The cultists of Chaos can be found, in one form or another, almost anywhere the Imperium has spread. At first glance, they are indistinguishable from normal men, but under their clothes, their flesh is tattooed and branded with sigils that hurt the eyes of any faithful who look upon them. When the Chaos Space Marines come to a planet, the true colours of the cultists are revealed. The powers of darkness are ever quick to promise glory, and even the lowliest initiate knows that to fight alongside such legendary warriors is to court the gaze of the gods.

Being a particularly weak enemy, they are usually not hard to deal with. However, they often attack in swarms of multiple units. Frag grenades and similar anti-infantry abilities are very effective against them, but keep in mind that due to them attacking in droves, you should always have a few backup units near to help defend.
