Oh hi guys I'm back sort of
instead of doing stuff like talking about the NG update I'm going to tell you all about the new Chaos Codex
there is no separate page for wargear
All HQ choices get a 5+ inv save
Chaos Lord and Dæmon prince are seperate entries Lord can have wargear and dæmon prince has some higher stats
Chaos sorcerers get a force weapon
new psychic powers including a chaos version of the veil of time
wind of chaos is sort of same
a dæmon weapon gives +d6 attacks plus either +1S for undivided or + another D6 attacks for khorne instand death for slaanesh wounds on 4+ for nurge and a 24" S4 ap3 assault d6 gun for tzeentch
If you roll a 1 to determine attacks the lord takes a would with no armor saves.
Chaos chosen and termonators are seperate entries.
Chosen can infiltrate and 1 can have a heawy or special weapon and 4 can have a special weapon or power fist, power weapon or lightning claw(s)
basic ones have a bolter AND bolt pistol and CC weapon
Terminatos cost 30 with a power weapon
+ 10 points for the other termonator cc wepons
still only get reaper and Heavy flamer
need to be at 10 to get second ranged heavy weapon
possesed get one random gift instead of you being able to buy it
dreadnoughts are an elites choice and pretty much the same except if you roll fire frenzy the dreadnought will shoot at the closest unit of either side
normal chaos marines cost 15 points and get krak and frag grenades bolter, AND bolt pistol and cc weapon
unit needs to be 10 or more strong to get a heavy weapon
marks of chaos work differently now
for normal marines instead of paying the points cost for a mark you buy a chaos icon which gives the mark to the squad
the bonuses are
chaos undivided in now called chaos glory (worst name ever) and does the same thing
khorne gives +1 attack
nurgle gives +1 toughness
slaanesh gives +1 iniative
tzeentch gives +1 inv save or if the model doesn't have one it gets a 5+inv savethere
Chaos marines can no longer buy special skills
also there are special marked units which are a troops choice
they get the normal bonus for their mark, the fearless special rule plus:
Khorne berzerkers get WS5 and furious charge
thousand suns get a 4+ inv ap 3 bolters, slaow and porposefull (which you anly roll one dice for if there is no tzeentch champion(who is a psyker) or another model with the mark of tzeentch leading them
nurgle plague marines get feel no pain and blight grenades whch are now the same as tau sonic grenades they do NOT get true grit
Noise marines get access to the sonic weaponry
both the doom siren and blast master get higher AP but no other changes
these marines cost between 20 and 25 points each
bikers can only get the +1 attack with the mark of khorne
can get mark of nurgle for toughness 4(6)
rapotrs cost 20 pts each and lose the hit and run rules
chaos spawn cost 40 pts each and have d6 S5 attacks and T5
they do not take up a FO choice but are deployed with fast attack
they are 1-3 models per unit and you can have as many units as you want
havocs are the same but cannot have tank busters :(
obliterators are a heavy support choice have S and T of 4 and a 3+ armor save
can deep strike and choose plasma cannons as their weapon
chaos vehicles cannot have chaos mutation and the god specific upgrades
dæmonic possesion reduces bs by 1 instead of denying the transport ability
hovoc launchers are S5 but only one shot (though they are twin-linked)
all vehicles get smoke launchers and searchlights
predators cost more
chaos marines can now have vindicators
land raiders cost 20pts less and lose the machine spirit substitute
defilers have fleet of foot WS, BS, and I of 3 Dread CC weapons can exchange side guns (not battlecanon) with extra arms for +1 attack each (basically they can have up to 5 attacks)
Dæmons do not take up FO choices
but there is only one basic greater dæmon and one dæmonic pack
(basically axing the god specific dæmons)
greater dæmons are 0-1 get a 4+inv WS 8 A5 T6 4 wounds
they cost 100pts
dæmon packs are basically 13 pt marines with two attacks no shooting or armor but with an 5+ inv save also you can have as many packs as you want regardless of the FO chart
