It was during Archaon's spotlight push in 6th ed WFB with the release of Hordes of Chaos in 2002 that while Undivided did get it's own mark, Chaos armies were ironically pushed back towards worshiping a single god, with armies lead by a general with the mark of a specific god unable to take mortal or deamon units belonging to another god, characters not being able to join units with a different mark to them, and gorgeous individual studio armies for all four Chaos Gods spotlighted in both the Hordes of Chaos book and White Dwarf, encouraging players to return to structuring their forces around a single Chaos God. Check out the studio Chaos army from 1994: Post Realm of Chaos in the early to mid 90s everything Chaos went a bit explosion in a paint factory with servants of all four powers gleefully fighting alongside each other and Count Mordrek the Damned being introduced as an explicitly undivided/marked character (though more in the vein that the Chaos Gods had forgotten about him than especially coveted him). Prior to that the Chaos Gods were much fleshed out, with no special rules or marks for the servants of different powers (unless you count the Horned Rat!) and everything you'd consider part of a conventional Chaos army just falling under the banner of "Chaos". Because he was the key figure to Chaos Armies stopping being God devided armies.Ĭhaos armies were only really monotheistic during the Realm of Chaos era when Slaves to Darkness and Lost and the Damned offered boutique army lists for all four gods.

In addition, Chaos Undivided became a thing through Archaon even.
