A Core Force for Chaos Armies

Veterans of the Long War are relentless warriors driven by centuries of hatred toward the Imperium. This battleforce reflects that relentless aggression, combining durable infantry, devastating elite units, and a terrifying war engine in the form of the Helbrute.

Chaos Space Marines provide the backbone of the army with flexible weapon options, while Chaos Terminators deliver elite durability and close-range lethality. The Chaos Lord commands the force with brutal efficiency, and the Helbrute adds crushing firepower and monstrous strength. Supporting them are Chaos Cultists, expendable followers eager to die in service to their dark masters.

Together, these units create a balanced and aggressive force capable of dominating objectives, overwhelming enemies in melee, and unleashing destructive firepower across the battlefield.
