Staking on this further is the rule that you cannot include any more Cultist than Traitoris Astartes Core Infantry – which sadly means you cannot do a pure cultist army (However it wouldn’t surprise me if we get a way to do this in a narrative book later down the line). Firstly each detachment can only include a single Chaos Lord, Dark Commune and Daemon Prince. As we have seen in other recent codexes, we have a couple of rules that dictate how the army can be constructed. Units in a Battle-Forged army get access to some new abilities and restrictions. So let’s take a look at what makes the army tick with their core rules. I always find that the lore section is something that always gets me excited to start exploring a new army, and this book is no different! As ever we also get a full gallery of miniatures including the new units (Sadly these kits are not up for pre order at the same time as this book, but hopefully they will be available soon!) with the new Possessed and Accursed Mutants being the real starts of the show! Army Rules We also get some great stories and narrative interspersed between these. From a lore perspective we also get updated lore on the forces of the traitor marines, each of the Legions, info on the renegade warbands and even old favourites such as Fabius Bile and Huron Blackheart. From the stylised front cover with evocative reds blacks and blues, to some stunning pieces throughout, the book is a real treat for the eyes. The first 50 or so pages are dedicated to lore, and I have to say that Games Workshop continue to put out some absolutely gorgeous artwork in their books. While all the other Space Marines got their extra wounds and abilities, the Chaos Space Marines were stuck with their single wound and old book – and with each passing book the glimmer of hope that we might just be the next one grew.īut now thankfully there is no more waiting – The Chaos Space Marines have their new Codex, and they look really good too! In this review we’ll be taking a look at what they now have, reviewing the profiles and checking out their Crusade content!įirstly, this is a pretty chunky book! With 184 pages this is a hefty tome. It’s safe to say that for a while Chaos Space Marines have become somewhat of a meme in recent times. If you would rather watch this review than read it I have also put together a full video review, you can check that out below or over on YouTube If you would like to help support the site then why not order your copy through our affiliate Element Games and save yourself 20% too? Massive thanks to Games Workshop for sending us a free review copy of the book a little early to review and share with you all. In the new Codex Chaos Space Marines, up for pre order today, you can lead the traitors to new glory with improved profiles, abilities and rules! In our review of Codec Chaos Space Marines we’ll be looking at what’s changed and see how the army can complete in the 9th edition of Warhammer 40k! Under the command of the Warmaster Abaddon, the Chaos Space Marines are a grotesque and twisted reflection of the Adeptus Astartes and ultimately want nothing more than to let the galaxy burn. Waging war for 10,000 years, the forces of Chaos battle their way through the galaxy leaving devastation in their wake.
