Daemon of Tzeentch
Daemons of Tzeentch have Hatred (Daemons of Nurgle), and re-roll Ward save results of 1. Wizards that are a Daemon of Tzeentch can also re-roll channelling results of 1.

They treat Daemons of Khorne and Slaanesh as Suspicious Allies, and Daemons of Nurgle 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.
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
Flaming Attacks
Models with Flaming Attacks cause Fear in War Beasts, Cavalry, Chariots and Flammable creatures. Any Panic test taken by any of these Troop Types from a Flaming Shooting Attack suffer -1 to their LD when taking the test.

Unless otherwise stated, a model with this special rule has both Flaming shooting and close combat attacks (though any spells cast by the model are unaffected, as are any attacks made with magic weapons they might be wielding).
Exalted Fire of Tzeentch
During the Shooting phase, the Exalted Flamer can shoot either Pink Fire or Blue Fire. These do not have Move or Fire. If a misfire is rolled when resolving Pink Fire or Blue Fire, the Exalted Flamer suffers D6 S D6 hits with Flaming Attacks.
