	*'''Beasts of Nurgle''' - Toughness 5, 4 Wounds, Shrouded and It Will Not Die? Beasts are amazing tarpitters, and can even charge in the enemy's assault phase. Yes you read that right. One of the best countermeasures to your weaker units being charged in the book. They last forever and will hang around long enough for hopefully some one else to come and help. Pairs well with Plague Drones, BUT remember to keep them in cover! They are Beasts, and as such they ignore difficult terrain, so take advantage of the free saves. Great as road bumps for Death Stars and also good at distracting assaulting units in a shooty Daemons army. As long if you're willing to invest in Tzeentch units and focus on one target at a time, Beasts can really help as a meatshield for your shooty units. Also, in the fluff in the new codex, these creatures are [[Unyuufex\|attention-seeking puppy-like beings who love making new friends and jump at the chance to show their affection. They never fully catch on to the fact that, in their quest to give and receive affection, their size/strength/natural abilities always result in the gruesome deaths of their intended playmates.]]		*'''Beasts of Nurgle''' - Toughness 5, 4 Wounds, Shrouded and It Will Not Die?

	*'''Bloodcrushers of Khorne''' - With 6+ (Why does it even have this?) 5++ and T4, Bloodcrushers are possibly the worst hit by the new codex. They still hit very hard, and now they have 3 wounds, but the whole loss of the 3+ save means that Bloodcrushers will die quickly when in the open. On the other hand, now they're a proper Cavalry unit, so what they lost in survivability they gained in mobility, but that ''won't'' save them. Plus they cost 5pts MORE than their 5th edition counterpart. Trading their 3+ armour save, T, and their Eternal Warrior in exchange for 1W and counting as Cavalry for 45 pts? Pass. On the other other hand, if you manage to cast the Grimore of True names on them, they'll be nigh-unkillable with 3 wounds and a 3++ save. Their main use in this book is to attach Karanak with five Bloodcrushers with an Icon so you can deep strike your Khorne/Slaanesh (HERESY!) units safely (within cover of course) so they can launch an assault next turn after the Bloodcrushers do. Again, if you're worried about their their survival, grant them the True names and they'll do fine for the most part. Using these in range of a Leman Russ, Krak missile long fang squad, or Hive guard tends to end hilariously. For the enemy anyway. For you it'll probably just make you cry.		*'''Bloodcrushers of Khorne''' - With 6+ (Why does it even have this?) 5++ and T4, Bloodcrushers are possibly the worst hit by the new codex.

	*'''Molon Labe:''' One (or more) unit(s) of Bloodletters with (at least) one attached Herald hunkering down in a Fortress of Redemption with heavy bolters and Krakstorm Missiles.

The Herald's BS7 will more often than not prevent the blast marker for the missile silo from scattering. This setup will do 3 things: first, it gives you a very good AA option (a twin-linked, double-ranged lascannon that skyfires and intercepts can down most aircraft with a single shot); second, it'll provide artillery support that obviates the need for a Nurgle Grinder and even outdoes an allied Defiler's battle cannon. Lastly, it's gonna be a very hard thing to deal with: between the building's AV14 and 4 HP per section and the cover save granted to occupants, it's a very tough cookie shooting-wise; anything brave enough to assault it will get a thorough gunning from its occupants and then has to fight Bloodletters in cover in close-combat. To that end, tool up your Herald and/or Bloodreaper for challenge duty or just give them a Blade of Blood if they're gonna be facing down numerous foes (or both if you have the points); this might also be one of the few times where the Exalted Locus of Wrath is useful.		*'''Molon Labe:''' One (or more) unit(s) of Bloodletters with (at least) one attached Herald hunkering down in a Fortress of Redemption with heavy bolters and Krakstorm Missiles.

