The Slaves to Darkness are champions clad in hellforged armour, fearsome chieftains, and cabalistic sorcerers who lead daemons, monsters, and madmen into battle under the banner of Archaon the Everchosen. Their ranks are swollen by those who turned to the Dark Gods during the Age of Chaos to survive – traitorous murderers all – and each walks the precarious Path to Glory.
Chaos Battletome: Slaves to Darkness is crucial for collectors and gamers – regardless of which ruinous power they favour. This essential tome is positively seething with inspiring artwork, loads of background material, stunning photography, and the rules you need to unleash your barbaric hordes on the battlefields of the Mortal Realms. You’ll find warscrolls, Regiments and Armies of Renown, Path to Glory and Anvil of Apotheosis rules, plus a self-contained Spearhead section to help get you up and running faster. No matter how you like to play or paint Slaves to Darkness, this book is for you.
