About this deal
Shortly after launch, a Tome Celestial White Dwarf subfaction was released – Syll’Esske’s own subfaction, which allowed you to double your accumulation of Depravity points. Now players were summoning an extra 2,000+ points to the table. For every Keeper killed, two more would take its place.
Locus of Diversion: The Locus of Diversion has changed, no longer having opponents within 6” fight last but now has a 1” range and prevents Pile-in moves until the next combat phase. This makes it look like a really short range Alopex T-shirt/Net cannon. It doesn’t seem that great at first glance, but given how fragile some heroes and units are, this can definitely help survive prolonged combats with horde units. This is a MASSIVE change – basically, instead of heroes required for all of the work, every unit on the table is a potential Depravity Point waiting to happen on every player turn. And the most anything costs to summon is 12… for 30 Daemonettes or a Keeper of Secrets.Most units whose points changed got more expensive, giving the faction a bit of a nerf points-wise. Depravity Points: Another big rule that was all but guaranteed to change. The general breakdown here is: Target practice: Blissbarb Seeker High-Tempter, Shardspeaker, 2 Blissbarb Seekers, 3 Blissbarb Archers, 1 Blissbrew Homonculus. How to buy a Slaanesh Sybarites Warband No one is more magnificent than the Lord of Hubris and he knows it. This narcissist is enamoured with their own skill and martial prowess. Strutting on to the battlefield they taunt and tease their foes believing no one is worthy of his blade or attention.
Slaves to Impulse (Double, all Slaangors): Perform a bonus move towards the closest enemy as long as it was maximum 6″ away.The Hellscourge does not have access to this ability, but the 3″ range can be useful to outsmart those fighters with 2″ range, meaning he can be even further protected from retaliation. Glutos has glimmering piggish eyes and an overlong tongue slobbers across drool-covered chins. His body is hideously swollen and from it emerge tentacles and other signs of Dark Prince's blessings. [4b] History Age of Sigmar
Although if you want to create an entire ranged warband, you can and you also have astonishing models to use. You can even complement it with a Shardspeaker to protect your core units when engaged. And you cannot leave home without a Blissbrew Homonculus as it increases Strength when using archers’ signature move Volley of Tearing Blades. Slaanesh has been imprisoned since the Age of Myth by the Aelven Pantheon (Tyrion, Teclis, Malerion and Morathi) in the Hidden Gloaming, a sub-realm between Hysh, the realm of Light, and Ulgu, the Realm of Shadow. This 86-part plastic kit makes five Mymidesh Painbringers for use in Warhammer Age of Sigmar. It comes supplied with five 32mm Round Citadel bases. The kit can alternately be built as Symbaresh Twinsouls. Taking up weapons of their own choosing and discarding their helms (the better to draw the Dark Prince’s gaze) they gleefully forgo the mono-obsessive techniques of their blade-cult in favour of displaying their own inventive skills. These egomaniacs constantly compete against one another to perform the most impressive feats in battle, shrieking rhapsodies of self-praise all the while. [1a] Sources The result was complete and utter domination: While you saw the occaisional outliers, Slaanesh armies were holding three of the top 5 spots at almost every major tournament, with the exception of one GT where no Slaanesh armies were played. Again this wasn’t a surprise – the Summoning mechanic was so good that for every Keeper of Secret your opponent killed, you could generate enough Depravity Points to summon another one, or 30 Daemonettes, if you were somehow losing on objectives.

There are still three lores for Hedonites, though only one major change to the Lore of Slaanesh, and both are worth mentioning here. The Infernal Enrapturess lost her +1 Depravity every turn…lame. Fiends on the other hand kept their Disruptive Song ability which gives Wizards within 12” -1 to cast. They also do decent damage and now that non-Hero units can generate Depravity Points, they might see real play. The New Stuff Tips on painting the Hedonites of Slaanesh What changed in the new edition for the Slaanesh Sybarites Dark Revellers? As an added bonus, any wounds Shardslash inflicts cannot be negated, making Sigvald one of the most reliable assassins in the game. Did we mention you’re going to want him in your army? There are some new Battalions as well – the Depraved Carnival is Slaanesh’s “Wytchfire Coven” stolen right from Tzeentch’s playbook (and I GUESS Kunnin’ruk… silly Orruks). It consists of three Lords of Pain or Shardspeakers in any combination plus 3 units of Blissbarb archers and gives you an extra round of shooting for a Blissbarb archers unit each Hero phase.
