Archaon's Horde was a variant of the Hordes of Chaos army for Warhammer Fantasy 6th edition, released as part of the Storm of Chaos campaign. As its name suggests, it is a variant Warriors of Chaos army that specifically represents the forces directly aligned to Archaon or under the command of one of his lieutenants. This means that it cannot feature beastmen or daemon auxilaries, but its forces are especially numerous and disciplined. It is generally most remembered for being the army that introduced the Hellcannon, which went on to become a mainstay in the Warriors of Chaos army.

Special Rules[edit | edit source]

  • Jealousy of the Gods: An Archaon's Horde army may only contain the Chaos Mark of one Chaos God, other than Chaos Undivided. The faithful of each Chaos God flock together to maintain purity of purpose during an invasion on this scale.
  • Grand Army of Darkness: An Archaon's Horde army may include multiple units of Chaos Chosen, instead of the normal 0-1 unit restriction for a Hordes of Chaos army.
  • Legions of the Damned: Chaos Marauders units numbering at least 25 models, and Chaos Warriors units numbering at least 16 models, can update models to Standard Bearer, Musician and Champion for free.
