Total War Warhammer/Tactics/Daemons of Chaos
This is the general tactics page on how to play Daemons of Chaos in Total War: WARHAMMER.
Why Play Daemons of Chaos?
Pros
- You're really loyal to the 8th edition army book
- You really like playing dress up with your lord
- When you want to play as "Chaos" you you want your army to look like multicolored vomit from beyond the ken of man
- You're still hoping Bel'akor is playable
Cons
Universal Traits
- Daemonic: Undead with extra steps, really. Once your daemonic units lose enough leadership, they'll begin to lose health and fade back into the Warp in the same vein that undead units crumble away. The good news is that even if your daemons are doomed to evaporate, they'll at least stick in and fight to the last model.
- Reign of Chaos: As your lord deals damage a meter on the right hand side of the screen fills up, unlocking three different abilities at three tiers. This meter can fill up more than once, meaning that as long as you keep dealing damage you can unlock these abilities pretty much endlessly. Unlike the other Chaos God factions, who have three set tiers of abilities, your army abilities randomly select from the army abilities of the other four Chaos Gods. You never know exactly what you'll get, only that it will be one of the four abilities for that tier.
