==Rise of the Red Corsairs and Fifth Edition== Long before [[Matt Ward]] somehow managed to make the [[Ultramarines|Smurfs]] more hated than they already were - something [[/tg/]] had long since thought [[Troll|impossible]] - the Chaos Codex had gotten a reasonable update. Most of it was streamlining, pure and simple, but a lot of it was done with the intent to make Chaos forces of every stripe that much more viable and to put an end to the godless [[Gay|faggotry]] that was [[Emperor's Children]] [[FAIL|Noise Marine spam]] [[FATAL|raping]] entire armies in the opening salvo (for example). Players wanted more flexibility with their choices, more opportunities to play with unique options, (WTF are you smoking? CSM 4.0 took away so much stuff) and less ridiculously unbalanced exclusive shit that ruined everything (read: Iron Warriors fielding squads upon squads of Obliterators backed by [[Basilisk]]s). With so many changes to the system, Chaos largely got nerfed and saw marked improvements in a few areas ([[fail|at the cost of all the unique legion rules,]] [[herp|pages of]] [[derp|wargear]] [[brundlepenis|and mutations,]] [[AIDS|and anything else that made them stand out from vanilla marines]]), but since nobody liked the [[Black Legion]] or its [[derp|retarded]] leader [[Abaddon]], a long-available but largely unsung chapter, the Red Corsairs, got pushed into prominence... ...[[FAIL|before being cunt-punted back into a paragraph and Huron's special character page]] in favour of [[Crimson Slaughter|a bunch]] of no-name not-[[World Eaters]]. Vigilus Ablaze grants them tabletop rules, which are quite possibly the best out of any of the Chaos Space Marine subfactions. Not only can they advance and charge (the old generalist Renegade Chapter trait which already was pretty good), but now they get extra command points from detachments with three or more units. This is also in addition to an update on their war with the [[White Scars]]. Long story short, they wrecked shit and kidnapped Chapter Master Jubal Khan. The remaining Scars then had to stage a raid to free the hostages, but by this point Jubal was so damaged that he wouldn't be able to do much. As of present, they're still within the area and are continuing with raids around the sector as Huron establishes a new capital.
