INTRODUCTION Amongst the Imperial forces prosecuting the

Crusade to reclaim the Sabbat Worlds from

the forces of the Archenemy, few names

conjure such dread as the Blood Pact.

Comprising disciplined, well-trained cult

soldiers with a fanatical devotion to their fell

warlord Urlock Gaur, the Blood Pact is a

formidable military force, clad in ragged

uniforms dyed in the blood of countless

sacrificial victims, their features hidden by

hideous iron Grotesk masks and equipped

with weapons and vehicles from captured

forge worlds including Urdesh and Neffethyl.

Initial Imperial estimates placed the Pact at

approximately three quarters of a million

warriors, each personally inducted into the

cult by the Gaur himself. Since Urlock Gaur

triumphed in the bloody infighting amongst

the various chaos warlords in the wake of the

death of Archon Nadzybar and ascended to

command the entire Archenemy force

occupying the Sabbat Worlds, the Blood Pact’s

numbers have expanded exponentially as the

other Chaos Magisters were forced to submit

to the Gaur along with their followers. Now

numbering millions, the Blood Pact have

exacted a bloody toll on the Imperial forces

on such worlds as Phantine, Herodor, Ancreon

Sextus and Morlond.

ABILITIES The following abilities are common to several BLOOD PACT units.

VOICE OF COMMAND

This unit may issue one order per turn to the soldiers under their command at the start of their Shooting

phase. Orders may only be issued to BLOOD PACT INFANTRY units within 6" of this unit. To issue an order, pick

a target unit and choose which order you wish to issue from the table below. A unit may only be affected by

one order per turn.

BLOOD PACT ORDERS

ORDER EFFECT

Forward for the Gaur! With the correct motivation, Heretic Militarum soldiers can march at full pace without eschewing their duty to fire upon their enemy. The ordered unit can shoot and charge this turn even if it Advanced in its Movement phase.

Pour it on! By sheer weight of fire, the mortal soldiers of the Heretic Militarum can annihilate whole armies of enemies. A good officer is quick to take advantage of this. All lasguns and all autoguns in the ordered unit change their Type to Rapid Fire 2 until the end of the phase.

Blood for the Blood God! The officer’s blasphemous exhortations encourage their troops no new heights of ferocity. This order can only be issued to units that are within 1" of an enemy unit. The ordered unit immediately fights as if it were the Fight phase.

Leave none alive! The officer orders that a specific enemy unit be massacred without mercy. If the ordered unit inflicts any casualties on an enemy INFANTRY unit in this shooting phase, it may immediately fire again at the same target. It may not split fire between different target units with its shooting this phase.

Death to cowards! There can be no retreat under the watchful eyes of the officers of the Blood Pact. Inflict a mortal wound on the ordered unit. It can shoot and charge this turn even if it fell back in its movement phase.



Tear them apart! The officer incites his troops to an orgy of bloodletting. The ordered unit can reroll failed hit rolls in the fight phase if it charges this turn.

DAEMONIC RITUAL

Through dark pacts and blasphemous rituals, a champion of Chaos weaken the fabric of reality, a gateway to

the warp through which Daemonic allies can pour through to rend and tear the enemies of the Dark Gods.

Instead of moving in their Movement phase, any BLOOD PACT CHARACTER or GOREMAGE COVEN can, at the

end of their Movement phase, attempt to summon a KHORNE DAEMON unit with this ability by performing a

Daemonic Ritual (the character cannot do so if they arrived as reinforcements this turn, or if they themselves

have been summoned to the battlefield this turn).

Roll up to 3 dice – this is your summoning roll. You can summon one new KHORNE DAEMON unit with the

Daemonic Ritual ability to the battlefield that has a Power Rating equal to or less than the total result.

This unit is treated as reinforcements for your army and can be placed anywhere on the battlefield that is

wholly within 12" of the character and is more than 9" from any enemy model. If the total rolled is insufficient

to summon any unit, the ritual fails and no new unit is summoned.

If your summoning roll included any doubles, your character or Goremage Coven then suffers a mortal wound.

If it contained any triples, it instead suffers D3 mortal wounds.



HERETIC MILITARUM WARGEAR LISTS Many of the units you will find on the following pages reference one or more of the wargear lists below. When

this is the case, the unit may take any item from the appropriate list. The profiles for the items in these lists

BLOOD WITCH The Blood Pact is unusual among the servants of Khorne in that they are more willing to make use of psykers

and sorcerers than most, although even they do not usually allow them command authority. It is speculated

by the Inquisition that this is because the Blood Pact originated in the Sanguinary Worlds outside Imperial

space, and therefore is not as shaped by the prejudices of Angron’s World Eaters as Khornate factions

originating within the Imperium.

