Hedonites of Slaanesh – Lord of Hysteria
6" 5 4+ 2 Lords of Hysteria are champions devoted to the Sacred Seduction of Paramountcy. Obsessed are they with being known as the greatest and grossest of revellers, they have sold their souls to powerful pleasure-daemons in exchange for both physical prowess and, more dangerously, the ability to plunge otherwise reasoning souls into fits of truly orgiastic violence. | ||

SLAUGHTEROUS CELEBRANTS: Those Hedonites who follow a Lord of Hysteria have been stoked into such an inferno of depraved and mindless revelry that to approach them is to be dragged into a pit of wild, slavering animals and soon ripped to shreds.
Effect: While they are wholly within 12" of and visible to this unit, melee weapons used by friendly HEDONITES OF SLAANESH INFANTRY units have Anti-charge (+1 Rend).

3.1 Regiments
Armies are made up of one or more regiments, each of which is led by a Hero. You must have at least 1 regiment in your army, and you can include a maximum of 5 regiments. To add a regiment, pick 1 HERO from your faction, then pick up to 3 non‑HERO units to accompany them.Each HERO’s battle profile lists which units can be added to their regiment, and each non-HERO unit’s battle profile lists any relevant keywords it has. The battle profiles of some HEROES may say that they can be added to the regiment of another HERO in place of a non-HERO unit in that regiment.
The PARAGON keyword is used in the following Hedonites of Slaanesh warscrolls:
6.0 Visibility
A target model is visible to another model (which we’ll call the ‘observing model’) if you can draw a straight line through the air (whether horizontal, diagonal or vertical) from any point on the observing model to any point on the target model that does not intersect any objects except for other models in the observing model’s unit. A target unit is visible to an observing unit if at least 1 model in the target unit is visible to at least 1 model in the observing unit. A model is always considered to be visible to itself.If a rule or ability requires a target to be both within a given range of and visible to the unit using that ability, or to a model in that unit, both conditions must be met by the same model in the target. You could not, for instance, target a unit where one model is within range but not visible and another model is not in range but is visible.
| ||
| In some cases, it might not be immediately clear whether a model is visible. If so, stoop down to get a look from behind the observing model. If any part of the other model is visible, even if it is just the tip of a spear, then that model is visible for rules purposes. | ||

Anti-X (+1 Rend)
Add 1 to this weapon’s Rend characteristic if the target has the keyword after ‘Anti-’ or fulfils the condition after ‘Anti-’. Multiples of this ability are cumulative. For example, if a weapon has both Anti-charge (+1 Rend) and Anti-HERO (+1 Rend), then add 2 to the Rend characteristic of the weapon for attacks that target a HERO that charged in the same turn.
