> I do agree that the Chaos player must be forced to play their cards.

---> I dont play chaos, just fought them twice and lost both times. From
this little experience I would say that to sit on the cards and use them
only to save the deamons is unwise. If my oponent had not used his cards, I
would probably have won both times.

---> Hmm..... This is a major change, it would certainly weaken the deamon a
great deal. Im not sure this is the way to go, what does the rest of you
say?

--->This sound good. I dont think it will have much impact on the game
though, at least not in our grop as the chaosplayer is qiute generous with
his cards :-)

---> I thought this rule already existed. If not, then YEAS, YEAS, by all
means!

> 4. If a Chaos dameon/primarch is killed the Chaos player should lose a
crad.

---> I dont quite understand how you are going to practise this rule. As
long as the chaosplayer has one card left, he can and will use it to save
his deamon. You are now offering him the choice of loosing the deamon and a
card or loosing a card and keep the deamon?

---> Now just one last question: Is the chaosplayer allowed to play cards on
his deamon to boost its strength like increasing the CAF and so on? If he
is, then we could deny him this opportunity. This wil not have a great
impact on the game but limit the strength of the cards to some degree.

On the whole, Im a little reluctant to alter thing to much on the chaos
list. This is one of the original armylists and belive it or not, I have
some kind of faith in the gamedesigners at GW.
