Warriors of Chaos released!!

[archaon1]

Thank you all for your hard work. I had downloaded the editing software but was still a ways away from having anything so I was pleasantly surprised to see this was out. I see there are some things that have been caught. I noticed a little thing - Chaos Hounds are missing options for poisoned attacks and scaly skin. Thanks again - TB

Thanks!!

Another discovery: Mark of Nurgle adds 'Causes Fear', as in the old armybook.

That may be because you gave him a Mark of Nurgle. In actuality, he should just cause Terror.

Found another-- Juggernaut of Khorne does not add +3 to its riders armor save.

Khornate Lord of Chaos w/Shield is +3, with Juggernaut should be +0.

- BSB may not be General
- Chaos Sorcerers (and Sorcerer Lords) can use Magical Shields
- Book of Secrets does not grant access to Arcane Items

There are also a number of other issues with the file.
- other Items are incorrectly priced (Not just Book of Secrets)
- Marks do not restrict (most) items any more
- Scyla has Magic Resistance (3)
- Marks on Chariot must match character using it as a Mount

I've changed the item costs for myself, but I have no idea how to make the other changes

Great job! Thank you so much. Here is another error I noticed:

-The Crimson Armour of Dargan is listed as 20 points, should be 40.

[Jaradakar]

-Chaos Knights Standard Bearer should be able to get the magic banner up to 50 points (Can't currently)

-Currently many of the banners can not be taken with out specific marks of chaos.

-Chosen Champion can take magic weapons up to 25 point cost (Can't currently).

-Chosen Standard Bearer can have a magic standard up to 50 points cost (Can't currently).

-Chosen, if given Halberds or great swords (2 handed weapons) there armor save is not adjusted accordingly.

-(Using the Archaon1 file) If I give a Chosen champion a Sword of Might, his save is lowered, even though it's a one handed weapon.

-Warrior Familiar should have ChaosStuff.Sorcerer (only taken by a Sorcerer)

-Chaos Ruin Shield does not alter a characters Save (just states it has a +6 save).

-Also noted that the Staff of Sorcery does not add a dispel dice to the roster (it has the description of +1 Dispel dice, just does not actually add it), not really a WoC specific issue, but thought I'd point it out.

Chaos Knights can take the Blasted Standard if given the Mark of Tzeentch. Of course, Mark restrictions are largely gone from the new book.

The Book of Secrets DOES grant access to Arcane Items; it has in the past, and the FAQ rather specifically states the character becomes a Wizard. This is therefore fine in AB, aside from the (already-stated) point cost error.

Of very minor importance: Beasts of Chaos can't be selected as allies for Legendary Battles.

Errors I'm seeing.

Not having the ability for my exalted hero to become a BSB
Throwing Axes for Marauder Horsemen are 2 points each not 1 point.
Chaos Warhounds have upgrade options available that are not usable

Those were the ones I saw that were different than others posts in the thread.

Found another-- duplicate Gifts of the Gods are not marked as errors in the army list.

Also, looks like most of the magic banners are missing-- Banner of the Gods, Doom Totem, Blasted Standard, Banner of Rage & Festering Shroud.
