==Why Play Blades of Khorne?== Because you're tired of all this frilly magic nonsense running around the table. A purple sun? REALLY?! You also never saw a problem you didn't think could be solved by swinging an axe or sword at it. The hordes of Khorne are great at shutting down magically inclined opponents while lopping off their heads. This army isn't braindead, however, and requires intelligent use of stacking auras, prayers, command abilities, and artifacts to actually be effective. With the 2.0 point increases across the board, it's now more important than ever to hone in on what makes Blades of Khorne so great. '''PROS''' *Khorne cares not from where the blood flows. Your own units dying helps you in the long run. *Your prayers cannot be unbound. *Between Blood Points, Command Abilities, prayers, Judgements, relics, battalions and whatnot, Khorne's armies are surprisingly flexible and tactical now. They're still obsessed with close combat, of course, but can adapt to many opponents quite well. *Your army is tied with the Greenskins for the most fun thing that you can say while playing any kind of ''Warhammer'': BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE! '''CONS''' *Only one real artillery unit in the Skull Cannon, which is worthless *Too much of a good thing can be a bad thing, and is here. You'll want every kind of hero in your army but won't have the space for them. *It's possible to be banned from a store for saying "BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE!" too much. '''What's changed in 2.0?''' *Heroes you previously wouldn't have taken have gotten significantly better. The 3 base command abilities can be used by all of your heroes, without them being your general. Your Exalted Deathbringers and Aspiring Deathbringers are a decent choice now! *Summoning no longer requires points from your army spent. Kill stuff, get Blood Tithe, summon more. *Arcane Shield was significantly nerfed...but Bronzed Flesh is still +1 to save rolls <s>and can be used several times in a phase</s> Not anymore, prayer from the Blood Blessing table can only be chanted once each turn. *Since GHB2017, you no longer need to worry about Bloodbound and Daemon allegiances. While your general still can affect what additional battlelines you can take, all you need is the Khorne tag!
