Daemonic Herald of Tzeentch (Aura): While a friendly LEGIONES DAEMONICA TZEENTCH CORE unit is within 6" of this model, each time a model in that unit makes an attack, you can re-roll a wound roll of 1. Fateskimmer: In your Command phase, select one friendly SCREAMERS unit within 6" of this model. Until the start of your next Command phase, each time a model in that unit makes a melee attack, an unmodified hit roll of 6 automatically wounds the target. |
| This model can attempt to manifest two psychic powers in your Psychic phase, and attempt to deny one psychic power in your opponent’s Psychic phase. It knows Smite and two psychic powers from the Pandaemoniac discipline. | |

Datasheet-related Stratagems
When Horrors of Tzeentch uneleash waves of overlapping flames, few are the foes who can escape them.
Many Tzeentchian daemons possess slavering maws that drool corrosive warp-stuff quite capable of eating through or transmogrifying the toughest corporeal armour.
Arcane knowledge and mystical power have ever been the domain of Tzeentch and his minions.
Many daemons can shift their forms at will, drawing on the powers of the warp to manifest new weapons, powers and otherworldly abilities in the blink of an eye.
Daemons are not mortal creatures, their forms shifting between the warp and realspace, passing through solid barriers with ease.
Born of the warp, daemons are highly attuned to its power and tides, able to draw upon it and weave it at will.
This daemon prises open an unnatural shortcut through the warp.
Tzeentchian daemons advance wreathed in kaleidoscopic flame.
The daemons unleash transmutational energies from their icon.
Psychic Powers
Smite
Smite has a warp charge value of 5. Add 1 to the warp charge value of this psychic power for each other attempt that has been made to manifest this power by a unit from your army in this phase, whether that attempt was successful or not. If manifested, the closest enemy unit within 18" of and visible to the psyker suffers D3 mortal wounds. If the result of the Psychic test was 11 or more, that unit suffers D6 mortal wounds instead.- Warp Charge 5: A Psychic test of 5+ is required to manifest Smite.
- Warp charge increases by 1 for each other attempt to manifest Smite made in this phase.
- If manifested, closest visible enemy unit in 18" suffers D3 mortal wounds.
- If manifested with a Psychic test result of 11+, enemy instead suffers D6 mortal wounds.
Pandaemoniac Discipline
| D6 | PSYCHIC POWER | |||||||||
| 1 | BOON OF CHANGE As the daemon chants, its minions begin to twist and new forms take shape as the will of Tzeentch demands. Blessing: Boon of Change has a warp charge value of 6. If manifested, select one friendly LEGIONES DAEMONICA TZEENTCH unit within 18" of this PSYKER and roll one D3. Until the start of your next Psychic phase, that unit gains the relevant bonus from the table below:
If the result of the Psychic test was 9 or more, you can select which result applies instead of rolling a D3. |
| 2 | BOLT OF CHANGE The daemon unleashes a bolt of warp energy that afflicts the foe with sickening and uncontrollable mutations. Witchfire: Bolt of Change has a warp charge value of 7. If manifested, select one enemy unit within 18" of and visible to this PSYKER, and roll nine D6:
|
| 3 | GAZE OF FATE Using its powers of precognition to unravel the strands of destiny, this daemon extracts secrets from the sea of souls and channels them through its own potent form. Blessing: Gaze of Fate has a warp charge value of 7. If manifested, at the end of the battle round, if this PSYKER is on the battlefield, you can retain up to 2 unspent Warp Storm points. |
| 4 | TREASON OF TZEENTCH The psyker reaches into the mind of its victim, subverting their will and turning them upon their own allies. Malediction: Treason of Tzeentch has a warp charge value of 7. If manifested, select one enemy unit within 18" of and visible to this PSYKER. Until the start of your next Psychic phase, that enemy unit is not affected by the aura abilities of other enemy units. |
| 5 | INFERNAL FLAMES Cackling madly, the psyker’s minions are wreathed in pink and blue flames that leap forth to consume their foes. Blessing: Infernal Flames has a warp charge value of 7. If manifested, select one friendly LEGIONES DAEMONICA TZEENTCH CORE unit within 18" of and visible to this PSYKER. Until the start of your next Psychic phase, each time a model in that unit makes a ranged attack, add 1 to that attack’s wound roll. |
| 6 | INFERNAL GATEWAY Opening a portal to the warp, this daemon creates a tear in the fabric of the mortal plane that sucks foes into certain oblivion. Witchfire: Infernal Gateway has a warp charge value of 8. If manifested, the closest enemy unit within 18" of and visible to this PSYKER and each other enemy unit within 3" of that enemy unit suffers D3 mortal wounds. If the result of the Psychic test was 12 or more, each affected unit suffers 3 mortal wounds instead. |
This datasheet has HQ Battlefield Role. Full list of Chaos Daemons units sharing same Battlefield Role follows:
- Engagement Range: 1" horizontally + 5" vertically.
- Models cannot be set up within Engagement Range of enemy models.

