So lets sum up.

1) No Marks or any statline benefits
2) No access to a majority of wargear options
3) Not EW
4) Not a Champion of Chaos so no Boons Table rolling
5) Not even T6 like nearly every other MC in the game

At 145 points base the Daemon Princes can jolly well stay in the Warp until 7th edition. Shore leave shall only occur when one of my gribbly Champions rolls a 65 or 66


Or as happened to me, you'll lose your Sorcerer because he got the Prince upgrade in the middle of a crowded battle with orks and he'll die due to not being able to be placed.

In Boxing matches, you actually get paid to take a dive and make the other guy look good.

In Warhammer 40K, you're expected to pay cash out of your pocket for the privilege of having Marines and IG trample all over your Xenos/Chaos.

Ah true, oh well he was too many points anyway. Guess I will just take Kharn and 20 CSM with MOK/IOK and infiltrate them next to something juicy.

Also note that Huron doesn't allow any unit to Outflank.

1) Huron allows d3 units to Infiltrate.
2) Units with the Infiltrate special rule can Outflank.
3) Since Huron doesn't confer the rule, only allows them to Infiltrate, they don't have Outflank.

Or, I could be completely wrong...

How does "Nominate D3 infantry units in your army before deployment. Those units gain the infiltrate special rule." only allow them to infiltrate? If they have the infiltrate special rule and are in a dedicated transport they can outflank.

Because I keep reading the wrong part of the codex. Reference sections are sometimes a bad thing.

What about spawning a prince with no mark?

An unmarked champ wins a challenge and gets dark apotheosis. Just an unmarked prince now I suppose.

Also I'll be pissed when I roll spawnhood on abby

Hoo boy, did this thread get derailed.

To answer the original question, this is now in the FAQ - the Axe of Blind Fury can now be taken by "Daemons of Khorne" as well.

Super Readn is correct the Axe of Blind Fury can now be taken by "Daemons of Khorne"

Even though Daemons of Khorne have no mark.

Well yeah! Of course it is, because you most likely ALREADY own the Demon Prince....but you have to buy the shiny new super toys. Look at the defiler, increased points cost in what is probably the most clogged section of the book, why....because people already own them so why keep them as a "good" choice? Make them worse or at least not as good as the other choices and people buy models. This goes along with the zombie argument, if anyone lacked true common sense to understand you could increase their size, look at it from this aspect, would GW really restrict you to putting (i.e. buying) 30 zombies when they could sell you 300? Come on......

Let a billion souls burn in death than for one soul to bend knee to a false Emperor.....

I'd argue that being a Slaanesh Daemon brings more benefit to the Prince than a plain Mark would - but the others are all inferior. Perhaps it was seen as too powerful to give a Daemon Prince +1T, perhaps it was to avoid any word debates with trying to apply the Tzeentch +1 Save to zooming FMCs. I do know there is one rule that wouldn't work without the Daemon wording, though - the hatred for other Daemons. This covers not just the Princes, but sizable chunks of the Daemon codex as well.

Do FMC get a jink or is that just flying vehicles?

To be exact, FMC can Dive, which gives them Jink. But that means FMC can only make Snapshot until the end of its next turn.

Plus a flying s4 ap3 torrent soul blaze template isn't bad either.