BOUND IN BLOOD

SPECIAL RULES

ENEMIES OF REASON

The Blood Pact is the backbone of the chaos forces in the Sabbat Worlds. Through ferocity and cunning it seeks

to bring the Imperial Crusade to a standstill.

If your army is Battle-forged, all Troops units in BLOOD PACT detachments gain this ability. Such a unit that is

within range of an objective marker (as specified in the mission) controls the objective marker even if there are

more enemy models within range of it. If an enemy unit within range of the same objective marker has a

similar ability, then the objective marker is controlled by the player who has the most models within range of it

as normal.

BLOODY HANDED FANATICS

For all their tactical brilliance, most members of the Blood Pact seek the joy of slaughter at close quarters.

If your army is Battle-forged, all BLOOD PACT units in a BLOOD PACT detachment gain +1 Strength in the fight

phase on a turn in which they charge.

SLAVES AND MERCENARIES

The blood pact makes extensive use of slave labour and is not above driving their prisoners into the guns of the

enemy. They are also willing to work with xenos mercenaries such as the alien Loxatl.

The following units can be included in a Battle Forged BLOOD PACT detachment without affecting its battle

forged status. However they are never considered BLOOD PACT units for any reason and do not gain the

BLOOD PACT or KHORNE keywords.

Slave Rabble

Loxatl Brood

Loxatl Broodmaster

Acolyte of Asphodel



WARLORD TRAITS The commanders of the Death Guard combine the strategic and tactical planning of Imperial forces with the

savagery and ruthlessness of their terrifying God.

If a BLOOD PACT CHARACTER is your Warlord, he can generate a Warlord Trait from the following table instead

of the one in the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook. You can either roll on the table below to randomly generate a

Warlord Trait, or you can select the one that best suits his temperament and preferred style of waging war.

D6 Warlord trait

1 DEVOTEE OF SLAUGHTER The warlord leads from the front, wading in the blood of his enemies. Whenever the warlord slays an enemy model in the fight phase they may immediately make another attack against an enemy model within 1”.

2 CUNNING TACTICIAN The warlord is a master of strategy and tactics. At the beginning of the game add D3 additional command points to your command pool.

3 BLASPHEMOUS DEMAGOGUE The warlord constantly utters blasphemous prayers to the Blood God, inspiring their followers to fight harder. You can re-roll failed Morale tests for friendly BLOOD PACT INFANTRY units within 6" of your Warlord in the Morale phase.

4 TRAITOR GENERAL The warlord was once an officer of the Imperial Guard, and knows their forces’ weaknesses. You can re-roll to-wound rolls of 1 for friendly BLOOD PACT units within 6” of your Warlord when attacking IMPERIUM units.

5 BLOOD MAGUS The Warlord is one of the rare few blood sorcerers to rise to a position of authority in the Blood Pacton the strength of their martial prowess. Your Warlord gains the PSYKER keyword and knows the Smite power and one power from the Haematurgy discipline. They can attempt to manifest one psychic power in each friendly Psychic phase, and attempt to deny one psychic power in each enemy Psychic phase.

6 MASTER OF AMBUSH The warlord is an expert at leading his enemies into a perfect killing ground. After deployment but before the first battle round you may re-deploy D3 friendly units. They may be placed anywhere on the battlefield more than 9” from any enemy unit.

NAMED CHARACTERS AND WARLORD TRAITS

If one of the following named characters is your Warlord, they must be given the associated Warlord Trait

listed below.

Urlock Gaur Devotee of Slaughter Vesh Etogaur Master of Ambush Mabbon Etogaur Traitor General Saggitar Slaith Blasphemous Demagogue



STRATAGEMS If your army is Battle-forged and includes any HERETIC MILITARUM Detachments (excluding Auxiliary Support

Detachments), you have access to the Stratagems shown below, meaning you can spend Command Points to

activate them. These help to reflect the unique tactics and strategies used by the Traitor Guard on the

battlefield.

1 CP FIGHT TO THE DEATH

Heretic Militarum Stratagem Many traitor guard are far more afraid of appearing unworthy in the eyes of their dark gods than of dying in battle. Use this Stratagem at the start of the Morale phase. Pick a HERETIC MILITARUM INFANTRY unit from your army that is required to take a Morale test. You can roll a D3 for the unit, rather than a D6, when taking this test.

