Khrone Daemonkin Formations


Formations from the new Khornen Daemonkin codex are here, and there are some good ones that look like a lot of fun.


While I know there are a lot of people upset that units are the same as they are in the other books, I imagine we would hear people cry "foul" if they were either better, or worse. This kind of supplement is exactly what a lot of people have wanted for years. While Tzeentch has always been my favorite of the chaos gods, Khorne is a great place to start.

Here is a list of formations that someone was nice enough to type out and send in. Please remember that without reading them from the book, there is still room for a few minor errors. I don't know if this is a complete list or not.
