40K RUMORS: Chaos Legions Update

Something wicked this way comes… Here the latest scuttlebutt doing the rounds on the Traitor Legions.

via theDarkGeneral

-The new codex is squarely focused on the original 9 Traitor Legions and their factions. More recent renegade chapters (like the Red Corsairs) may get the cold shoulder.

-Chaos to get a form of Preferred Enemy on certain units.

-Daemon Princes may wind up being the only “Marked” Daemonic creatures – meaning either no god-specific daemons, or god-specific units but without the use of “Marks”.

-Daemon Princes moving in line with the ones in the Daemon Codex but “with a more Chaos Space Marine feel”, probably with specific benefits for different Legions.

-Chosen may not have access to Terminator Armour.

-Cult Terminators return in some form.

-Another “generic cult terminator” unit that gains special rules according to the Legion being played.

–Stickmonkey chimes in to say a plastic Chaos drop pod is in the codex, (Dreadclaw???) but not part of the initial release window.

Further Chaos Legions rumors are here.  Have at it folks!
