Army rules

What every Chaos Knights army brings to the table, whichever detachment it is built on.

4 rules

Harbingers of Dread

If your Army Faction is CHAOS KNIGHTS, each unit from your army with this ability gains Dread abilities, depending which are active for your army (see below). The Deathly Terror ability is active for your army from the start of the battle. In addition, at the start of the first, third and fifth battle rounds, you can either select one of the other Dread abilities or randomly select two Dread abilities to apply by rolling two D6 and applying the results rolled, from those numbered 1-6.
Any Dread abilities that have been selected are active until the end of the battle. You cannot select the same Dread ability more than once, and any duplicated Dread abilities (as a result of randomly selecting them) have no additional effect.
DEATHLY TERROR (AURA) N/A While an enemy unit is within 9" of this model, worsen the Leadership characteristic of models in that unit by 1. DESPAIR (AURA) [1] While an enemy unit is within 9" of this model, worsen the Leadership characteristic of models in that unit by 1. This is cumulative with the Deathly Terror ability (see above). DOOM [2] Each time this model makes an attack, if the target of that attack is Battle-shocked, add 1 to the Wound roll. DARKNESS [3] This model has Stealth. DISMAY (AURA) [4] In the Battle-shock step of your opponent’s Command phase, for each enemy unit that is below its Starting Strength and within 9" of this model, that enemy unit must take a Battle-shock test. DELIRIUM (AURA) [5] While an enemy unit that is Below Half-strength is within 9" of this model, each time that unit fails a Battle-shock test, it suffers D3 mortal wounds.
DOMINION [6] Add 3" to the range of this model’s Aura abilities.

Super-heavy Walker

Each time a model with this ability makes a Normal, Advance or Fall Back move, it can move through models (excluding TITANIC models) and sections of terrain features that are 4" or less in height. When doing so:
▪ It can move within Engagement Range of enemy models, but cannot end that move within Engagement Range of them.
▪ It can also move through sections of terrain features that are more than 4" in height, but if it does, after it has moved, roll one D6: on a 1, that model is Battle-shocked.

Detachments

Each detachment's own rules, then the stratagems it unlocks.

Bastions of Tyranny

3 stratagems

Annihilate the Unworthy

The withering arsenal of cursed weaponry available to a Knight Tyrant is turned with the cruellest focus upon those its scion despises for their weakness of spirit.

Friendly KNIGHT TYRANT units’ attacks that target a battle-shocked unit have +1 to the hit roll.
1 CPEither turn

INTIMIDATING REMINDER

Helhunt Lance

6 stratagems

Masters of the Pack

If a Titanic Chaos Knights unit from your army has an Aura ability that affects friendly WAR DOG units, while two or more friendly WAR DOG models are within range of that TITANIC CHAOS KNIGHTS unit’s Aura ability, that TITANIC CHAOS KNIGHTS unit is affected by that Aura ability as well.
Example: Two friendly WAR DOG models are within 9" of a Knight Desecrator when it is selected to shoot. As a result, the KNIGHT DESECRATOR ’s Taskmaster ability also affects itself, even though it does not have the WAR DOG keyword, so each time that KNIGHT DESECRATOR makes a ranged attack, Hit rolls of 1 are re-rolled.

While a unit is Empowered it can use one of the Malefic Surge abilities below. Once that unit has used a Malefic Surge ability, it is no longer Empowered.
