About Chaos Daemons — Lore & How They Play
The Lore
Daemons are not creatures but ideas with teeth: fragments of the four Dark Gods given shape from the stuff of the Warp. Khorne's Bloodletters, Tzeentch's shifting Horrors, Nurgle's cheerfully rotting Plaguebearers and Slaanesh's swift Daemonettes each embody their master's nature — and answer to Greater Daemons that are calamities in person.
Where the veil between worlds grows thin they pour into reality, and the laws of physics file a complaint that is never read.
On the Tabletop
Four armies in a trenchcoat: mono-god forces play wildly differently — Khorne's melee avalanche, Nurgle's resilient creep, Tzeentch's magic and shooting, Slaanesh's speed — or you can mix the pantheon for flexibility. The Shadow of Chaos makes the battlefield itself hostile around your units.
Daemonic saves ignore the usual armour arithmetic, and swingy Warp effects mean no two games feel alike. Bring monsters, bring swarms, and expect the occasional glorious catastrophe.
Chaos Daemons are the Dark Gods made flesh: Bloodletters of Khorne, Plaguebearers of Nurgle, Horrors of Tzeentch and Daemonettes of Slaanesh, pouring out of the warp to tear reality apart. Collect one god's legion or all four, plus greater daemons big enough to anchor any shelf.

Why do these boxes say Age of Sigmar?
The same daemon kits serve both games, so Warhammer 40,000 Chaos Daemons use the Blades of Khorne, Maggotkin, Tzeentch and Slaanesh boxes.
Can daemons join my Chaos Space Marines?
Daemons often fight alongside the Traitor Legions, especially the god-specific ones, so they're a natural way to grow a Chaos collection.
Do I have to pick one Chaos god?
No. You can build a mixed host or theme the army around Khorne, Nurgle, Tzeentch or Slaanesh. Either way, the greater daemons make stunning centrepieces.

Chaos Daemons are entities of the warp made manifest — physical incarnations of the Chaos Gods' power. Each of the four Chaos Gods has their own Daemon units, and players can field them individually or as a combined force.
Yes — you can build a mixed Chaos Daemons army drawing from Khorne, Tzeentch, Nurgle, and Slaanesh, or focus on a single god for stronger keyword synergies.
Yes. Daemons can be built around a single Chaos god or mix all four, with a wide variety of units from swarming lesser daemons to towering Greater Daemons. Every faction has rules for Warhammer 40,000 11th Edition, and new codexes are rolling out through the edition, so check the latest codex for your army before you build a list.
The Combat Patrol: Chaos Daemons is a great starting point. Alternatively, picking a favourite Chaos God and starting with their core troop unit — Bloodletters, Plaguebearers, Pink Horrors, or Daemonettes — is a popular approach.
It depends on your chosen god. Khorne Daemons use red and brass, Nurgle uses greens and browns, Tzeentch uses blues and purples, Slaanesh uses pink and purple. We stock the full Citadel range.
