Games Workshop just let the Daemonic cat out of the bag about how Tzeentch Horrors will work now. Checkout the latest on these little guys.
First it was the Tzaangors porting over to 40k from Age of Sigmar, and now it looks like the Brimstone Horrors will literally be coming in hot to 40k
GW teased this on the little guys:
“Tzeentch’s Horrors get a rules update: Pink Horrors can now split into two Blue Horrors upon their death. And Blue Horrors can then further split into Brimstone Horrors when they die. Both Blue Horrors and Brimstone Horrors are available to include in your forces, both as units in their own right, or to represent splintered Pink Horrors.
…the warp-spawned warriors of change also gain a new Detachment, the Daemon Legion of Tzeentch – comprising multiple formations of Daemons and granting extra bonuses for dedicating your force solely to Tzeentch. The Formations also gives you a bunch of easy ways to add small contingents of Tzeentchian Daemons to another force, like, oh we don’t know… the Thousand Sons!”
Back in the old days of 40k you would indeed split a pink horror into two blue horrors if it died, but never down to smaller components in game. We first saw that in the Silver Tower game this summer.
Well looks like there will be a ton more book-keeping coming to the table top very soon for both Warp Charges and the incredible Daemonic Nesting Dolls.
