Hi - been out the hobby for years in all ways, gaming, painting, fluff - the works.

I got into the Horus Heresy novels a while back and it started the old thinking again about getting back involved in the hobby. I'm wondering having just read Angels of Darkness by Gav Thorpe about The Fallen as a small warband potentially. Just something to get me started again while I work out where I want to go next. Are there any rules for using them anywhere? I seem to hazily remember something in the second edition Chaos Codex but I may be imagining it. I'm happy to track stuff down on ebay but just curious if anyone can point me in the right direction.

Thanks!

Not any more, Cypher is just a fancy model for a chaos lord nowadays. You can still make a fallen warband with the chaos dex but there's no special characters or rules for them except "Veterans of The Long War" which is an upgrade most units can take nowadays
