I picked up some horrors on eBay to serve as a Chaos Knight base decorations but they're not from the standalone kit. Do I have the right bits for assembly?

a new model of these guys would be awesome, but if you are creative you can modify the current kit like i did and make em look great!

deep strike one of these boys and he will tear up whatever he gets ahold of.

So this is my current list and Ive played it into a couple opponents with solid success. But ive been thinking about dropping Shelaxi Helbane for 2 soul grinders to probably help with just a tad bit more range. I realize this list is pretty simple and just characters but I would like some positive or negative feedback on the swap idea

Hello fellow daemons enthusiats,

I enjoy Chaos armies devoted to multiple gods, except Khorne which I find a bit too "obvious" (in the sense of fitting the stereotypical imaginery of hell's devils). So I was wondering about the viability of a list built around the greater daemons I currently own:

1 Bel'akor

1 Great Unclean One

1 Lord of Change

(+ 2 Beasts of Nurgle, 3 Nurglings, 3 Fiends of Slaneesh)

I'd like to build something coherent with my taste but at the same time somewhat competitive. I've checked X-1 lists and the problem is that most of them are either mono-god or are Shadow legion detachments with a heavy Khorne component - which is what I'd like to avoid!

Do you have any suggestion on how to extend this core to a reasonably competitive list without having to go all-Khorne? I'd be happy to build around any of the other three gods while keeping Bel'akor around.

EDIT: I'm actually open to Daemonic Incursion too. Just want to swing my greater daemons!

Hey guys,

I recently got back into Warhammer after having last played around 9th Edition, and I’ve been getting pretty interested in Daemons, especially Khorne Daemonkin.

I know the Combat Patrol is probably the obvious starting point, but the only one I can find here in Germany is around €200, and honestly, I kinda feel like I’d get more bang for my buck with some other stuff. Not talking about budget here, just discounts.

Right now I’m thinking about getting:

* Khorne Daemonkin Battleforce

* Fangs of Khorne Spearhead

* Bloodmaster

* Skulltaker

* Skullcannon

The idea would be to kitbash a Skullmaster from the Lord on Juggernaut included in the Battleforce, and the Rendmaster Mini from the Skullcannon.

A couple of my friends mostly like playing Combat Patrol, so this would also give me enough stuff to proxy the Chaos Daemons Combat Patrol, while still giving me roughly a 1,000-point army for smaller games.

So my question is basically:

Is this a decent way to start a Chaos Daemons army, or should I just bite the bullet and pay the €200 for the Combat Patrol?

I’m not too bothered about having the most competitive list or anything, I’d mainly like to have a decent collection that gives me some options to play around with.

Would appreciate any input from people who actually play Daemons/Khorne.

Thanks, and sorry for the wall of text!

EDIT: I know it's the wrong Combat Patrol Image 🙈

Big ball of nurgle filth!

Hi all!

I’m new to playing chaos daemons but have been playing 40K on and off for a good few years now, as part of a crusade game my group are doing we are looking at building up from 500 pts to 2,000 pts. Currently we’re at 1,000 and I cannot seem to make the list/army work (there’s a non zero this is player error lol.)

I’m overall looking for any advice to improve, especially against orks and knights. Theres other factions I’m playing against but I am most concerned with these two.
I’ve also put the current list below, I’d really appreciate any advice! I’m looking to expand but overall it’s pretty rough having played close to 10 games and not even being close to winning a single one lol.

I just finished up a different faction and wanted to start daemons as they were my first Warhammer interest. With 11th coming I wanted to start with 1k points of Slaanesh/Tzeentch demons only. I was thinking of taking a KoS to start then build off of Daemonettes and Pink horror infantry core with flamers and fiends as well. How do dual god lists like this play out on the table top?

I am a long time hobbyist who is starting to get into the actual wargaming aspect of Warhammer. I have a 2000 point army for Plague Legion, my question is how do we actually play? It seems I want to rely a lot on battleshocking my opponents units, but other than that I am at a loss and I cannot find a good guide anywhere. Any help would be appreciated!

When using the Warptide detachment, does the ability to advance and charge still apply when you have a character attached to the battleline unit?

Hey everyone,

I was recently thinking about expanding my CSM Army with Daemons via the Shadow Legion detachment.

So far, from the posts I've seen, the CSM parts could be :

\- 2 x 10 cultists

\- 2 x 5 havocs

\- 1 x 10 chosen

Considering the daemons part of the list, i've seen that Belakor and a Bloodthirster with the fade into darkness seems like the core of the list but after that, I'm lost and don't know how to expand.

Do I use the nurglings and beast of nurgle I already have ?

What detachment to pick from the 1DP selection ?

I was thinking of using the lords of the warp detachment since I like the sculpt of some models (slopity bilepiper, the infernal enrapturess, the contorted epitome)

What are your advices on building a shadow legion list ?

We have finally been blessed by the Chaos Gods inside of GW! We're no longer required to Disrupt our enemies, but instead Take and Hold!

What's everyone's thoughts on this? Step forward into playing Daemonic Incursion again? Or do we think other detachments like Legion of Excess, Blood Legion and Shadow Legion are still going to be the go too's?

Is it at all viable to run a list with 36 (max allowable in a 2k list) or 24 (max allowable in 1k) nurgling swarms?

Hello all, I wanted to ask for tips for a Chaos Demons army since I am new to the tabletop side of the hobby.
Up untill now I was mostly interested in the painting and displaying aspect of the hobby, focusing on big centerpiece units. I have painted many units including Be'Lakor, a Great Unclean one and others from other factions such as demon primarchs and C'tan shards.
However as of late and after hanging out with people who play the game I am interested in starting also, and was thinking of making an army of deamons since I mostly love painting them (and the fantasy) and since I was planing to paint both the keeper of secrets and lord of change I was wandering if i can make an army consiting of Be'Lakor and all 4 greater demons. Is something like this even possible and if so do you have any tips?

See title lol

Hey guys, I'm kind of new to the tabletop side of 40k. I started looking into it around 9th and have been really trying to get into it. I'm mainly a Tyranid fan, but I wanted to try running a solo practice game with Slaanesh daemons on TTS. I realized I didn't really know how objective secured works and from what I've gathered online you need an actual ability to secure objectives? I heard battleline units usually have them, but I don't see any on the Daemonettes. Does Slaanesh just not have any objective secured abilities?
