Without warning, the fickle tides of Chaos vomit forth a daemon host to spill down from the Chaos Wastes and ravage the mortal realms. All fear them, and rightly so.

Daemons of Chaos

Most Daemons (even Chariots) are bound to one of the Chaos Gods. Only Daemonic characters can join units of Daemons. Furthermore, Daemonic characters can only join units that are solely composed of Daemons with the same allegiance as themselves. In addition, Daemons receive no benefit from the Inspiring Presence or Hold Your Ground! special rules, unless both they and the model with those rules are Daemons of the same allegiance. 

Daemonic Alignment

A Warhammer battle is packed with fantastic creatures and skilled warriors whose abilities are so incredible and varied that the basic rules cannot possibly cover them all. For such circumstances we have special rules – uncommon rules to govern uncommon circumstances. When a creature has an ability that breaks or bends one of the main game rules, it is often represented by a special rule. A special rule can boost a model's chances of causing damage, such as by granting poisoned weapons, or enhance its Strength. Alternatively, a special rule can improve a model's survivability, by granting it a better armour save or the ability to regrow damaged flesh. It is through the use of the special rules that Dragons breathe fire, Assassins strike with lightning speed and Giants cause bowel-loosening terror in their enemies.
