Editing Black Crusade (RPG) (section)

===Books of ye Gods!===
There is an ongoing series of books, each one is dedicated to each god, but gives plenty of general rules and fluff to expand on the vanilla game. Each one includes an expanded armory, more rituals, more enemies, daemons, daemon engines, information on worlds and places in the Screaming Vortex, a pre-written adventure, and introduces two archetypes for Marines and two for humans, all themed around the respective god. The books are:
*'''The Tome of Fate:''' The book on [[Tzeentch]], and gives all kinds of info on him, his servants, and playing Tzeentchian heretic archetypes. Introduces the rapetastic [[Thousand Sons]] Sorcerer, as well as the [[Alpha Legion]]naire; and two human archetypes that you wouldn't have heard of unless you have the core book: the Q'Sal Magister Immaterial and the Idolitrex Magos of Forge Polix. Other unique features include expanded psychic powers, rules for investigations, and more rules for Necrons.
*'''The Tome of Blood:''' The tome of [[Khorne]], because who else would it go to? New features include turning weapons into Legacy Weapons ([[Awesome|think of what sets apart a chainaxe from Gorechild]] [[Rape|and can be made into daemon weapons]]); mounted riding rules, which of course edge into rudimentary vehicle rules; advanced horde rules and rules for large-scale battles. Not too much unique stuff, but then everything is about the ways to wage and [[rage]] war in Khorne's name. Also introduces the overtly broken [[Khorne Berzerker]] class, the [[Night Lords]] marine, the Frost Father who is a Khornate tribal warrior, and the Chem Hunter, a drug addict who was too hardcore to be thrown in with that pussified Slaanesh book. Oh, and ever wanted to summon a greater daemon? This is your tome! Also, it's the first book to mention [[Doomrider]] in ages.
*'''The Tome of Excess:''' [[Slaanesh]]'s tome. Gives us the [[Emperor's Children]] [[Noise Marine]] and a [[Word Bearers]] [[Dark Apostle]], also a Rogue Trader-like Pirate Prince and the surgeon/face Flesh Shaper. Also noted that there is no Unaligned archetype for humans, which is <s>[[Rage|UTTER BULLSHIT]]</s> <s>[[Awesome|frickin' sweet!]]</s> [[skub|something players should judge for themselves]]. New rules include extended rules for minions, verbal combat, seducing NPCs and ''fellow heretics'', and has all kinds of small rites to perform to appease specific gods. The Khornate rites are the most amazing things ever, like rip the spine and skull of a still living enemy out intact and scream your allegiance to the blood god to grant you a little bit of corruption and infamy. The expanded armory includes drugs and rock'n'roll, but nothing explicitly about sex. Probably because Slaanesh is a registered sex offender and has to tread carefully, or something.
*'''Tome of Decay:''' The long-awaited [[splatbook]] for [[Nurgle]], although it seems to combine both Nurglite topics and content that might have been included in the unaligned/Undivided book. Specifically, it has three new Marine Archetypes ([[Plague Marine]]s, [[Warpsmith]]s. and Veterans of the Long War, which better fits the [[Chaos Chosen|Chosen]] than the Chosen does), three human Archetypes (Sorcerer-Kings of the Writhing World, Death-Priests of Mire, and Plaguemeisters), rules for [[Possessed|possession]], building your own custom [[Daemon Engine]]s, some stuff for running your own Black Crusade, [[Daemon Prince|ascension to Daemonhood]], and, of course, the assorted new weapons, armour, enemies, and worlds that come with every book. A bit of a [[skub]] book because some felt it was a bit rushed when they finally got around to making it, and there could have been much more Nurgley stuff that was left out in favor of a lot of things that could have been more neatly filed under Chaos Undivided. Officially retconned that [[Daemon Prince]]s had to be Marked by a specific god and so you couldn't ascend unless you chose one, which furthered the skub.

There had also used to be some rumours of a fifth book for Chaos Undivided, presumably covering unaligned archetypes (i.e. Black Legion and Red Corsairs) and providing the "higher-level" content, but, as we've said above, it seems to have been combined into the Tome of Decay.
