Daemons are not politically correct...

...and neither am I. Don't get me wrong, I am not a bigot or any kind of phobic but a large section of humour is based on the misfortune of others. I like comedy. That is all that I can think of when Binx whips out an army from the Chaos Daemon Codex. For you to get the best out of this codex you have to have a sense of humour, the kind that relishes in the discomfort and misfortune of others. There is so much I want to say about the new Chaos Daemon Codex but I know I'll offend someone. My sister describes me as having the 'Doc Martin' brand of diplomacy and you'll never know how hard this has been to write without resorting to type. The fact of the matter is the Chaos Daemon Codex has been written specifically to offend me. I haven't even played against it yet but I've witnessed two horrific games at close quarters. Cortez gave it a good go two games on the trot with his Eldar and Daemon Hunters respectively. His second game was hard fought but ultimately a doomed enterprise. Our hope now resides with Tomarse as he pits the second Daemon Hunters army to banish this codex.

BS4 & unprecedented success on the dice rolls could not save the day!




It was proxy hell too. They are all Slaaneshi daemons. Apparently

  1. That bloodthirster looks dashed upset! He's tee-ed off into the pond and is going to have to drop a shot!

  2. Oh and it was only one GOOD go for Cortez. That Eldar list would've been beaten by Grot conscripts!

  3. Well I all I can say is I am up for a 3rd go at the Daemons even with all the proxy. This game was a little more fun but not haveing anything that can take out a soulgrinder didn't help matters. A few lessons have had to be learnt over the previous 2 games and with just a little thought I think I could get a draw or even a slight win. As for the eldar getting beaten by grot's Mr Lordybloke, if you think grots are that good bring it on!!!
