Daemon of Khorne
Daemons of Khorne have Hatred (Daemons of Slaanesh) and Magic Resistance (1) and Strength Bonus (1).

They treat Daemons of Tzeentch and Nurgle as Suspicious Allies, and Daemons of Slaanesh as Desperate Allies.
Daemonic
All models with Daemonic have Fear, Immunity (Poisoned Attacks, Psychology), Magical Attacks (including all weapons) and Ward save (5+) (except mounts). In addition, they are also subject to the following special rule:

Daemonic Instability: When a unit of Daemons loses a combat it must take a special kind of Break test called a Daemonic Instability test, instead of taking a normal Break test. To do this, use the following procedure:

1) Calculate combat result as normal and roll 2D6.

2) If the dice roll is a double 1 or double 6, something unexpected happens:

Double 1 Reality Blinks: All Wounds suffered by the unit this Close Combat phase, including any Wounds suffered by characters that have joined it, are restored, and any models removed as casualties in this phase immediately return to play in their earlier positions. Wounds restored in this manner still count as having been inflicted for the purposes of combat results.

Double 6 Banished! Remove the unit from play as a casualty.

3) Now (assuming the unit has not been wiped out when resolving a double 6) apply the difference in combat results as a penalty to the Daemons' LD characteristics. For every point by which the 2D6 roll exceeds this modified LD value, the unit suffers one additional Wound, with no saves of any kind allowed.

If characters are present in the unit, the controlling player first allocates Wounds to the unit (up to their current Wounds), then divides remaining Wounds as equally as possible amongst any characters. Once all Wounds have been allocated, the penalty to the Daemons' LD is discounted. They can, be rerolled if the battle standard is within 12", use the General's Inspiring Presence rule, and/or be tested on unmodified LD if the unit is Stubborn or Steadfast. If a Daemonic unit somehow is Unbreakable, it takes no Daemonic Instability test.
Impact Hits (D6)
The number of Impact Hits is shown in brackets after the rule. If a creature is granted two sets of Impact Hits, use the highest set, rather than a total, before rolling. If a unit contains more than one model that inflicts a random amount of Impact Hits, always roll separately for each model.

Impact Hits are only made on the turn the model makes a successful charge into close combat, and only against the unit the model has charged. Impact Hits are resolved at the very beginning of the close combat, before challenges are issued and attacks of any other kind are made. They hit a unit in base contact and are randomised as Automatic Hits. If the model is in base contact with more than one unit, randomise the Impact Hits between them as evenly as possible. If the model with Impact Hits is not in base contact with the enemy, no Impact Hits are inflicted.

Impact Hits roll to wound using the S of the model making the Impact Hits. Any armour saves taken are done using the close combat value of the armour, and Parry saves may not be taken. Any Wounds caused by Impact Hits are counted towards combat resolution. 

Unless specified, any rules that apply to the model’s normal attacks do not apply to its Impact Hits.
Swiftstride
When charging, units entirely made of models with Swiftstride and M 7 or higher roll 3D6, discard the lowest result, and add the result to their M value. When fleeing or pursuing, they roll 3D6, rather than 2D6.

When charging, units entirely made of models with Swiftstride and M 6 or lower roll 2D6, and add the result to their M value. Whenfleeing or pursuing, they roll 3D6, and discard the lowest result.

Swiftstride has no effect on models using a M value lower than 4.

Swiftstride M6 or lower
Charging: M + 2D6
Failed Charge: 2D6
Fleeing/Pursuing: 3D6 (discard the lowest)

Swiftstride M7 or more
Charging: M + 3D6 (discard the lowest)
Failed Charge: 3D6 (discard the lowest)
Fleeing/Pursuing: 3D6
Gorefeast
If this chariot's Impact Hits cause unsaved Wounds, immediately roll a D6 for each Wound caused. For each score of 4+, the chariot regains a single Wound lost earlier in the game.
Scythes
Impact Hits (+1).
