Most were new characters but aside from new fiends there wasnвЂ™t a replacement for old units and an almost complete lack of mortal options that other chaos gods get. Lack of model variety вЂ“В When the Slaanesh book came out GW released a ton of new models including the long coveted Keeper of Secrets in plastic (With a named variant).Bravery isnвЂ™t an issue вЂ“В This faction is almost all Daemons, meaning they come with the standard Bravery 10.You can adjust to whatever style you play. Flexibility in build options вЂ“ Slaanesh has 3 different subfactions with radically different playstyles.Pain makes you stronger вЂ“ Similar but different to Khorne, dealing or taking wounds (that dont kill) builds up a counter that lets you summon new units in, allowing you to keep the party going.Most Slaanesh units have an absurd number of attacks and can catch opponents off guard. Strong вЂ“В YouвЂ™re not just fast but also strong.In most matchups you will have the advantage in speed and seizing objectives Fast as hell вЂ“В As has already been alluded to a few times by this point, Slaanesh is fast.While your standard units arenвЂ™t bad by any means, your Heroes are where the action happens and youвЂ™ll be using them a lot more than most armies. Your units also have access to some interesting mechanics, such as your greater daemons being able to challenge enemy heroes to a duel, with deadly results. Unlike Khorne, Slaanesh has access to a solid suite of spells that allow their followers to hold their own against other wizards.

While Khorne might defeat his foes with overwhelming strength, Slaanesh prefers death by a thousand cuts, ideally before your opponent gets a chance to strike back. Their units force their enemy to attack last, they have above average movement and a ton of attacks.