1 CP CHAOS BOON

Heretic Militarum Stratagem The path of Chaos can lead a warrior to daemonhood, or it can see him transformed into a gibbering Chaos Spawn. Use this Stratagem at the end of a Fight phase in which one of your HERETIC MILITARUM CHARACTERS (not a Daemon Prince) slays an enemy CHARACTER, VEHICLE or MONSTER. Roll 2D6 and look up the result below. 2D6 Boon

2. Spawndom: Your character is slain. However, before removing the model as a casualty, you can add a Chaos Spawn to your army. If you do, set up the Chaos Spawn within 6" of your character before removing them.

3. Arcane Occulum: Add 6" to the Range of all of the character’s ranged weapons. 4. Temporal Distortion: Add 3" to the character’s Move characteristic. 5. Strength of the Berzerker: Add 1 to the character’s Strength characteristic. 6. Warp Frenzy: Add 1 to the character’s Attacks characteristic. 7. The Eye Opens: Choose a boon of your choice (you cannot choose Spawndom or Daemonhood). 8. Blademaster: Subtract 1 from hit rolls that target the character in the Fight phase. 9. Cosmic Fate: Add 1 to all saving throws made for the character. 10. Crystalline Body: Add 1 to the character’s Toughness characteristic. 11. Fragment of Immortality: Add 1 to the character’s Wounds characteristic. 12. Daemonhood: Your character is slain. However, before removing the model as a casualty, you can add

a Daemon Prince to your army. If you do, set up the Daemon Prince within 6" of your character before removing them.

Boons last for the rest of the battle. The same boon cannot be received by a model more than once – if this happens, choose a result the model has not yet received (excluding Spawndom and Daemonhood). Chaos Spawn or Daemon Princes created by a boon must have the same Mark of Chaos as the model had (if any), and they do not cost any reinforcement points in a matched play game.

1CP/3CP REWARDS OF CHAOS

Heretic Militarum Stratagem Those who excel in the service of the Blood Pact can expect to be rewarded with the finest wargear. Use this Stratagem before the battle. Your army can have one extra relic from the Artifacts of Slaughter for 1 CP, or two extra relics for 3 CPs. All of the relics that you include must be different and be given to different HERETIC MILITARUM CHARACTERS. You can only use this Stratagem once per battle.



2CP SPOILS OF WAR

Heretic Militarum Stratagem The forces of the Archenemy frequently employ equipment captured from their enemies and despoiled. Use this Stratagem before the battle. Your army can have one extra relic taken from any other Codex, although you must be able to fulfil its requirements. All of the relics that you include must be different and be given to different HERETIC MILITARUM CHARACTERS. You can only use this Stratagem once per battle, and may not use both this Strategem and REWARDS OF CHAOS.

1CP CRUSH THEM!

Heretic Militarum Stratagem Should the enemy be too close to engage with heavy cannons, heretic armour will simply rumble forward to crush them beneath their grinding treads. Use this Stratagem at the start of the Charge phase. Select a HERETIC MILITARUM VEHICLE unit from your army. This unit can charge even if it Advanced this turn. In the following Fight phase, attacks made by this unit hit on a 2+.

2CP PRELIMINARY BOMBARDMENT

Heretic Militarum Strategem A Blood Pact assault often begins with an initialbombardment of the enemy line, softening up the foe before the mass advance of infantry and armour. Use this Stratagem after both sides have deployed, but before the first battle round begins. Roll a dice for each enemy unit on the battlefield. On a 6, that unit suffers 1 mortal wound. You can only use this Stratagem once per battle.

1CP INSPIRED TACTICS

Heretic Militarum Stratagem A skilled officer can turn a battle on its head, throwing the enemy into confusion and inspiring their own soldiers to acts of remarkable heroism. Use this Stratagem after an OFFICER from your army has issued an order or tank order. That officer may immediately issue an additional order.



ARTIFACTS OF SLAUGHTER If your army is led by a HERETIC MILITARUM Warlord, then before the battle you may give one of the following

Heirlooms of Conquest to an HERETIC MILITARUM CHARACTER. Named characters such as Urlock Gaur already

have one or more artefacts, and cannot be given any of the following relics.

Note that some weapons replace one of the character’s existing weapons. Where this is the case, if you are

playing a matched play game or are otherwise using points values, you must still pay the cost of the weapon

that is being replaced. Write down any Heirlooms of Conquest your characters may have on your army roster.

The Black Sword of Nadzybar

This daemonic greatsword was the weapon wielded by the former Archon when he duelled the Warmaster

Slaydo on Balhaut. The Imperial forces never found it after the battle, as it had apparently been spirited away

by his followers in the confusion.

Model with Power Sword only. The Black Sword of Nadzybar replaces the model’s Power Sword and has the

following profile.


Black Sword of Nadzybar

Melee Melee +2 -3 D3 Re-roll failed rolls to wound when fighting a CHARACTER.

