	In addition to the eight original warbands duking it out in the myriad of locales of the Eightpoints, many other groups of warriors have been announced in the form of Warband Cards.

Unfortunately, we aren't getting new minis for them though, which is a huge bummer, seeing as the Chaos minis look [[awesome]] However, you can always use the [[Warhammer Underworlds]]' ones when applicable.

	**'''Reactions:''' Introduced with Heart of Ghur, you now have reactions to use, with each faction gaining one unique reaction and some universal rules. These can only be used when a fighter either was not yet activated or used the Wait action as their first turn. This will eat up an action for fighting, meaning a fighter that reacts before activating can only take one action and cannot Wait to blow another reaction while one that spent an action to Wait cannot activate again.		**'''Reactions:''' Introduced with Heart of Ghur, you now have reactions to use, with each faction gaining one unique reaction and some universal rules.

	''Universal Abilities''		It should be noted that there is a pretty steep power disparity between the "pure" Chaos warbands which were designed and developed specifically for Warcry and the AoS warbands who merely received some warband cards so that [[Games_Workshop\|GeeDubs]] could siphon more £££ out of us lowly mortals. With the release of the second wave of warband cards, it doesn't seem like this issue is getting resolved anytime soon. In fact it appears to be getting worse.

	An interesting detail that ties all the warbands together is the fact they all know little to nothing about the dark gods, referring to them with pseudo names, titles, or even worshipping lesser/greater daemons as the actual gods themselves. Those who travel to the Eightpoints see Archaon-senpai as a physical embodiment of Chaos and fight for his approval. Interestingly enough, a new non-chaos warband has been revealed which could indicate a trend for future releases.

			===Darkoath Savagers===
			Introduced in the Red Harvest box. The Darkoath Barbarians are essentially what remains of the old Chaos Marauders and the like, a bunch of angry men in loincloths who fight with large weapons to honor the gods.

			===Tarantulos Brood===
			Introduced in the Red Harvest box. These freaky man-spiders are the result of prolonged exposure to Varanite, the very realmstone of the Varanspire. They constantly collect this stuff as tribute to their patron, a Spider-God who is completely different from the ones the Spiderfang Grots follow.

			===Rotmire Creed===
			Introduced in the Heart of Ghur box. A Nurglite band of guerilla warriors who experiment on their victims with all sorts of horrid diseases in pursuit of some sort of immortality.

			===Horns of Hashut===
			Introduced in the Heart of Ghur box. Turns out that [[Hashut]] has plenty of followers that aren't [[Chaos Dwarfs\|evil tall-hatted Dwarfs]] in this edition. They're just as violent and dedicated to burning down everything as well, so this might be considered a net positive to his portfolio.
