Daemonkin of Malice 9.

1 1/23
Codex Heretic Astartes: Chaos Space Marines
This opus is based on Codex Heretic Astartes: Chaos Space Marines, which you will need to use this Kill Team as the
profiles and point costs for many abilities and pieces of wargear are found within it. Point costs are intended for
each model WITHOUT the equipment listed. The price of the wargear must be added to each model when
calculating cost. Remember to always use the most recent rules updates from Chapter Approved!

FACTION KEYWORDS
All models in this list have the CHAOS, MALICE and <WARBAND> keywords. The <WARBAND> keyword works in the same
way as all keywords that are highlighted in brackets.
THE CANT OF MALICE
As long as the number of models in your Kill Team currently on the battlefield is exactly 11, all models in your Kill
Team gain a 3+ invulnerable save.

MODEL AVAILABILITY
You must adhere to the following model requirements when building your Kill Team:
 1 Team Leader model
 1-20 Core models
 0-3 Special models

ABILITIES
The following abilities are common to several Daemonkin of Malice units:
Children of Destruction
You can re-roll failed hit and wound rolls of 1 for a model with this special rule when targeting a KHORNE, TZEENTCH,
NURGLE or SLAANESH model in the Fight phase.
Endless Droning
Enemy models must substract 1 from their Leadership characteristic for each unit with this ability within 3” of them
(to a maximum of -3).
Daemonic Ritual (amended)
Instead of moving in the Movement phase, a Daemonkin of Malice team leader may attempt to summon a Daemon
onto the battlefield. When doing so, roll a D6 and add the result to the number of the current Battle Round. If the
total exceeds the Ritual Value of the daemon you're attempting to summon, the ritual is succesful. A roll of a 1
always fails.
Place the summoned daemon within 12” of your Team Leader and more than 9” away from enemy models; it may
not move this turn but may otherwise act normally.
You do not need to pay reinforcement points for these daemons. When playing in a campaign, models summoned in
this way do not remain in your Kill Team after the battle ends. You do not pay Reinforcement points for these
Daemons and they are are ignored for the purpose of Rout tests. Do not add them to your roster for campaign play.
Daemonkin of Malice warbands can summon the following daemons:
 Hook Horror – Ritual Value 6
 Chaos Fury – Ritual Value 8

WARGEAR LIST
Daemonkin of Malice Kill Teams use the wargear lists found inside Codex Heretic Astartes: Chaos Space Marines.
