Cultist of Slaanesh (Chaos Warshrine)

Slaanesh's Cultists have tormented souls, and spend their time gathering secrets and seducing others in the Dark Prince's name.

Cults of Slaanesh are secretive covens hidden away in the higher echelons of society. They spread rapidly, as wanton lust always does. Drawn to them are the pleasure-seekers and the depraved, but not all cults are built on lechery. The Dark Prince is also a patron of the arts, and so his followers can be found in artist communes or with those that have a need to hone in on perfection, wherever they might be.

Abilities

  • Giver of Torturous Glory
    Agonising pain is but a thrilling delight for Slaanesh, who revels in inflicting such torture on his foes.
  • Gate of Slaanesh
    The Cultist holds the gate open so alluring Daemonettes can surge through and have at the foe, as if starved of sustenance for an eternity prior.
  • Wounds
    Even the greatest foes can be laid low with terrible injuries, and the greater the damage done, the less able they will be to effectively continue the fray.
    Speed x 90%
    Armour-Piercing Weapon Damage x 80%
    Base Weapon Damage x 80%
  • Favour of the Ruinous Powers
    When the Dark Gods bless the faithful assembled from atop their mighty battle-altars, loyalty is assured forevermore.
    Leadership +10
  • Deadly Onslaught
    Such is the power and ferocity of the champion, that those who stand in his way will falter against the warrior's impact.
    Charge Bonus x 160%
    Armour-Piercing Weapon Damage x 125%
    Base Weapon Damage x 125%
  • Slippery
    Those who are "slippery" cannot be cornered or pinned - they simply "slip" away…
    Speed x 125%
    Melee Defence +24

Strengths & Weaknesses

  • Chaos Warshrine
    The presence of a Chaos Warshrine empowers the leadership of any nearby friendly units.
    Additionally, any entity (friend or foe) that is killed near the Chaos Warshrine increases the intensity of the "Giver of Glory" ability.
  • Soporific Musk
    The attacks of this unit reduce the enemy into a stupor, lowering their ability to attack and defend themselves.
