Editing Warhammer 40,000/7th Edition Tactics/Khorne Daemonkin (section)

==Special Rules==
*'''Mark of Khorne''' - Rage and Counter-Attack. Which is an insult after having +1A.
*'''Daemon of Khorne''' - Daemon, Hatred ([[Slaanesh]]), Furious Charge.  Chariots also get HoW attacks at S7.  As a fun bonus, you're also now free from Daemonic Instability and Warp Storm and get Fearless instead.  WOOT!
*'''Blood for the Blood God!''' - Every unit that you or your enemy kills on the field (which can make your opponent a bit gun shy about finishing your units off) or when your character is killed or when an enemy character dies in a challenge gets converted into Blood Tithe points.  You can only stock 8 points at a time, but you can use them for cool stuff (Issue is that whatever you pick, you spend all your points on it, even if you have more points than needed):
**'''Infernal Contempt''' - 1 point.  Grants all units with BftBG Adamantium Will for a turn.  Can do well when stacked with the Collar but only really useful against psychic spam armies.
**'''Insatiable Bloodlust''' - 2 points.  Grants all units with BftBG Rage and Furious Charge for a turn, which can be very handy for assaults, despite having at least one of these default on all your models. Might wanna save it for the next one, because that one is great.
**'''Unstoppable Ferocity''' - 3 points.  All units with BftBG get FNP for a turn.  This is sweetness.
**'''Apocalyptic Fury''' - 4 points.  All units with BftBG gain +1 Attack for a turn.  Great for when everything is annoyingly locked in ongoing assaults, but save your points for later if you can. All the options after this one summon daemons to the field, although if for some reason you don't have the models to represent those units, then the blood tithe points are wasted.
**'''Daemontide''' - 5 points.  8 Bloodletters/5 Flesh Hounds are summoned within 12" of a model with BftBG.  Fun note about this is that just like the Malefic summoning, you can get an Instrument, Banner, or Character upgrade for free if you have the model for it.  This makes Bloodletters more reliable in deep-striking.
**'''Harbingers of Blood and Skulls''' - 6 Points.  3 Bloodcrushers/A Skull Cannon is summoned within 12" of a model with BftBG.  This is pretty handy in bolstering some surprise losses.
**'''Dark Apotheosis''' - 7 Points.  Find a character without the Daemon of Khorne USR.  He must test Leadership.  If he fails, he's now a...[[Chaos Spawn|thing.]]  If he passes, congrats, he's now a Daemon Prince with Warp-Forged Armor and maybe wings, though he is "summoned" within 6" of his old position meaning potential scatter issues. Also, he keeps any Artefacts of Slaughter he had provided they are compatible and his WT. Either way he counts as being removed as a casualty (see below why this is important) Therefore it still confers a killpoint if it was an independent character, but thankfully, either result doesn't count as Slaying the Warlord if your Warlord was picked.
***The new May 2016 FAQ says that conjured or summoned FMCs must be declared as either in Swooping or Gliding mode when they arrive on the board. They still arrive via deep strike, so cannot charge that turn either way. But now the choice of wings or no wings is down to what you build the model as.
**'''Fury Unbound''' - 8 points. Find a character without the Daemon of Khorne USR.  He must test Leadership.  If he fails, he's gone (And now your enemy is awarded for Slay the Warlord if you used your Warlord).  If he passes, you now have a new Unfettered Fury Bloodthirster with the same WT, and if that guy was your warlord, the thirster's now your Warlord. Like Dark Apotheisis, your original model is still "removed as a casualty" and the new Bloodthirster is summoned to the table via deep strike so doesn't get into killing straight away. 
*'''Skulls for the Skull Throne!''' - Essentially Champions of Chaos, you must issue/accept challenges.  Only now you're not under constant risk of being morphed into...well, those gribblies.

===Warlord Traits===

Usually armies always get Warlord Traits that are always mediocre with a couple that stand out above all the rest; Khorne Daemonkin does not suffer this and ALL of these traits are good for your <s>Daemon Prince</s>, Oh I mean Warlord.
#'''Icon of War''' - warlord and any unit with 12" with BftBG may reroll charge distances. 12" range which affects '''units''' is huge but could be highly wasted if you have Icons of Wrath.
#'''Disciple of Khorne''' - gain Zealot. Which essentially means only Hatred, since all your HQs were fearless anyway. Good but Butcher King is better. 
#*Hatred is applied only to a single model, while Zealot confers Hatred for the model's entire unit. So zealot is better than fearless and hatred if your warlord is attached to a unit. 
#'''Arch Slaughterer''' - add +1 to attacks stat. A good one, since you can just rack up the extra attacks.
#'''Favoured of Khorne''' - generate an ''additional'' Blood Tithe point whenever the warlord slays a character in a challenge. If you slay an Independent Character in a challenge, you'll get '''THREE''' Blood Tithe points! Jesus. Stack with the Blade of Endless Bloodshed for FOUR BLOOD TITHE POINTS! Skulltaker starts with this.
#'''Butcher King''' - gain preferred enemy (everything). Oh baby it's a triple! This trait is amazing. If you get this, just watch people cry as your Daemon Prince/Bloodthirster/Jacked-Up-Lord NEVER misses or fails to wound.
#'''Destined for Glory''' - when testing LD for Dark Apotheosis or Fury Unbound, they always pass the test. Useless on anything other than the Chaos Lord since models that already have the "Daemon" rule cannot be replaced, but that's what you have a Re-Roll for your Warlord Trait right?