Fortifications

	===Fortifications===		===Fortifications===
	Before the new book, these were a pretty silly idea, but now that you can choose to deploy regularly, ~~some of~~ these ~~are~~ worth it; Stronghold Assault added a lot of new stuff, too. If you're going to take any of the buildings selections with emplaced guns, it's best to hole-up a small squad of Bloodletters into them; it might seem counter-intuitive to place close-combat troops in a building to engage in ranged shenanigans, but their BS5 makes them hilariously dangerous with any weapon they get their evil little claws on. Otherwise, Plaguebearers are the other troops choice for holding a fort as their toughness and shrouding make them more durable. Basically, if you're gonna take fortifications in your army, you'll have to commit to it.		Before the new book, these were a pretty silly idea, but now that you can choose to deploy regularly, these might actually be worth it.

	*'''Imperial Strongpoint:''' Basically combines the selections below into one fortification selection, with 1-3 bastions, 1-5 aegis defense lines and a skyshield (you could also take an Honoured Imperium, but that's dumb). Individually, these selections have their own merit; this however is possibly overkill unless you really, REALLY need the dakka. Be sure to have enough squads of Bloodletters to occupy it.		*'''Aegis Defense Lines:''' More of the more reliable Skyfire/Interceptor choices, although, being a very choppy army, you probably won't benefit much from the cover saves. A Herald with a minimum unit for meat shields can use it's higher BS to fire the emplacement and hold a backfield objective.
	**'''Aegis Defense Lines:''' ~~One~~ of the more reliable Skyfire/Interceptor choices, although, being a very choppy army, you probably won't benefit much from the cover saves. A Herald ~~of Nurgle~~ with a minimum unit for meat shields can use it's higher BS to fire the emplacement and hold a backfield objective.
	**'''Skyshield Landing Pad:''' Your Deep Strikers don't have to scatter and you can get improved Invulnerable Saves, given you already get 5++.
	**'''Imperial Bastion:''' Put Bloodletters in this guy and put your trollface on as you fire a quad gun or Icarus lascannon at BS5 at their precious aircraft. Oh what's that? They're getting too close? Better loose those 4 heavy bolters on them, then! Few things are as trolly-polly as an Imperial Bastion in Daemon hands garrisoned by Bloodletters.
	**'''Honoured Imperium:''' You are '''NOT''' playing an Army of the Imperium - don't even ''think'' about this one!

	*'''~~Wall of Martyrs Imperial Defense Network~~:''' ~~These are a colossal waste of points and money for Daemon players! A huge section of building and terrain that will plug up your guys' movements with guns that your Bloodletters can~~'t ~~shoot. There may be a slim case for using Vengeance Weapon Batteries, but everything else is fucking useless.~~		*'''Skyshield Landing Pad:''' Your Deep Strikers don't have to scatter and you can get improved Invulnerable Saves, given you already get 5++.
	**'''Wall of Martyrs Imperial Defense Line/Emplacement/Bunker:''' They're only going to ~~get in your way~~ and ~~are nowhere near large enough to hold, much less obscure a Nurgle Grinder.~~
	**'''Wall of Martyrs Firestorm Redoubt:''' It's a Fortress of Redemption, but you can~~'t use your Bloodletters to shoot any of the guns! Spend the extra 20pts. base and~~ get ~~the goddamn Fortress already.~~
	**'''Wall of Martyrs Vengeance Weapon Battery:''' A nice, ~~cheap source of dakka let down by the fact that~~ you can't hole-up Bloodletters inside them - just imagine how sweet it would've been to shoot a Punisher Gatling Cannon at BS5! If you're taking them, upgrade the guns to either battle cannon or quad-Icarus lascannon because punishers at BS3 are meh.

	*'''~~Void Relay Network~~:''' ~~Together, these aren't special but taken separately with other sections they can be interesting (except the Honoured Imperium, of course).~~		*'''Imperial Bastion:''' Put your bloodletters in this guy and put your trollface on as you fire a quad gun at BS5 at their precious aircraft.
	**'''Promethium Relay Pipes:''' Could be hilarious to take in ~~order to give~~ your ~~Flamers torrent... assuming~~ you ~~took flamers.~~
	**'''Void Shield Generator:''' Projects a ~~little AV12 bubble within 12" (can project 2 more~~ at ~~25 pts. each)~~. ~~A glancing/penetrating/D-strength hit will collapse the shield, but it can be revived on a 5+ next turn if the generator is still up. Makes a nice little hidey hole for a Nurgle Grinder or two!~~

