Wrath of Khorne

At the start of the battle round, after activating Blessings of Khorne, you can select one or more models from your army from those listed below (including models that are embarked within TRANSPORTS):

  • WORLD EATERS CHARACTER (excluding EPIC HEROES)
  • Eightbound Champion
  • Exalted Eightbound Champion
  • Khorne Berzerker Champion
  • World Eaters Terminator Champion

You can select the same type of model multiple times. The maximum number of models you can select depends on the battle size, as follows:

Incursion: 2 Models Strike Force: 3 Models Onslaught: 4 Models

Until the end of the battle round, each of those models has the VESSEL OF WRATH keyword (we recommend marking such models with a suitable token). Then, select one Blessing of Khorne that is not currently active for your army. Until the end of the battle round, that Blessing of Khorne is active for VESSEL OF WRATH units from your army in addition to any others that are active for your army
