===Monsters=== *'''Chaos Spawn of Slaanesh''': Has the Soporific Musk ability like fiends, though it was bugged and didn't work until patch 1.2. They function as cheaper but slightly worse fiends basically, not much reason to use them once you can afford fiends instead, at least in campaign. they do have high non ap weapon strength so they might be slightly better at chaff killing but that's not something Slaanesh needs help in. *'''Chaos Warshrine of Slaanesh (DLC)''': A big, slow support monster with a mortis engine like AOE HP drain effect. Ironically less useful for Slaanesh's army than warriors of chaos. This warshrine is built to win grinding battles of attrition and does not work well with the mobile shock tactics that the rest of Slaanesh's roster excel in. If however you decide to skip the flank playstyle and go for a Marauder/Chaos Warrior/Chosen death blob this thing is a god send. - it works just fine with Slaanesh mauraders as a front line of chaff or chaos warriors. in campaign you may wish to just use this as a mount for sorcerers or cultists instead of bringing by itself. *'''Soul Grinder of Slaanesh''': A purely melee version of the Soul Grinder with 75 speed, anti-large, and lots of armour piercing damage. May be preferable for most uses to the keeper of secrets because they have actually good armor and fill a similar role. it is easily the toughest endgame unit you have access too. In multiplayer, these guys are near mandatory in certain matchups since they're your best answer to big, single entity beatsticks. In campaign, you have little reason to use them after finishing the research that gives all Keepers of Secrets 2 free casts of every lore of Slaanesh spell. *'''Keeper of Secrets:''' Your Greater Daemon unit is fast, has lots of weapon strength and armor piercing, as well as Blissful Rapture, Devastating Flanker, and Strider. Can cast two bound spells from the Lore of Slaanesh: Lash of Slaanesh and Acquiescence. They're powerful melee killers but they need to flank and cycle charge for best affect due to their low durability. Take advantage of their high mass and slippery animations to run in and out of the fight. Consider pairing them with N'Kari or an Exalted Keeper to form high-damage goon squads. Soul Grinders are Tankier and might be better for prolonged brawls. Campaign tech tree can give them the whole Lore of Slaanesh as bound spells. Good targets for buffs to weapon damage like Mind Razor or the Slaanesh rampage buff. With the abillity to get up to 2 casts of every lore of Slaanesh spell free as bound spells from campaign techs these guys are very deadly and versatile, they lack a soul grinders armor but free magic makes them much deadlier. In campaign put your lord with as many hero's as you feel the need for and a Doomstack of just these and you'll have no trouble. For an example of how to abuse the magic to the fullest, use 17-19 of these, paralyze the entire enemy army with Phantasmagoria on each unit, drop Pavane and Slicing shards on every enemy unity then flank them before Debuffing them with Acquiescence and finally rear-charging in with Hysterical frenzy and I guess you can lash them too if anything is left. **'''The Marquis of Masochism (RoR)''': The Marquis swaps out the usual KoS spells for Phantasmagoria and The Enfeebling Foe, which is good in multiplayer but somewhat annoying in campaign since he won't benefit from increased Slaanesh spells from research. It also gets a special ability that heals it when near units with low leadership, which increases in effect as more nearby units lose their leadership. Phantasmagoria really shines in combo with this ability, as it both nets enemies in place and lowers their leadership in a wide radius. Drop it on the Marquis' head and watch his health shoot up while he slaughters anything nearby. Also he is a literal reference to Hellraiser. "I have such sights to show you!" You aren't hiding anything CA!
