Chaos Warrior Rumors...
Just saw this on another site...some recent Chaos Warrior rumors for those of you itching to get rid of the PDF "get you by" list.
From:
Rumor Site
Rules:
- Army wide re-roll panic
- Mark of Khorne causes Frenzy, has different effect for Giant
- Mark of Nurgle causes -1 penalty to the WS or BS of a model attacking
- Mark of Slaanesh benefits the unit with Itp, also gives ASF to characters and rare choices
- Mark of Tzeentch gives +1 to ward save (6+ ward to models without one), also +1 to cast for sorcerers
- May be other effects for different units but if there are, they are currently unknown
- Gaze of the Gods table, roll 2D6 for the following:
- Characters roll every time they win a challenge
- Chosen roll once at the start of the game
- Trolls roll every time they successfully regenerate two or more wounds at once
- 2 on the table causes stupidity, 7 does nothing, 11 makes unit fear causing, 12 allows you to roll twice more and take both benefits. The remainder of results are various benefits such as hatred, +1S, +1T, +1M

Re: Chaos Warrior Rumors...
If GW follows in the same direction, you can bet they'll be a tough army to beat, and everyone's new darling.
Hell, maybe I'll start collecting them.

Re: Chaos Warrior Rumors...
It would be interesting indeed if they used that rolling for a chaos gift thing. In the 2nd edition of the boardgame of Talisman, the Warrior of Chaos would roll for a gift of chaos everytime he took a life from an opponent.

Re: Chaos Warrior Rumors...
Hmm... they look interesting. I imagine they'll be tough, but then again Chaos has always been tough to beat. They don't seem as ridiculous as the VCs though, more along the lines of the Dark Elves though they seem pretty tough too.
