How I think Chaos should be handled

Before I get on with this, I added a poll to discern how many of my fellow Chaos players will be worshipping which god. If we even can that is.

First off, no mono God theme. Seriously, ALOT of the fun of playing Chaos is picking your patron.

Secondly, dont make a class STRICTLY one God. For example, whatever type of spell casters we get. They dont ALL worship Tzeentch.

Thirdly, include Slaanesh. Im only fifteen, but I know a breast here or there wont kill anyone. I actually think they should shoot for a M rating.

Lastly, maybe include some sort of.... Dynamic Mutation. I read somewhere that they wanted you to work your way up, and that they wanted your character to really reflect what youve done; what better way for us Chaos players to do that than showing off our badass mutations?

My view on our classes.
If they go with the work your way up idea, we will probably see something similar.

Could be something different, but you get the idea; start out as a peon, and grow into something fierce.
HOWEVER you should CERTAINLY be able to direct your character into following any god he wishes.

If we go by the work your way up idea, then what do you think the ultimate goal will be?
Obviously we cant all be Chaos Lords and Daemon Princes.

This is just my outlook on Chaos.

PS: Would anyone else laugh like hell if the main Chaos Legion was the Sons of Malice?

Well thus far the only indications of any Chaos we've seen were Khornate (dreadnought in trailer, and World Eaters marines) and Nurgle (great unclean one in trailer) though nothing concrete on playable Chaos. I'm guessing that it will be only World Eaters as playable since that's the image that's been up on the official web portal since its launch. Personally, I'm hoping for Chaos Undivided, my favorite.

Undivided with dedicated classes to each god. One of the places WAR fell flat in was placing Chaos squarely in the grasp of the bird dude. Undivided would have pleased more people & i would prefer sorcerers of a Mr. T-change, berserkers plague marines, and noise marines instead of just generic CSM.

I could stand playing Undivided.

I could stand it as each class to a specific god.

I couldnt stand Khorne being the main focus. Khorne isnt my favorite.... But I dont think they would go that way, how could you justify the caster class? Itd all work if we were pure Undivided or Mono god classes.
I wanted you to start as a generic CSM, then be able to specialize into a god later if you want.

World Eaters are Khornate, correct?

Or is that the Word Bearers? I mix those two up.

Im certain they will be playable. THEY BETTER BE.

I'm not a chaos fan so correct me if I'm wrong always wanted to know how the enemy thinks.
If the space marines are all Black Templar I think it was, wouldn't all chaos be of the same Warband. Here's where I'm unsure if all the chaos were from the same Warband wouldn't the worship the same deity?

That would be correct. The World Eaters are pure Khorne.

If Khorne is the main focus all we can really have is melee, NO magic, and POSSIBLY VERY VERY LITTLE ranged combat.

Featured Chaos:
-- World Eater Chaos Space Marines
-- World Eater Dreadnought
-- World Eater Tank of some sort.
-- "Festering Cultists"
-- Great Unclean One.
-- Hostile/Nurgle Praetorian Servitors

I'm thinking it going to be Chaos Undivided given the lack of Chaos material. We have Nurgle and Khorne followers but only a single class, the World Eater Chaos Space Marine. It is more that probable the others 4 are different aspects of Chaos.

On the topic of Slaanesh
To do Slaanesh justice the game would have to be rated high end M or 18+. Dark Eldar and Slannesh followers are really sick f****. In combat focused games it is alright to feature them in some regards because the emphasis is on war and not the culture. In an MMO which, like video and literature is supposed to capture the environment and setting, it very hard to that with a Slaanesh focused Chaos and still get a M, let alone a T. A lot of what the Dark Eldar and Slaaneshi do is left for the mind to imagine, GW uses worlds like "perverse", "corrupt", "pleasure" and "ecstasy" but doesn't define what it is that feeds Slannesh in the material world (which is clearly the darkest depths of sexual perversion). GW has stayed clear of Dark Eldar and Slaanesh stories for this very reason. When it does however it dehumanises it or diverts attention to Slaaneshi narcissism. [eg. Fulgrim and Daemonifuge]

As long as the Lord of Decay has a class, I'll be happy.
