Faction Thread 5: Chaos

[uanime5]

Regarding different religions it is possible to have up to 7 religions in M2TW (including heretic). I'm unsure if the settlement details scroll has the space to display more religions.

That's from warmaster, not warhammer.

[Bwian]

Those miniatures are indeed from Warmaster ... but the creatures are also listed in the Chaos Daemon armybook and the Chaos creatures are things I would like to be able to add if at all possible. It really depends how much flexibility I can get out of a skeleton. If we would need a unique skeleton and animation set for each, then that might preclude them for a first release.

Some of the more 'human' shaped creatures will be included from the outset.

Most Deamons are a basic humanoid shape, Bloodletters, Plaguebearers, Deamonettes, all these have 2 arms and 2 legs.

Other deamons that could be used, Flamers of Tzeench and Chaos Horrors they have a basic humanoid frame.

Dragon Ogres would be amazing to use but would be difficult to create i think, can you murge a horse and its rider into 1 model?

And the Chaos undivided is when the 4 Factions of chaos unite to support a "lord of end times" who is a great champion of no one faction.

Other than the time of "the lord of end times" all factions despise one and other and the only faction that forms any sort of allience is the Dark Elves and Slaanesh.
The Chaos Dwarves were allied to Chaos but were discontinued due to lack of interest from gamers.

Skaven will always work with Nurgle, Slaanesh has a following in DE, and Chaos Dwarfs still exist in the fluff (and therefore potentially in mods, although this one is quite sensibly not putting them as one off thier first factions).

Bwian did it for centurs in RTW...

P.S. Screamers of Tzenteech I've done like riderless horses for RTW (although again you can sometimes get a captain sitting on one, no idea how to get round that)

[tito]

it will be a god idea if one chaos faction kill the other ,it's would have some special units and building;like big deamons or something like this.

That's from warmaster, not warhammer.

"Warmaster" is "Warhammer". Don't confuse "Warhammer tabletop" with "Warhammer" in general. "Warhammer" is a universe, and not a game.

[King of Finland]

I don't have chaos armybook so I don't know what the followers of different chaos gods think about each other, but could they start as allies?

Internal Chaos relations aren't particularly amiable. Khorne and Slaanesh followers hate each other more than they hate anything else in the entire WH universe. Tzeentch and Nurgle followers aren't as bad but hate each other to.

The various gods are ideologically four extreme opposites and have no reason to cooperate about anything. Khornates aren't capable to cooperating with anybody. Nurgle followers don't care. Slaaneshis and Tzeenchians might.

[Jubal_Barca]

Yeah, only time they unite is for a horde of Chaos Undivided (think Archaon and his entire force and youu get the idea of what I'm talkn' about).

couldn't this be made so that the Chaos religeon was the same as the heretic religeon? just a thought sorry if this has been said elsewhere

[Pumpavius]

Well chaos is about to be released for the 7th edition of WFB, and I don't know if all the units for this army are already determined but this is for example one of the new heroes that will be released:



I hope you're considering the new units that came with this 7th edition, some of them, like this one, are just great!.

Good luck guys!

[Dreq-Kai]

Wow... that things looks intense... When are the Chaos due for 7th edition update?
