As the title suggests, let Daemon Princes of Khorne pitch a prayer from the Dark Apostle table as compensation for not being psykers. 1 prayer and an extra attack sounds like a fair trade for one psychic power and a deny.

I guess.
Just one issue, what if the player picks the additional strength and plays smash dp?

Players: "why?!? Now we finally got decent plastic kits and you cut them?"
Chaos marines players: "Since when are Daemonengines 30k models and why do i have NO droppods now?"
GW" MONEY.... erm i meant TOO MANY OPTIONS (to resell your army to you again by disalowing former units)! Do you want specific tyranid fighiting Primaris? Even a new sabotage lieutnant!"

Or they could just get 2-3 attacks as a bonus. Chanting a prayer to get an advantage in battle is basically the same as Psykers giving themselves a bonus and Khorne don't like that. YES I do realize there is a specific Khorne prayer but I don't see a Prince doing that.

I was just tossing this idea around earlier today. I think it's a good idea, assuming the Daemon Prince is locked into Wrathful Entreaty.

Then the DP smashes stuff.

Why? The psyke Princes aren't locked into their unique power; why should Khorne be worse?

Because Khorne DP are better at punching things

Exactly. So why not just make him punchier? 2 attacks as a bonus or even 3 would go a long way to making him a slightly more attractive choice outside just relics

Yes, but the tradeoff just is not worth it at one attack. Sure, we could just up the attack bonus, but that makes Khorne Princes rather bland. They're literally just "point at enemy" beatsticks, they'd be a lot more interesting if they could actually do something other than just punch people in the face. Khorne is more than just running at people while screaming.
