Hello everyone! Zak Ludick here from Cape Town, South Africa and this is a Warhammer 40k - Datasheet Review post!

What is it all about? It is not there to just give a stat. It is there to give MY review of the unit in the game of Warhammer 40,000

The last of the Indexes! A new challenge!

Right, I am finally ahead and by my best estimations as I explained in this Post, I should be able to keep ahead of the release curve and get the remainder of the Indexes reviewed before those Codex releases.

So I embark on a new challenge. I have calculated that there are roughly 148 reviews to do. I have chosen my frequency and have given myself 96 days to review them all. That means that I am aiming at Day 96 being the 21st of July 2025!

Today is Day 27/96.
I have reviewed 40/148.

Time elapsed: 28.12%
Review Completion: 27.02%
A percentage behind.

Hobby Fund - Working myself into the clear

With my hobby posts, I generate a hobby fund. 50% of the income goes into the fund. At the moment I put all my HBD earned from Warhammer posts into my alt account @zakl.hobbyfund.

I am collecting funds in the following ways:

  • Blogging about Warhammer to earn HBD
  • Accepting donations - Can be sent directly to @zakl.hobbyfund in HBD
  • Selling some of the collection to friends.

At the current count I am paying off some hobby debts. I still have $226 to pay off!

Every bit counts!

Back to the review!

Chaos Daemons, Kairos Fateweaver

10th Edition Index

This is the Epic Hero level hero of a Lord of Change, which I have already reviewed. Kairos has a history and is the only Lord of Change with 2 heads. There is a place in the Warp called the Well of Eternity. Not even Tzeetch knows what is in there so he dropped one of them in and this is what came out! Usually they all die...

This model is 270pts

Let's see what it does!

Stats

Movement 12"
Toughness 10
Save 6+/4++(armor/invul/Feel No Pain)
Wounds 20
Ld 6+
OC 5

Weapons

Standard weapons: Infernal Gateway; Staff of Tomorrow.

Ranged Weapons

Psychic (This weapon has the Psychic Keyword)

Indirect Fire (This weapon canbe fired at enemies that this model cannot see. If this weapon is fired that way, he hits on 4+ and the target gets Benefit of Cover)

Melee Weapons

Staff of Tomorrow

5 Attacks, Hitting on 3+, S8, AP-2 and 2D3 Damage each.
Psychic (This weapon has the Psychic Keyword)

Abilities

Deep Strike - If this unit arrives on the Battlefield from Reserves, it can be set up anywhere on the battlefield more than 9" from enemy models.

Greater Daemon of Tzeentch

Tzeetch Daemons within 6" of this model are considered to be within the army's Shadow of Chaos.

One Head Looks Forward

If this model is on the Battlefield, make a Leadership test, if passed, gain 1 CP.

One Head Looks Back

When the enemy targets a unit with a Stratagem within 12" of this model, increase the CP cost of that Stratagem by 1.

Thoughts

Absolute beast!

A CP Farm as well as a Lord of Deceit in one model! Being able to gain additional CP is great for any army and then being able to disrupt the enemy CP by putting this model near them can add up to becoming a major advantage.

Of course this also makes him a priority target.

That makes 28 Chaos Daemon Datasheets Reviewed putting them on 56% Completed! The total of the remaining Index reviews is now 105.

Thank you for reading!

if he sees the past with one head and the future with the other head does that make him blind during the present?
