Dawn of War Codex

Are there anything worth for us to know? What happened to him? Do modders working on him?

Hi, Slaaneshi Champion here. No sorry, no news from me I'm busy with err... kinky stuff.

The model exists, there is at least a design to have a Slaanesh Champion as subcommander and as a Commander... But it seems there are more important things to Caeltos at the moment.

Do you have any ideas about how it will serve? Like ; CL is for tanky melee, PC is for anti-melee and defence, Sorc is for sneaky play, you know, how it will serve?

Or just put everything you have here

The Commander idea was from Indrid, as a glass cannon speedy commander.

To be honest, it's a bit difficult to give a proper flavour to Slaanesh Champion without being a mix of the rest of the Dark Gods. The only roles I think he could fit is the Indrid Glass Cannon idea and a possible buffer/debuffer one. But I'm not sure if could be a good idea mix the already Chaos high dps with buffs/debuffs except if the Champion itself isn't a powerhouse champion.

2 more questions, then you are free to go

1-) I heard a Slaanehi legion that focues on combat drugs, enzymes, etc... If he is going to have buffs or debuffs, can we hahve them from these drug abilitys from I don't know, Codex?

2-) How nude will be Deamonette models? I have seen one in the forum that uses Banshee skeleton but do you have plans to censor them?

1. Well, I'm not a mod staff member, but an occasional modder Mekboy style. XD My rank is honorary I'm afraid.

Even if is a balance mod, the staff respects too the fluff, so isn't a surprise that abilities, wargears, worship...are going to be inspired in the CSM codex, the Lexicanum, W40K wiki...

2. It exists a Daemonnette model (common, rare and epic ranks even) with textures. I don't remember how nude are the Daemonnettes, but I find a bit ridiculous censure them. I mean, they are fucking Daemons of pleasure and eroticism from the Pleasure God. What fo you expect? Dress them as a nun?

I had been working on him for quite a while, but my PC broke down a little over a week ago now, and I lost all my work on multiple projects, so I have to start from scratch now ... I'll have to go by memory to get back into where I once was. ~~

Oh man, no backups? :/
Reminds me, I should make one for my pc ... but I'm too lazy to do it
Even though I lost everything twice already with my 2 crashes, still haven't learned my lesson XD

Slaanesh units are about speed and flexibility.
They are not necessarily fragile, quite the opposite. They are on average more robust than Khorne ones.

The Slaaneshi units should play a little bit like Eldar, with many different specialist roles, but unlike them the unit itself should have option to change role.

Noise Marines are the epitome of that, in the lore and TT.
They can be set as melee, assault, ranged firepower, tactical control or artillery unit, and they do that pretty well once you set them appropriately (and so-so if you don't).

The idea of a Slaanesh.... Champion.... (i hate that name) is that it should be able to change the role suddenly, by both wargears and abilities, and his power came from taking the adversary by surprise more than strength.

Glass Melee Commander is perfect as the "vanilla set", with maybe 1 set of each equip (weapon, armor, other) to improve that, but then he should be able to switch role.

Maybe he's too fragile for the situation, then buy an Icon of Excess.
Maybe you need ranged firepower, then buy a Twin-Linked Bolter (or Kakophoni gun if you want some sonic weapon)
Maybe you need to face multiple small units and/or need distruption, then buy a Doom Siren.
A sudden Vehicle? Then buy an Eviscerator.
You are not sure what you are going to face, or just want to change rapidly? Then buy Combat Drugs to open for you different effects but with a small duration.

He should be weaker than other heroes in their role, but the simple fact he can abuse the weakness of his enemy and rarely be catch unguarded is his strength.

I feel like given how fluff casts slaaneesh champions, he would act akin to Harlequins/Singing spears council. No joke. ALSO YEEEEES DAEMONETTES, SLAANEESH IS PLEEAAAASED. I vote borderline NSFW models.
