Far to the North, beyond the frozen desolation of the Troll Country, is the roiling mass of the Chaos Wastes. The twisted servants of the Chaos gods gravitate here, to this place where normal rules do not apply and rivers are made of blood as often as they are of water.

Warriors of Chaos

If your army includes Archaon, one unit of Chaos Knights that does not have a Mark of Chaos may be upgraded to be the Swords of Chaos. This unit has the Hatred and Immune to Psychology special rules.

The Swords of Chaos

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.
