Prince of Excess: Slaanesh is the prince of Excess and Depravity and rewards those that embrace those ideals.

Some SAGA Abilities will reward the player with Pleasure Points which are added to the Pleasure Pool. These then give you Pleasure Tokens on a depreciating scale shown below.

Slaanesh drives it’s followers to more excess, more depravity and with each step down the path of damnation more is required to feel pleasure which is represented with the diminishing returns.

Each Yellow Number reached adds a Pleasure Token to the Pool.

Slaanesh

"Embrace your hunger, your lust, your desire. The universe is ours for the taking!" - Slaanesh

It is not merely the killing that stimulates the sense but relishing each second of it, each bullet impact or blade cut must be perfect

Savor the Kill (1-3, 4-5 or 6)
Melee or Shooting

Perform the attack as normal but only a single enemy model may be removed as a casualty regardless of how much damage is done.

Instead for each unsaved hit that would result in a model being removed from the unit gain Two Pleasure Points.

In a fit of Passion the followers of the Prince of Excess lose themselves in utter, if temporary, bliss

Unbridled Excess (1-3 and 4-5)
Melee or Melee/Reaction

Add your current Pleasure Tokens to your attack pool.

Discard half your Pleasure Points.

In order to be perfect and truly savor the moment of completion a warrior must first act swiftly and with single minded purpose

Supernatural Speed (1-3 or 6)
Activation

Activate units equal to half your Pleasure Tokens to move, shoot or attack, this does not count as an action for fatigue purposes.

Discard half your Pleasure Points unless a 6 was used.

On Istvaan V during the Dropsite Massacre of the Horus heresy Emperor’s Children were slaughtered by Lightning Claw wielding Raven Guard, they did nothing to resist as they were so caught up in the pain and the pleasure of the experience.

Lost in the Experience (1-3 or 4-5)
Melee

Discard all defence dice but 1.

Gain One Pleasure Point for each Model slain or Two Each if either Unit was wiped out.

Self Indulgence (1-3 or 4-5)
Activation

Choose a Friendly Unit, they can gain fatigue up to their exhaustion level. Add twice as many Pleasure Points as Fatigue taken.

Battle invigorates the soul, or rather the many flawless sword strokes, prefect head shots and emotional excess do

The Invigoration of Battle (6)
Orders

Until the start of the next turn each time any unit looses more than three models all Friendly units within L lose a single point of fatigue.

To see the Follows of Slaanesh up close requires a strong Constitution and even stronger self control

Depravity Made Manifest (1-3 + 1-3)
Melee or Melee/Reaction

Select an enemy unit in melee and force them to discard attack dice equal to your Pleasure Tokens

OR

Select a Friendly Unit in melee, they get a +1 on all dice this combat.

Your Opponent Decides.

No matter what the Slaanesh unit gains an extra point of fatigue.

To take aim at the followers of Slaanesh is to receive but a taste of their full glory and depravity before the trigger is pulled

Just a Taste (1-3 or 4-5)
Shooting/Reaction

Gain Two Defence Dice

At the End of the Shooting Attack the attacking unit takes as many fatigue as your unit has.

Occasionally the Followers of Slaanesh may become fixated on the sheer scale of the excess and perfection surrounding them and fall into a pleasure trance that makes them useless to their leaders but gives off an aura that drives their comrades on even further than any drug

Lost in Pleasure (1-3, 4-5 or 6)
Melee

Remove 1-3 Warriors or Hearthguard Models from the unit.

Gain Three Attack Dice for each model removed (4 each if you used a 6).

The Music of Slaanesh was enough to corrupt an entire Legion of the Emperor’s Children and their Primarch, now that same music accompanies them into battle, played by twisted daemons and horrendously mutated Noise marines

The Perfect Chorus (6 + 6)
Orders

Until the End of the Turn

The Melee Armour of ALL Units is reduced by 1.

All your Charges are Free Activations

“Lost in Pleasure” becomes a Basic Saga Ability.

Take care, lest your protests grow tiresome. I have asked for so little! Anyone would think that I have asked you to sacrifice yourselves and your sons! And yet, in Slaanesh's boundless and pleasing mercy, I have asked only for your daughters. Surely you would not deny me my small enjoyments? - Tyrell, Renegade Lord of Arden IX
