Warhammer: Daemons of Chaos 9th Ed 1.3 out now!

This update changes the following:

  • Clarified that daemonic ward save does not apply to mounts.
  • Reign of Chaos: Whenever you roll for the Winds of Magic, total the two scores (in games where you roll 4D6, 6D6 etc, divide the result by 2, 3 etc) and immediately resolve the result shown below.
  • Dropped price of all Lords by 30 pts, Heroes by 20 pts.
  • Lvl 1 Wizard upgrade for Heralds costs 50 pts.
  • Fixed bug with Contorted Epitome having S4 instead of S3.
  • Fixed bug with Flesh Hounds having WS5 instead of WS4.
  • Fixed bug with Firewyrm having BS0 instead of BS4.
  • Removed champion option from Fiends of Slaanesh (since the other Beasts do not have one).
  • Bloodthirsters can take Hellfire and Relentless Hunter upgrades.
  • Be'lakor is a Monster, costs 520 pts.
  • Clarification: Coils of the Serpent is a direct damage spell with a range of 12" that targets a single model (even a character in a unit)
  • The Battle Standard Bearer can have a magic banner with no points limit. However, a model carrying a magic standard can only carry other magic items, Gifts and Artefacts up to a total 25 points.
  • Blue Fire of Tzeentch boosted version cast on 9+.
  • Fleshy Abundance boosted version has 36" range rather than aura effect.
  • Acquiescence boosted version is 10+ to cast.

  1. Flesh hounds ws5 was a "bug"? Strange dice they are ws5 in 8th.

    Also sad that skullcannon is still bad ( yes, mono khorne player here)

    1. Juggernauts were WS5 as well, did some minor adjustments to balance them out a bit. They are a core unit now at least! :)

      Don't think the Skull Cannon is bad, but it's more expensive than in 8th ed at least!

    2. yeah its twice as expensive and cannons are worse, its worse than the ogre ironblaster yet much more expensive, but I still use it, since Its one of the few options when going mono.
