Codex - Chaos Daemons Angry Initiative Edition

Introdoction

Angry codexes are an attempt to improve internal and external balance. Check out the Angry Codex hub for the other angry codexes.

Random is fine, that is what chaos is all about. However. When you put in 5+ different tables with more than 30 different results, it will require a lot of looking up charts and rules. This codex will attempt to get rid of the time gobbling monster, which is the endless number of charts and tables. While this reduces the random, I believe it will create a more smooth game experience.

Disclaimer

Games Workshop in no way endorses this codex nor any of the other Angry Codices. No infringement is intended with this work, nor any other of the Angry Codices. The intent of the angry codices is NOT to make GW go out of business, but rather to improve the quality of the hobby, which leads to a happier and larger player base.

Editing

Feel free to edit wordings to improve readability. Before adding anything to an angry codex, first write in the discussion page of the page in question and say what you want to change. If no one responds within 1 week, feel free to change it. If someone objects you should civilly discuss and prove why your idea is good and how it fits with fluff/is more balanced etc. etc. AngryPirate does not follow these rules, mainly because he is mostly editing stuff he himself wrote. If you don´t agree with an edit AngryPirate has made you can PM him or write in the talk page.

List of Changes and reasoning:

• Removed random rewards. - Too time consuming for what they did.
• Added the three bloodthirster types from the Khorne Daemonkin book and made 2 new greater daemons for each of the other gods. - While they aren´t individually customizable the fact that there is 3 for each god should provide a fair bit of customizability.
• Skarbrand +100 points + stat increase. - Skarbrand is the king of bloodthirsters.
• Removed the 2+ re-rollable Tzeentch exploit. - Broken, fixed it.
• Daemons of opposite allignment don´t like eachother. - Fluff, immersion, fun.
• Heavily buffed all the daemonic disciplines. - Don´t even remember what they did, nobody took them, they were not fun, fixed it.
• Horrors are a ranged unit. - too many psychic dice to handle. You can get roughly as many dice, you just have to work a bit harder for it. Horrors were basically power dice generators which is fairly boring.
• Blood Letters are anti light-medium infantry. - It fits that blood letters shed a lot of blood, didn´t really want daemonettes to do it.
• Screamers of Tzeentch are not as good against infantry, Initiative 1. - They were a bit too good, wasn´t sure if the removal of 2+ re-rollable was enough.
• Nerfed Soul Grinder.
• Skull cannon of khorne has shorter range. - Shouldn´t be hiding in the back, blood for the blood god!

Notes

Daemonology Discipline

Unless otherwise noted psykers may not generate their powers from the Daemonology discipline.

Summoning Greater Daemons

When you succesfully manifest the Possesion psychic power you may choose between any of the 12 non-unique Greater Daemons.

Random Strength, AP etc. etc.

Whenever a weapon details a random element this is rolled after the target has been chosen but before rolling any dice. For example if a unit of Pink Horrors wish to shoot. First you choose your target, this could be a unit of Terminators, then you roll for the Strength and AP-value of the attack. Then finally you roll to hit and to wound, finally rolling saves if applicable. Or another example a unit Plaguebearers is engaged against two units, first you direct how many attacks go against each enemy unit, next you randomise the Poison value, then you roll to hit, to wound and saves if applicable.
