G'day all,

I got a quick question regarding Chaos Undivided formations in the Lost and the Damned list and which daemons they can summon.
Can Chaos Undivided formations summon any of the 4 Greater Daemons (and the various Lessar Daemons)?

I've read this:
Quote:
The summoning formation’s faction dictates what types of daemons may be summoned (see below).

Khorne - Bloodthirster (Greater Daemon), Bloodletters
Nurgle - Great Unclean One (Greater Daemon), Plaguebearers
Slaanesh - Keeper of Secrets (Greater Daemon), Daemonettes
Tzeentch - Lord of Change (Greater Daemon), Flamers
Any faction - Daemonic Beasts


But, does that mean the Chaos Undivided formations can only summon Daemonic Beasts?
Can a Chaos Undivided formation summon a Greater Daemon using the LatD list?

Thanks for any help,
Steve.

You are correct an Undivided formation can only raise Daemonic Beasts & no Greater Daemon.

In other words, noone bothers with chaos undivided.

Should rename them Chaos Indecisive, and allow them to summon ditherer daemons. They don't actually do anything though; they spend the whole turn trying to decide what the best action to take would be.

I do, they make a nice buffer between Khorne & Slaanesh forces and let you have Hellfire Cannons.

Covens from any faction can take undivided support formations as well as their own Faction.

Quote:
Each Stigmatus Cultist coven included in the army allows
the player to take one Stigmatus Covenant Support Coven.
Chaos Daemon Engine covens must be chaos undivided or
belong to the same faction as the Cultist coven associated
with it. For example, if the army included two Khorne
Stigmatus Cultist covens the army could include two
Khorne daemon engines covens or one Khorne and one
undivided daemon engine coven
.


As Tiny Tim stated, they are very useful as a buffer formation if playing with hated factions.

Having limited choices for Undivided also allows for summoning "upgrades" for especially faithful forces, e.g. Word Bearers being undivided, but allowed to summon daemons from any faction.
