Daemons and Thousand Sons in Index: Chaos



Chaos Space Marine Codex FAQ v1.2 has been released, updating and giving points for Daemons.

Notice that GW is already making alterations to the point costs... adjusting things up and down according to feedback and gameplay.

  • Firstly, we’re providing updated points for lesser Daemons for free in this errata, as well as making some changes to Horrors. 
  • Horrors now cost slightly more points, while Pink Horrors cost less. You’ll also need 10 or more Pink Horrors in a unit to make full use of Smite. 
  • Finally, Plaguebearers, Daemonettes and Bloodletters now cost fewer points, making them a more attractive option when building your army. 
  • Secondly, if you’re a Thousand Sons player, you may have noticed that the Dark Hereticus discipline in the new codex is larger than the one in the Index. Don’t worry – the discipline isn’t being replaced and you won’t need to get Codex: Chaos Space Marines to keep using it. Similarly, if you have Codex: Chaos Space Marines, you’re welcome to use the expanded Dark Hereticus powers with your Thousand Sons Psykers. If you’re a Daemons player, this change also applies to Be’lakor.
