Background
The Warhammer Armies: Warriors of Chaos book is copyright 2008 and describes the Mortal Chaos army for the 7th Edition of Warhammer Fantasy Battles by Games Workshop.
Changes from sixth edition
While the old Hordes of Chaos book allowed the player to take both Daemons and Mortals (Mortals would be core if the general was a mortal and Daemons would be core if the General was a Daemon) as well as include units from the Beasts of Chaos book as special or rare choices, this book kept its focus exclusively on the mortal followers of Chaos. Because of the loss of daemons, the army list was given several options that, while new to the book, were found in the Beasts of Chaos army book. The options gained (Chaos Ogres, Chaos Giants, Dragon Ogres, Chaos Trolls and the Dragon Ogre Shaggoth) were not included in the Beastmen armybook in 7th edition.
