There are lots of little images and details on what Chaos Daemons are getting this weekend.  Let’s put it all together:

So far we have seen the following two images directly related to Chaos Daemons:

This one outlines the Chaos Daemons card set and folks have translated the key german bits and found this:

There are 21 Spell cards in the Chaos Daemons deck – Seven Spells each from three Disciplines: Excess, Change, Plague.  Note these are the EXACT same names as the psychic disciplines in the Chaos Daemons codex and not a match for the disciplines in the CSM codex.  The current Chaos Daemons codex has 4 powers per discipline, so that looks like we get 3 new ones apiece (9 new powers total).

These two formations have been transcribed as:

  • 10 Formations
  • 6 Unit Datasheets
  • Warlord Traits
  • Psychic powers
  • Relics

So basically this fits the pattern of what we saw for Astra Miliarum, White Scars & Raven Guard in the Kauyon and Mont’ka campaign books.  GW has a winning format and they are sticking to it.

~It looks like both the Wulfen and the Chaos Daemons will get thier day in the sun – this weekend.
