These look a lot better than the BL ones. I still dont get why they cant have decurions like everybody else and have to include every single fomation.
No special characters or daemon princes in CS forces though.
This is from p50 of the new book. Wording is a slight change from previously.

Because Chaos Spacemarines do not have a decurion formation in their main codex so there is nothing for the Crimson Slaughter and the Black Legion to build on. The Tau and Spacemarines are a good example here as in both Kauyon and Mont'Ka the White Scars, Raven Guard and Farsight Enclaves had decurions that still drew from the formations in the parent codecies. It is more likely that once the Chaos Spacemarine codex comes out with a decurion there will be a campaign that gives both the Black Legion and the Crimson Slaughter a decurion of their own which will include the formations listed in the current codicies as well as include formations from the parent codex.

So you say it was too difficult to give them a decurion in these books instead of making a formation of formations that is 2100 points without equipment and only with minimum units?
Best thing is that Space Marines got new units AGAIN. One of them (and that is the bigges joke) is the Wordbearers Contemptor from the calth box...

What I am saying is that there are not enough formations in the Black Legion and Crimson Slaughter books to give them their own decurion. Each of the variant decurions draw formations from the main codex or, in the case of the Space Wolves and Chaos Daemons, are now included in their main codicies. I don't like this situation any more than you do but this is essentially the jist of it.

They do not have a decurion but the Red Onslaught, as a formation of formations, kind of play a similar role, isn't it?
Could they still use Zhufor? He doesn't have votlw on his profile and would help me with the loss of Huron
