A Lord Discordant is obsessed with all things evil and mechanical, being masters of everything Daemonically possessed! Check it out.
While there are no new Chaos Marine releases on the horizon (it’s okay to cry), it doesn’t mean we can’t still love them. Get out your favorite Helstalker steed and let’s learn about some Lord Discordant !
Lord Discordant Taking Stock of Their Enemy
To say these guys are obsessed with Daemon Engines is a gross understatement! They are so entrenched with the machines that they probably know more about them than the Chaos Gods they come from. If they couldn’t have their toys anymore, there’s a chance they would just die from boredom. We can’t imagine what flying on a ship in The Warp for ages must be like with them on board.
When they finally get to a world and spot the enemy, their excitement grows to a fever pitch as they finally get to unleash their beasts on the enemy! They survey the battlefield riding high atop their Helstalker, plotting the best way to destroy the enemy and the fastest way to get into the thick of the fighting. Patience isn’t really a virtue to them, but why should it when you’re riding a giant Daemon Engine made to kill?
Raging into Battle
While they enjoy killing infantry, tanks and enemy armor is what really gets them up in the morning. They bellow such vile war calls that they actually disrupt the enemy Vox systems on the way in, rendering any type of communication useless. This allows the Helstalker to take on some of the biggest Imperial vehicles and walkers down one at a time.
Just the very presence of a Lord Discordant can disrupt all non-Daemon machinery, making the job all the easier and more fun. The Helstalker will literally pounce on top of any armor it finds. Much like a predator of old Terra it enjoys pinning down its prey and working from there. Once they have them there, they will inject viral scrapcode directly into the machine’s circuitry. Rendering it basically useless.
A Warrior Through & Through
While the Helstalker is a fearsome beast, the Lord Discordant himself is no slouch in battle. He lunges atop his steed flailing his Impaler Chainglaive about with only one thought in mind, destroy all non-heretic armor! He can even hear the machine spirit of enemy vehicles and revels in their struggle. His smashing attacks only build their agony and his joy. He takes such joy in his work, even some fellow Chaos followers are shocked!