The Bloody Grotesk

This bestial iron mask is carved in the likeness of Khorne himself. It has a reddish tinge to the metal, having

been quenched in freshly spilled blood during its forging.

INFANTRY CHARACTER only. KHORNE units within 6” of the bearer gain a +1 bonus to their leadership. Enemy

units within 6” of the bearer suffer a -1 penalty to their leadership.

Goregutter

This vicious chain weapon seems to guide its bearer’s hand, thirsting for blood and tearing gaping wounds in

those it strikes.

Model with Eviscerator only. Goregutter replaces the model’s Eviscerator and has the following profile.


Goregutter Melee Melee x2 -4 3

Hellforged Athame

This wicked ritual dagger is forged from a shard of a Bloodletter’s sword. It channels Khorne’s disdain for the

weakling ways of sorcerers who do not spill blood.

Model with Athame only. A Hellforged Athame replaces the model’s Athame and has the following profile.


Hellforged Athame

Melee Melee +1 -1 D3 This model gains a +1 bonus to Deny the Witch tests and attempts to summon a unit using the Daemonic Ritual rule.

Jagged Plate

Modelled on the razor edged suit worn by Urlock Gaur, this armour is as much a weapon as it is a defence.



If this model passes a save in the fight phase, the attacking model suffers a mortal wound.



HAEMATURGY DISCIPLINE Goremages and Blood Witches draw on the power inherent in the blood of the living, making generous

sacrifices to their daemonic patrons to manifest powers similar to other psykers.

Before the battle, generate the psychic powers for PSYKERS that can use the Haematurgy discipline using the

table below. You can either roll a D6 to generate their powers randomly (re-roll duplicates), or you can select

the powers you wish them to have.

D6 RESULT

1 BLOODLUST Calling on the blessings of their daemonic patron the psyker incites their allies to an orgy of murder. Bloodlust has a Warp Charge value of 8. If manifested target one friendly KHORNE unit within 12”. That unit can immediately attack as if it was the Fight Phase.

2 BLOOD QUAGMIRE The psyker causes thick, viscous blood to bubble up through the ground beneath their enemies, softening the ground beneath their feet and causing them to become bogged down. Blood Quagmire has a warp charge value of 8. If manifested target D3 enemy units within 18” of the psyker and within 6” of each other that do not have the FLY keyword. Those units’ Movement values, charge and advance rolls are halved until the start of your next psychic phase.

3 BLOOD AUGURY By reading patterns in the blood spatter and entrails of their sacrifices the psyker examines the possible futures available. Blood Augury has a warp charge value of 8. If manifested inflict D3 Mortal Wounds on a friendly INFANTRY unit within 3”. Add a Command Point to your command pool.

4 BLOOD RAIN The psyker causes the clouds above them to darken and roil, unleashing a crimson rain which drenches the immediate area, bolstering the servants of the Blood God and terrifying the foe. Blood Rain has a warp charge value of 8. If manifested all KHORNE units within 12” of the psyker gain +1 Leadership and all enemy units within 12” lose -1 Leadership for the remainder of this battle round.

5 BLOOD GIFT With a swipe of their sacrificial blade the psyker draws the lifeblood and life force from one being and gives it to another. Blood Gift has a Warp Charge value of 8. Inflict D3 mortal wounds on a friendly INFANTRY unit within 3”. Target another Friendly KHORNE unit within 3”. One model in the unit recovers the same number of wounds lost earlier in the battle (if the unit has a Wounds characteristic of 1, the same number of models slain earlier in the battle are returned to the unit instead). A unit can only be the target of this ability once in each turn.

6 BLOOD RAGE Gesturing with a blood drenched hand, the psyker incites their allies to a frenzy of violence. Blood Rage has a Warp Charge value of 8. If manifested target a friendly KHORNE unit within 12”. Each model in the unit gains +1 to their Attacks characteristic until the start of your next psychic phase.



POINTS VALUES If you are playing a matched play game, or a game that uses a points limit, you can use the following lists to

determine the total points cost of your army. Simply add together the points costs of all your models and the

wargear they are equipped with to determine your army’s total points value.

TACTICAL OBJECTIVES If your army is led by BLOOD PACT Warlord, these Tactical Objectives replace the Capture and Control Tactical

Objectives (numbers 11-16) in the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook. If a mission uses Tactical Objectives, players

use the normal rules for using Tactical Objectives with the following exception: when a Blood Pact player

generates a Capture and Control objective (numbers 11-16), they instead generate the corresponding Blood

Pact Tactical Objective, as shown below. Other Tactical Objectives (numbers 21-66) are generated normally.

11 Blood for the Blood God!

destroyed, score D3 victory points instead.
