Chaos Space Marines - Doctrines and Units

Faction Task/s:

  • Destroy enemy zone morale

  • Defeat units by only using vulnerable or damaged armies (that have less than a certain amount of HP)

  • Conquer and destroy enemy headquarter locations

Pactbound Doctrine Path:

Buffs:

  • Units retain more combat efficiency when they are low on hitpoints (fighting on relentlessly even when near death)

  • Units are harder to kill off when they are combined with units of the same type in the same army (units rather take hitpoint damage instead of units being killed off early)

  • More damage vs. buildings

  • More damage vs. zone morale

Playstyle:

Units of the Pactbound Doctrine consist mainly of ranged attackers and units that inflict collateral damage. This Doctrine focuses on spreading fear and destruction in Zones. Units gain an additional damage bonus against structures and inflict even more morale damage. Additionally, units are more reckless in combat and remain effective even when being heavily damaged.

Malefic Host Doctrine Path:

Buffs:

  • Units deal more damage when attacking

  • Units move quicker on enemy territory

Playstyle:

Units of the Malefic Host Doctrine consist mainly of offensive units. This Doctrine focuses on aggressive expansion. Units gain an additional damage bonus while on offense, and they move quicker on enemy territory, allowing them to blitz deep into enemy Zones.
