subtract 1 from their Battleshock test, they’re perfect for causing chaos (pun intended) among our foes.
And those Raptors? Don’t just settle for the basic kit – turn them into Warp Talons for some close combat expertise with extra AP. Trust me, a few units of these bad boys will give any armored enemy a run for their money.
But what’s a Chaos invasion without some daemonic flying machines? Enter the Heldrake – the epitome of air superiority, with a knack for hunting down rival aircraft and causing havoc from above.
Now, let’s not forget about our ground troops. Those Accursed Cultists may look like your run-of-the-mill rabble, but bulk them up to a hearty 16 models and watch them sprint across the battlefield with their new Scouts 6” and Howling Horde rules. And hey, who doesn’t love some revolting monstrosities to round out their army?
And if you’re looking to add some firepower to the mix, Traitor Guardsmen Squads are your go-to objective campers with their impressive arsenal. Plus, with the Twisted Defence Force ability granting them the Benefit of Cover, they’ll weather the storm while your other units dive headfirst into the fray.
But hey, the beauty of Codex: Chaos Space Marines is its versatility. Whether you’re packing Chaos Rhinos full of Legionaries, teleporting Chaos Terminators straight into battle, or unleashing the shockingly durable Venomcrawlers, the options are endless.
And if you’re feeling extra spicy, why not combine your Dread Talons battleforce with their sister set, the Veterans of the Long War? With both Chaos Lords leading the charge, supported by their entourages, you’ll have everything you need for an unstoppable force of chaos.
So gear up, my fellow heretics, because the 41st Millennium is about to feel the full wrath of our Chaos invasion – and it’s going to be glorious!
