Chaos Warrior!

The first time that I rolled up a Chaos Warrior in vanilla WHQ I was very excited.

Then I learned that its level progression is random to the point of absurdity, most of the Gifts it can receive are helmets (:shake:), and it was impossible to make the CW particularly good at anything. :(


I like what you've done here with the different alignments - conveying different skills and attribute bonuses. However, I think that Khorne is substantially more powerful than the other alignments at the start at least (maybe not Nurgle, -1 WS is not such a big deal). -1 Toughness for Slaanesh is pretty harsh and all of the negatives for Tzeentch are excessive, I think. Don't they make Tzeentch worse than a standard Wizard?

Khorne doesn't seem to have any down-side....?


Speaking to issues of treasure, I like the idea of 'corrupting' standard magic items. Seems like a good way to mitigate randomness while keeping that 'Realm of Chaos maybe you will get a plasma pistol' sort of 2nd ed WHF feel. I also like the 'Exploiting' suffix. Funny!
