Overview
This supplement is designed to be used with our campaign systems and allows chaos players the ability
to field Legion armies using special legion lists that used to exist about ten years ago. This list is not
mandatory to use.
This list works alongside the Chaos Space Marine codex and does not replace it. Rather, it augments it.
To use this supplement, your primary detachment must be one of the eight original chaos legions. You
choose your army as normal, but in addition you may field additional rules which are laid out in the
various legion entries below. By choosing to use a legion list, your force cannot mix in cult troops if the
legion chosen does not represent that cult.
For example, World Eaters would not have any Plague Marines or Emperors Children within its ranks,
nor would it have characters or units that have marks other than Khorne.
Some legions have Legion Tactics. These tactics are not mandatory to take but if the player wishes to
use them, they must also follow the Limitations portion as well.
Legionnaires are not required to take the Veteran of the Old War marks unless instructed to, as the
legions must recruit new fighters the same as loyalists do, and not every marine in a chaos legion will be
10,000 years old.
Last, the Black Legion is not included in this supplement due to them having a supplement at the time of
this writing.
Inspiration for this work comes from the old Chaos 3.5 codex as well as the Horus Heresy books as well
as unique rules that were created for the campaign specifically.
If you enjoy these rules, feel free to pass them along to others who may benefit from them as well.

The Alpha Legion
The XX Legion was the last of the original twenty legions. Their
primarch Alpharius believed in attacking from several directions at
once, and the legion was adept at infiltration, subterfuge, sabotage, and
assassination. They tend to operate as raiders deep behind enemy
lines, and make extensive use of chaos cultists to do their bidding and
spread their propaganda.
Special Rules
Alpha Legionary forces will not contain any marks of chaos
within it, they all follow chaos undivided.
An Alpha Legion army must choose one of the following traits
that apply to all units within the detachment (to include
cultists):

o Tank Hunters
o Counter-Attack

If a battle is being fought with secondary objectives, and an Alpha Legion detachment suffers
more units destroyed than their enemy at the end of the game, the enemy scores an additional
+1 victory point.

infiltrators are deadly assassins.

The Iron Warriors
The Iron Warriors, sons of the primarch Peturabo, are the most heavily
armed of the Chaos Legions. They are siege specialists that rely on
blistering salvos of firepower. They place great importance on detailed
fire plans and assembling formidable field fortifications.
Offensively, they are methodical, always seeks ways to grind down their
enemies by attrition until the moment comes where they can be swept
away with a massive counter-attack.
While attacking fortifications, the Iron Warriors will quickly decide at
what point they will actually attack and launch a series of feints to test
the enemy and weaken their real objective.
Special Rules
Iron Warriors forces will not contain any marks of chaos within it,
they all follow chaos undivided.

the Shatter Defenses Warlord Trait, which means that at the beginning of the game one piece of

or Mechatendrils (p.66 C:CSM) for +20 points.

Assault.

The Night Lords
Striking fear into the hearts of their enemies, the Night Lords are
masters of psychological warfare and terror tactics. The catalogue of
atrocities they have committed continue to perpetuate are their way
of sapping their enemies will to resist.
Many enemies have given in without a fight rather than have to face
the wrath of the Night Lords, though none have ever been spared
regardless.
Aggressive patrolling and surprise raids are their signature. They will
patiently win a hundred small battles in order to achieve their
objectives rather than pinning everything on one big battle.
Special Rules
Night Lords armies do not follow any of the chaos gods.
They are composed entirely of unmarked units.
Night Lords troops all have Night Vision
Night Lords specialize in fast raids and may field an
additional Fast Attack choice in return for giving up two
heavy support choices.

character. Models on a bike, demonic in stature, or wearing terminator armor cannot use this
skill
A Talent For Murder - If a unit or units of models from the Night Lords legion outnumber one or
more enemy infantry units during any initiative step in which they fight an assault, they gain +1
to wound. Bulky models count as two models, and very bulky models count as three models for
purposes of working out when the Night Lords outnumber their victims.
Nostraman Blood If a unit falls back it falls back an additional 1. If a unit fails a pinning check,
it may fall back instead of be pinned.
From the Shadows All models in the Night Lords have a cover save of 6+ on the first game
turn, even in open ground. This can be combined with the effects of Stealth, etc as normal but
other forms of cover that provide a higher save supersede it.
Seeds of Dissent If the armys warlord is slain, each of its unit must make an immediate
morale check as if they had just suffered 25% casualties from shooting
Nostraman Chainglave Any character or independent character capable of taking a power
weapon can instead opt to choose this item as part of their option for the same cost. The
chainglaive is melee Str as User +1, AP 3, Melee, Two-Handed, Rending