	*'''[[Fortress of Redemption]]:''' ~~Everything you like about Imperial defense lines~~ and ~~bastions~~, ~~with more dakka~~. ~~Put~~ a squad of Bloodletters on it ~~and troll with~~ 4 BS5 Heavy Bolters, a BS5 ~~Krak/Fragstorm~~, and a BS5 Lascannon with Interceptor and Skyfire~~. Add a Herald of Khorne for that nearly non-scattering missile silo for extra lulz!~~		*'''Fortress of Redemption:''' Ew, no. It's incredibly expensive and really made for a shooty army, which you aren't. Unless of course you put a squad of Bloodletters on it in which case you can have 4 BS5 Heavy Bolters, a BS5 Krakstorm, and a BS5 Lascannon with Interceptor and Skyfire.

	*'''Aquila Strongpoints''': Taking one of these fortifications is on the high-side of insanely destructive and expensive. Both cost a smidgen over 500 pts. but feature absurdly dangerous weapons and AV'''15''' all around!
	**'''Macro-Cannon:''' The Macro-Cannon gives you either a 6-foot long D-strength AP1 double tap or a 15-foot long apocalyptic mega-blast that can crash and burn nearby flyers or do D3 wounds to FMC's and FGC's. Totally worth it if you have the points and a squad of 'letters (maybe a Herald, too) to emplace.
	**'''Vortex Missile:''' As above but you get vortex missiles instead. Specifically, that's 7 shots with an ''infinite range'' D-strength AP1 large blast that hops around the board after being fired. It is every bit as insane as the Macro-Cannon.

	*'''Herald of Tzeentch''' - A lot of dakka in a small package. Upgrade to Mastery 2/3 and if you roll on Change, hope for the third power or take the primaris and roll all others on divination. A lot of dakka with great div buffs zipping around on a disk is very effective. A solid choice. The chariot he can take has weaker armor than a rhino (10 on all sides) meaning that bolters can glance it to death with sixes, but hang on - you ~~can dash ahead 12", use psychic powers without penalty and then flat-out in the shooting phase to cover your ass~~. This guy is amazing if you roll an 11 on your warpstorm, since the new Herald has to be BASIC and Tzeentch Heralds happen to be Psykers as basic, so you gain a nice Divination bonus for free, whereas the other Heralds are only really usable with upgrades.		*'''Herald of Tzeentch''' - A lot of dakka in a small package.

	**'''Exalted Flamer''' - A recent issue of White Dwarf weekly now allows single units of Exalted Flamers to be taken outside of their chariot for half the points cost. Though it gained independent character, it isn't jump infantry unlike regular Flamers and its shooting attacks are still classified as heavy weapons. Actually, it's kinda better this way as it allows it to hide away in terrain along with some Pink Horrors and provide some extra ranged power while camping some objective. Counts toward your Herald allowance.		**'''Exalted Flamer''' - A recent issue of White Dwarf weekly now allows single units of Exalted Flamers to be taken outside of their chariot for half the points cost.

	*'''The Changeling''' - Now works similarly to the fantasy Changeling, with the caveat that you only alter your own profile. You can replace any or all of your WS, Strength, Initiative, toughness, and/or attacks with that of a single model in base contact. Might be useful to tie up a generic close combat character, but will quickly get outclassed by anything with special snowflake gear. Statistics will never be in the Changeling's favour. The best you can hope for is 50%, given the target has no wargear at all. One fun trick is against characters that have an 'X' or '' for their characteristic like Crowe's attacks. Since this means the longhand description counts as his characteristic, you copy that as well. The question is: do you use the same stance as Crowe, choose your own, or just copy the number of attacks and forgo the rest of the benefits? Discuss this with your group before playing while we wait for an FAQ, but you may have to wait a while as GW doesn't seem to care much about FAQing rule discrepancies in the Daemons codex. It's been months and all we have are some corrected typos.		*'''The Changeling''' - Now works similarly to the fantasy Changeling, with the caveat that you only alter your own profile.
