CLASH OF CHAOS: Slaaneshi Warband Army List

"Enter the Realm of Chaos, your nightmare has just begun,

As you wake up, screaming, there's nowhere left to run."

After what seems like an age, we return the Realm of Chaos. After concentrating on Orcs and Goblins and the Undead for some months, its nice to pick up the brush once more and continue work with my favourite range. I have also dug out my copy of Realm of Chaos by Bolt Thrower recently and have been blasting it out of my meagre speakers as I drive around Braintree

However, painting (or thrash metal) is not the purpose of this post. As you may know, over the last year I have been taking part in a loose campaign using Slaves to Darkness warbands. The forces of Khorne, Slannesh and Nurgle have been struggling over territory in the Drakwald Forest. The paperwork is considerable and I felt it appropriate to type it up on my blog to keep it safe (I keep loosing the damn things!) as well as sharing it with fellow bloggers (hopefully inspiring others to give Realm of Chaos a go...)

This first post will detail my army, the Slannesh Warband of Slakesin the Fondler, as it was just before its clash against Khorne.

"Mutated creatures around you stare,

At your limbs, they now tear,

Its too late now to say a prayer,

For your gods, have no care."

The first thing you will probably notice is that EVERY miniature in the game has their own profile. There are several reasons for this; firstly, this allows the possibility of every model fighting on the table on its own, whilst making reference to their weapons; secondly, any rewards can be passed directly to them (as can attributes). We don't always use the single profile, as we quite often use 'average' stats to make more complex melees more simple to execute.

Welcome incursions of chaos, 

You know you cannot resist

To serve, worship, obey them,

Is the only way to exist.

I shall have to leave you once more. I will shortly be publishing the Khorne Armylist and then intend to write a detailed battle report about this week's action. Before I do depart though, I shall leave you with the classic 'Realm of Chaos' Track by Bolt Thrower... Its heavy, brutal, thrashing grindcore and its what Khorne would listen too on his ipod - though probably not Slaanesh, he'd/she'd prefer Madonna I expect!

Orlygg.
