Chaos Army...

So I got curious about the chaos army and looked them up. Judging by the concept art, only the zealots and magus have female characters options. Not that Id like to play a hulking marauder. hehe

Arent there any demonic like races? There should be. >.>

    Fantasy Races of Warhammer ~ check here for any demonic ones....I thought there was one, but could be wrong!  As for female avatars, yeah I think thats accurate, and I believe Greenskins don't have a female option.

    There are no deamons in the Chaos army for the same reason they are no beastmen. The Warhammer Chaos army is divided intro 3 parts.

    1) Hordes of Chaos. Composed of  Chaos worshipping humans

    2) Beast of Chaos. Formed mainly by the uncountable Beatmen of Chaos and assorted mutants, and finally

    3) Daemons of Chaos. Which encompasses the legions of the Chaos gods.

    Now the game is focusing entirely on the Hordes of Chaos as a counterweight to the humanity of the Empire, as Paul Barnett said, the Hordes of Chaos represent a dark mirror of the excesses of human nature.

    As expansions come out, at one point, they most likely will release the Beasts of Chaos as a playable race to counter the Wood Elves, but as for the Daemons I highly doubt it, as they are not able to exist too long outside of the Chaos controlled areas.

    I still think the whole orcs/goblins spawning like shrooms is hilarious. If they are supposed to be asexual, they should have a less of a masculine appearance then. >.>

    Well we have been told a lot that there will be female chosen before release.., but I haven't seen anything to back this up.

    Not sure I want to see a female chosen....

        No "actual" demonic races, no.

     

       But Chaos are really involved with demons. Chaos is about changing, so Chaos characters have demonic mutations. I mean look, the marauder class revolves around it. But expect to see demons walking the streets freely in the Inevitable City. I actually think there's a 40-ft Bloodthirster in the center of town. But Chaos PCs will be mostly pale-looking mortals with a penchant for skulls and feathers. And yes, currently only Zealots and Magus can be female out of the Chaos classes.

     

       Whereas with Dark Elves, they're all able to be female. But they're not so much into demons as they are into just killing things. That's what they're all about. Sharp blades, shadow magic, big pikes, anything that makes them better at killing, they like it. They're basically a race of sadists. They like pleasure, and they get it mostly from killing and humiliation. Not necessarily demonic (they don't worship demons, only Khaine, the God of Murder), but they are possibly the meanest, ruthless, and most evil nasty bastards in the Warhammer world.

     

        Hope that helps you out somewhat.

    I think deamons are going to like dogs of war for the chaos army. On the table top games, only races like orks and skaven could have dogs of war (meaning giants and men-for-higher). But the Devs have told us that ever race will have some sort of dogs of war. Perhaps the DoW for chaos will be a greater deamon, or a blood therster.

    The BloodThirster IS the Greater Deamon of Khorne!

     

    But all the Greater Deamons are in there, but we don;t know what part they will play, but screenshots of all of them have been seen

     

    And for info, the Hordes of Chaos army list can take a Chaos Giant as a Dogs of War unit too
