A Chaos Space Marine is a towering warrior, whose brute strength is tempered by inhuman skill. Armed with a fearsome bolter, protected by a suit of power armour and the product of intense training and genetic manipulation, he is far beyond a mortal man, transformed into a lethal, superhuman killing machine. The Chaos Space Marines were once Humanity's ultimate warriors, dedicated to the defence of the Emperor and the Imperium of Man. Having since sworn themselves to the Dark Gods, in exchange for untold power and immortality, they wage war on the very worlds they once fought to protect. Though their noble ideals and goals have been cast aside, their superhuman bodies and military skill remain, leaving them to degenerated into psychotic killers.

A Chaos Space Marine army is an army of the most blood hungry, feared warriors to have walked the void. An army of elite, battle hardened veterans it will often be out numbered, relying on its greater skill and equipment to win the day. The Chaos army list is very flexible, allowing you to create an army suiting a number of playing styles.

In the roiling depths of the Eye of Terror, amidst the shadowy gas clouds of the Maelstrom, upon darkened moons and dead worlds, lie the menacing strongholds and hidden fleets of the Chaos Space Marines. From these lairs, the bloodthirsty hordes of Chaos launch their attacks against the realm of the Emperor. Once proud and majestic warriors armoured with faith and armed with righteousness, the Chaos Space Marines are now bitter, selfish champions of dark, hungry gods, with no cause other than personal ambition and the increase of their power.

Where formerly they cleansed the galaxy with holy bolter and purifying flamer, the Chaos Space Marines are now a vile threat to everything the Emperor strived to build. They are traitorous warlords -- the most loathsome and deadly warriors ever to assail the Imperium. Chaos Space Marines care nothing for loyalty or honour, sacrifice or obligation, for they have bargained away their lives and souls to the Chaos gods, discarding their oaths of allegiance for material power, sensual freedom, and the chance for daemonic immortality.

The Chaos Space Marines are a foe to be greatly feared, for they possess not only the superhuman abilities and devastating weaponry of the Space Marines, but they have also gained power from their unholy pacts with the gods of Chaos and have access to arcane machines and arsenals that go far beyond the knowledge of the Adeptus Mechanicus. Chaos Space Marines consort with the servants of the Chaos Gods, gathering daemonic energy for their sorceries and summoning Daemons to aid them on the battlefield.

For ten thousand years, Traitor Legions and Renegade Chapters have ransacked and razed the worlds of the Emperor, and all knowledge of their slaughter and conquest has been ruthlessly expunged from history by the Inquisition, lest awareness of their existence serve to tempt others to the service of Chaos. For ten millennia, the Long War has raged unseen and unheard by the masses of the Imperium, as loyalists and rebels violently clash over nothing less than the future of Humanity itself.

Across dozens of worlds, as the banners of traitors are held high and the galaxy burns, a single shout of defiance echoes across the Imperium:

DEATH TO THE FALSE EMPEROR!!!
