=====Auxiliary (1+)===== *'''Gorethunder Battery:''' 1 Khorne herald on Blood Throne and 3 Skull Cannons. Can elect to sacrifice firing all 3 to fire one Apocalyptic Blast, Ignores Cover, AP3 shot. A Daemon version of that bullshit Vindicator formation, which is very nice. Remember those Dark Angel bike formations that everyone hates? Take a Gorethunder Battery and a Nurgle Prince with wings and Grotti the Nurgling and watch any Space marine bike formation die. S8, 10 Inch Apocalyptic Blast, AP3, Ignore Cover and Instant Death thanks to Grotti so no FnP, just go ahead and drink their tears. *'''Burning Skyhost:''' 1 Herald of Tzeentch on Disc or Burning Chariot (can be swapped for The Blue Scribes), 9 units of either Screamers of Tzeentch or Burning Chariots. Chariots can do Slash attacks, inflicting D6 str 5 ap 4 hits on a unit they move over with the Soulblaze and Warpflame special rules. Screamers get +1 hit when making Slash attacks and also gain the Soulblaze and Warpflame rules when on their attacks. Still benefit from Herald's Loci within 12". *'''Rotswarm:''' Herald of Nurgle with 7 units of Plaguedrones or Beasts. All gain Poisoned Hammer of Wraith. Pick 1 unit within 12" of Herald. Herald makes a leadership test for that unit to re-roll failed charges and gain +3 attacks. If they fail the test, they must charge the closest target. Poisoned HoW for always 4+ to wound is nice and even if the test is failed, you were gonna charge the closest unit anyway if you positioned you unit correctly. *'''Grand Cavalcade:''' 1 Herald of Slaanesh which must take a Steed of Slaanesh with 6 units of Seekers, hellflayers, or Seeker Cavalades. All chariots in this formation inflict an additonal d6 strength 4 hammer of wrath hits. All units add 6" when running or flat-out. This, plus the +6" to run moves for being Slaanesh cavalry (only +3" on the chariots, though) means this makes an already fast unit frighteningly speedy. *'''The Hunter of Khorne:''' Just Karanak. *'''Daemonflock:''' 1 unit of Furies. Essentially used as bait to draw enemy fire, or to sneak up and kill Imperial Guard or Tau who still get terrified of these things. *'''Forgehost:''' 3 Soulgrinders. Every time one Soulgrinder from this formation inflicts an enemy causalty during a shooting or assualt phase all other Soulgrinders in the formation can reroll all their to hit and to wound rolls until the end of the phase. This formation is actually better taken as allies for Chaos Space Marines, as it effectively replaces the Defiler with a superior unit.