If a model has more than one melee weapon, select which it will use before resolving any attacks. If a model has more than one melee weapon and can make several attacks, it can split them between these weapons however you wish – declare which attacks are being made with which weapons before any attacks are resolved. If the selected weapon has more than one profile that you must choose between, you must declare which profile is being used at the same time. Different attacks made with such a weapon can be made using different profiles if you wish.
If your unit is making attacks with more than one melee weapon against a unit, and those weapons have different characteristics profiles, then after you have resolved an attack with one of those weapons you must, if any other weapons with the same characteristics profile are also being used to make attacks against that unit, resolve those attacks before resolving any attacks against the target with a weapon that has a different characteristics profile. Note that all the attacks you have declared are always resolved against the target unit even if, when you come to resolve an individual attack, no models in the target unit remain in range (this can happen because of models being destroyed and removed from the battlefield as the result of resolving other attacks made by the attacking model’s unit first).
- Each close combat attack is made with a melee weapon.
- A model makes attacks using the close combat weapon profile if it has no other melee weapons.
- If a unit attacks with multiple weapons, all attacks made with weapons that have the same profile must be resolved before resolving attacks with the next.
The LEGIONES DAEMONICA keyword is used in the following Chaos Daemons datasheets:
Daemons are madness given form. Their very bodies are fashioned from the stuff of the warp, and are difficult to destroy through conventional means. By far the surest way to banish them, short of ritual witchery, is to fight them at close quarters where a warrior’s conviction and faith may strike as surely as their blade.
Instead of a normal Save characteristic as described in the Warhammer 40,000 Core Book, each LEGIONES DAEMONICA datasheet has a Daemonic Save characteristic (abbreviated to DSv on that datasheet’s profile line). This characteristic has two values. The first characteristic is used when a melee attack is allocated to that model, while the second characteristic is used when a ranged attack is allocated to that model. In either case, this saving throw cannot be modified in any way.The WARP LOCUS keyword is used in the following Chaos Daemons datasheets:
The KHORNE keyword is used in the following Chaos Daemons datasheets:
The TZEENTCH keyword is used in the following Chaos Daemons datasheets:
The NURGLE keyword is used in the following Chaos Daemons datasheets:
The SLAANESH keyword is used in the following Chaos Daemons datasheets:
- KHORNE
- TZEENTCH
- NURGLE
- SLAANESH
Example: If you include a Daemon Prince in your army, and you decide it is a Daemon Prince of Khorne, its keyword becomes KHORNE and its Prince of Chaos ability reads, ‘While a friendly LEGIONES DAEMONICA KHORNE CORE unit is within 6" of this model, each time a model in that unit makes an attack, re-roll a hit roll of 1.’
Daemonic legions tear through the fabric of realspace, malevolent entities flickering into being like phantasms from a nightmare. Worse still, as terror and panic take hold of their victims, so their mortal souls become ever easier prey for the entities pouring through from the warp.
During deployment, you can set up this unit in the warp instead of setting it up on the battlefield. If you do so, then in the Reinforcements step of one of your Movement phases you can set up this unit anywhere on the battlefield that is more than 9" away from any enemy models, or more than 6" away from any enemy models and wholly within 6" of a friendly WARP LOCUS model that was on the battlefield at the start of your turn. If that WARP LOCUS model has an Allegiance keyword, the unit being set up can only use this ability if it has the same Allegiance keyword.If every unit from your army has the LEGIONES DAEMONICA keyword, then in the Reinforcements step of one of your Movement phases you can instead set up this unit anywhere on the battlefield with one of the following restrictions:
- Wholly within your deployment zone and more than 3" away from any enemy models.
- Neither wholly within your deployment zone nor within your opponent’s deployment zone, and more than a number of inches away from each enemy unit, equal to the current Leadership characteristic of that enemy unit (to a minimum of 3" and a maximum of 9").
To encounter a creature of the warp is to face a being utterly anathema to the fundamental laws of reality. Even the most emotionless warrior feels an unnatural primal terror while in their presence.
While an enemy unit is within 6" of this unit, subtract 1 from that enemy unit’s Leadership characteristic and subtract 1 from any Combat Attrition tests taken for that enemy unit.When daemons pour into realspace, maelstroms of warp energy spill through in their wake. Manifest emotion and unbridled, nightmarish energies twist all that they touch, reshaping the landscape into bizarre forms and tormenting mortal beings.
This ability can be used to apply Warp Storm effects to eligible units from your army.The LEGIONES DAEMONICA, TZEENTCH and CORE keywords are used in the following Chaos Daemons datasheets:

