==New Armies== Since this was the time when Warhammer Fantasy was pretty awesome, the Storm of Chaos had a lot of new armies that built on existing armies, allowing a player to represent more unique forces born for the event. ''[[Archaon's Horde]]'': A variant of the [[Hordes of Chaos]] representing the humans directly under Archaon's command. It introduced the new units Flayerkin (now-forgotten mutant skirmishers and siege-breakers) and the Hellcannon (which has since become a mainstay for [[Warriors of Chaos]]). ''[[Daemonic Legions]]'': This was the era of [[Hordes of Chaos]], so whilst pure-Daemon armies could be done, they weren't very good. The Daemonic Legion, which may have given rise to the eventual Chaos Daemons armies for Fantasy and 40K, made them more viable, with some rule-tweaking and the addition of Daemonic Heralds, Mounted [[Daemonette]]s (this was the era where classic Steeds of Slaanesh were made a new kind of daemonic steed, unique to this unit, and the name Steed of Slaanesh was given to new snake-daemon beasts), skirmisher-packs of Flamers, Daemonic Cavalry and Daemonic Chariots. ''[[Middenlanders]]'': A variant of the [[The Empire (Warhammer Fantasy)|Empire]] army that focused on the [[Ulric]]-worshipping forces of Middenland. Complete with its own armory of magical items, disallowed Empire items, and new units; the White Wolf Knights' Grand Master, the Seneschals of the White Wolf, the Priests of Ulric, the Teutogen Guard, the Warriors of Ulric, the Wolf-Kin and the Hunting Hounds. ''[[Grimgor's 'Ardboyz]]'': A variant of Waaagh! [[Grimgor Ironhide]] showing Grimgor's restructured horde after his loss to [[Vardek Crom]]. No limit to the Black Orc units, but can't take any Goblin units besides Rock Lobbers and Spear Chukkas, and with the new Effigy of Gork unit. ''[[Slayers of Karak Kadrin]]'': What better opportunity for Slayers seeking an honorable death in battle than to throw themselves against the hordes of Archaon? This lets you field an entire army of Dwarven Slayers, with some new special rules to make them more viable and two new units; the Doomseekers (Slayers who wield axeheads welded to chains wrapped around their wrists, which they use like flails) and the Brotherhood of Grimnir (basically Longbeard Troll Slayers with Magic Resistance 1 for +3 points per model, and using up a Special slot). Lead by [[Garagrim Ironfist]], son of [[Ungrim Ironfist]], who runs into battle literally naked in an attempt to die before his father and wipe out the damnation of being born a Slayer in his family. ''The [[Cult of Slaanesh]]'': [[Slaanesh]] worshipping [[Dark Elves]] who feel the time is right to come out and play. Can only have [[Morathi]] as a special character, various Dark Elf characters/units can be upgraded to have the Mark of Slaanesh, and they can include a [[Keeper of Secrets]], [[Warriors of Chaos|Aspiring Champions of Chaos, Marauders of Chaos, Warriors of Chaos, Knights of Chaos,]] [[Chaos Spawn|Fiends of Slaanesh]], and [[Daemonette]]s, infantry or mounted. They also have the unique Druchii Anointed and Devoted of Slaanesh units, and some unique magical items. ''The [[Army of Sylvania]]'': Variant [[Vampire Counts]] army reflecting the Von Carsteins of Sylvania rising to their nation's defense. ''[[Errantry War]]'': A [[Bretonnia]] variant army representing their efforts at crusading against Archaon's hordes. ''[[Clan Eshin]]'': An extra sneaky [[Skaven]] variant army. ''[[Ulthuan Sea Patrol]]'': A [[High Elves]] variant army focused on the naval forces, complete with new spells and a sea-going monster called a Merwyrm as a unit choice.