Word Bearers
The Zealous XVII legion were fanatical devotees of the Imperial Cult. The Word
Bearers took the rejection of the Emperor personally, and they threw in their
zealous worship to the Chaos Gods instead. They do not worship one
particular Chaos God; they worship them all.
The Word Bearers use daemons extensively, and strive to advance through
daemonhood themselves.

unmarked units.

for +30 points. This follows the rules for a Daemon Weapon, counts as a Power Weapon and
thus is AP3 and grants the wearer a 4+ invulnerable save.
Word Bearer Dark Apostles and Chaos Lords may take the Demagogue Ability for +20 points
which allows all friendly units within 12 of them to reroll any failed morale checks.
Possessed Space Marines count as Troops
Any Dark Apostle or Chaos Lord may take the Burning Lore ability for +30 points which upgrades
them into a Level 1 Psyker with access to the Biomancy or Telepathy Disciplines

force gain the Instant Death special rule.

Allies with the exception of Daemons

The World Eaters
The disciples of Khorne, the World Eaters are totally devoted to his murderous ideals. They fight to
heap skulls at the base of their masters throne. Berzerkers live to kill and kill some more, to burn their
enemies and tear their limbs from their bodies.

A World Eaters force is descended from Angrons legion, and these frothing madmen are frenzied hand-
to-hand fighters that are as apt to turn on each other as they are to fight the enemy.

Special Rules
Sacred Number Units that have a model count divisible by eight do not have to pay the cost
for upgrading their unit champion, it is considered free.
Blood Frenzy All models must have the mark of Khorne. While frenzied, the models have +1
Attack and are Fearless. This lasts until the unit is beaten in close combat. Models with the
Blood Frenzy must attempt to charge in the assault phase if they are in range to do so.
Feel No Pain - Blood Frenzy confers the Feel No Pain (6+) special rule
Infantry models with the Blood Frenzy rule must roll a D6 before attempting to shoot in the
shooting phase. If they roll a 1-2 then instead of shooting they will run towards the nearest
enemy instead of shooting. If mounted in a transport, then their frenzy overcomes their abilities
to shoot regardless, though the transport cannot move further.
If victorious in combat, models with the Blood Frenzy must consolidate towards the nearest
enemy
World Eaters forces do not contain any psyker or sorcerers
Destroyers World Eaters vehicles are outfitted with all manner of spikes, scythed wheels, and
slicing blades which tear apart their enemy. If given to a Dreadnought it may re-roll one close
combat miss in each round of combat. If given to a tank, then during tank shock each enemy
forced to move will take a wound on a 4+ with no AP value. This ability costs +25 points
Khornate Chainaxes Khorne Berzerkers in a World Eaters army are armed with Chain Axes.
These axes follow the same rules as in C:CSM, with the exception that the max armor save that
any model may take against these is a 4+ (note that the weapon is AP 4, but reducing an armor
save to 4+ will not therefore make the AP4 negate it, ex: a 3+ save is hit with a chain axe, they
save on a 4+)
Banner of Rage This banner may be used once per battle. It is used in any assault phase. Any
models in the unit gain +1 Attack. +20 points
Rage of Khorne Champions of Khorne (those being unit champions and independent
characters) gain D3 extra attacks when they charge, not just the normal one.
Khorne Berzerkers Count as TROOP CHOICES.

Thousand Sons
The sons of Magnus were explorers of the most mystic and forbidden arts before the Emperor had the
Space Wolves scatter their forces during the Heresy. Magnus pulled his sons to a safe retreat, and from
there the legions mutations began appearing more and more rapidly.

Determined to prevent his brothers from descending into a mutated madness, the chief Librarian
Ahriman cast a powerful ritual over his legion to stop the mutation. The ritual worked very well too
well. Most of the legion was reduced to dust within their power armor save for the strongest of
sorcerers.

Enraged, Magnus exiled his son for casting this ritual against his will but the damage had already been
done. The majority of the legion are now mindless automatons trapped forever in their armor

Blasted Standard Used once per battle in the chaos players shooting phase instead of its
bearer firing its weapon. It has a range of 6 and inflicts 2D6 S6 AP4 hits. +35 points

one randomly. (this still counts as one of the powers that they know) It has a 24 range, S8 AP2
Assault 1 characteristic.

Death Guard
Servants of Nurgle, the Death Guard fight only to spread contagion and death throughout the galaxy.

same cost. The Power Scythe is a melee weapon, +1 Strength, AP 2 with the Unwieldly, Two-

Emperors Children
Once a legion dedicated to perfection in all of its pursuits, the Emperors Children succumbed to the call
of forbidden knowledge. Their drive for perfection was perverted to an obsession with excess, and the
members of this legion will stop at nothing to gratify their basest desires.
Chaos Space Marines of the Emperors Chidlren make war into art; a riot of sound, sight, and sensation.
Doom sirens wail and implements of torture slash as these followers of Slaanesh are driven to further
extremes.