If the result of the wound roll is less than the required number, the attack fails and the attack sequence ends. An unmodified wound roll of 6 always successfully wounds the target, and an unmodified wound roll of 1 always fails. A wound roll can never be modified by more than -1 or +1. This means that if, after all the cumulative modifiers to a wound roll have been calculated, the total modifier would be -2 or worse, it is changed to be -1. Similarly, if, after all the cumulative modifiers to a wound roll have been calculated, the total modifier would be +2 or better, it is changed to be +1.
To manifest the psychic power, you must first pass a Psychic test. The opposing player can then select one of their PSYKER units that is within 24" of the PSYKER unit attempting to manifest the power and attempt to deny that power before its effects are resolved by passing a Deny the Witch test.
So long as the Psychic test was successful and the psychic power was not denied by a successful Deny the Witch test, the psychic power is successfully manifested and its effects, which will be described in the power itself, are then resolved. If the PSYKER unit can attempt to manifest more than one psychic power in its Psychic phase, you can then attempt to manifest those, one at a time, as described above. The number of psychic powers each PSYKER unit can attempt to manifest in its Psychic phase is listed on its datasheet.
- Select psychic power.
- You cannot select the same psychic power more than once per battle round, unless that power is Smite.
- Attempt to manifest the psychic power by taking a Psychic test.
- The opponent can attempt to deny the psychic power by taking a Deny the Witch test.
- If successfully manifested, resolve the psychic power’s effects.
- Select another psychic power.
- Deny the Witch: Passed if 2D6 exceeds result of the opposing PSYKER’s Psychic test.
- Only one attempt can be made to deny each psychic power.
If an attack inflicts mortal wounds in addition to the normal damage, resolve the normal damage first. If an attack inflicts mortal wounds in addition to the normal damage, but the normal damage is subsequently saved, the target unit still suffers the mortal wounds, as described before. If an ability modifies the damage inflicted by a weapon, and that weapon can inflict mortal wounds in addition to the normal damage, the modifier does not apply to any mortal wounds that are inflicted (unless the rule specifically states otherwise).
- Each mortal wound inflicted on a unit causes one model in the unit to lose one wound.
- No saving throws can be made against mortal wounds.
- Mortal wounds inflicted by attacks in addition to normal damage always apply, even if normal damage saved.
- Psychic test: Passed if 2D6 equals or exceeds psychic power’s warp charge.
- If double 1 or double 6 rolled, PSYKER suffers Perils of the Warp.
- Warp Charge 5: A Psychic test of 5+ is required to manifest Smite.
- Warp charge increases by 1 for each other attempt to manifest Smite made in this phase.
- If manifested, closest visible enemy unit in 18" suffers D3 mortal wounds.
- If manifested with a Psychic test result of 11+, enemy instead suffers D6 mortal wounds.

The HORRORS keyword is used in the following Chaos Daemons datasheets:
If an attack is made with a weapon that has an ability that says it ‘automatically hits the target’, no hit roll is made – that attack simply scores one hit on the target unit. An unmodified hit roll of 6 always scores a hit, and an unmodified hit roll of 1 always fails. A hit roll can never be modified by more than -1 or +1. This means that if, after all the cumulative modifiers to a hit roll have been calculated, the total modifier would be -2 or worse, it is changed to be -1. Similarly, if, after all the cumulative modifiers to a hit roll have been calculated, the total modifier would be +2 or better, it is changed to be +1.
The LEGIONES DAEMONICA, TZEENTCH and PSYKER keywords are used in the following Chaos Daemons datasheets:
- If this model has the TZEENTCH, NURGLE or SLAANESH keyword, it has the PSYKER keyword.- Normal Move: Models move up to M".
- Cannot move within Engagement Range of any enemy models.

The LEGIONES DAEMONICA, TZEENTCH and ICON keywords are used in the following Chaos Daemons datasheets:
– if equipped with the Daemonic icon this unit gains the ICON keyword.
Many daemons fashion forms for themselves that exhibit strange and esoteric weapons, with which they give vent to their spiteful natures. While most fight with blade or claws, often they can also lash out with spiked tails, envenomed pseudopods or other bizarre appendages. Daemons may also ride to battle atop other daemonic creatures that make attacks with weapons of their own, or may be attended by daemonic minions who swipe at those who draw near their masters.
Many Chaos Daemons weapons are malefic weapons. Such a weapon will have an ability that reads ‘Malefic’ and then a value, such as 2 or 4. Each time the bearer fights, it makes a number of additional attacks with that weapon equal to that value, and no more than that number of attacks can be made with that weapon while resolving that fight. If a model is equipped with more than one malefic weapon, it can make additional attacks with each one it is equipped with.Unless otherwise specified, malefic weapons are never affected by effects or abilities that allow models to make additional attacks, or abilities that would add to, subtract from, or improve their characteristics in any way.
Example: A Skullmaster is equipped with a blade of blood and its Juggernaut’s bladed horn, which has the ‘Malefic 4’ ability. Each time this model fights, it makes a number of attacks equal to its Attacks characteristic with its blade of blood, then an additional 4 attacks with the bladed horn profile.
The FLY keyword is used in the following Chaos Daemons datasheets:
– if equipped with the Wings this unit gains the FLY keyword.If a unit includes any models equipped with Assault weapons, that unit is still eligible to shoot with in your Shooting phase even if it has Advanced this turn, but you can only resolve attacks using those Assault weapons when you select that unit to shoot with. If a model shoots an Assault weapon in the same turn in which its unit has Advanced, subtract 1 from hit rolls when resolving that weapon’s attacks.
- Can be shot even if firing model’s unit Advanced.
- Subtract 1 from hit rolls if the firing model’s unit Advanced.
