Slaves to Darkness collectors need a fair sealed floor, clean title matching, and a short path from first box to a playable shelf. This guide is buying advice — live prices and kits live on the Slaves to Darkness army hub.
Chaos Warriors sworn to the Dark Gods. Slaves to Darkness are mortal Chaos hosts: Warriors, Chosen, and Darkoath tribes. They sit at the centre of Chaos collecting.
Where to start buying
Start with Spearhead: Slaves to Darkness. Open the box page, compare sealed all-in prices to complete used comps for the same edition, then set a watch under the middle of the sealed band. The Slaves to Darkness start path walks the same decision in order.
Cross-check the Slaves to Darkness army hub for every kit that currently ships to you — Spearhead floors move, and a “cheap” listing is only cheap if it matches the same contents.
What to buy after the Spearhead
Spearhead: Slaves to Darkness first. Add Chaos Warriors or Chosen second. Exclude Blades of Khorne titles from your watches.
Useful follow-on pages on SprueSentry: Chaos Warriors Halberds Upgrade Set, Slaves To Darkness: Abraxia Spear of the Everchosen, Slaves To Darkness: Chaos Chosen, Slaves To Darkness: Chaos Knights.
Common listing traps
- +Blades of Khorne kits in Warriors of Chaos lots.
- +Incomplete Chaos Warrior boxes.
- +Archaon listings missing the mount or base.
When photos look thin, read how to spot incomplete used kits and sealed vs opened vs painted before you pay.
How to read the price
Fair value is the recent sealed and complete-used cluster for that exact box — not MSRP. What is a Spearhead worth? explains how we read floors. Prefer all-in landed cost (shipping, duties, tax) over sticker price.

No. This post is long-form buying advice. The army hub is the entity home for kits, floors, and reading lists. Use both — do not treat this guide as a second lore encyclopedia.
