Still, think that might be a pauldron, not part of the chest plate... but yes, you're right.

It looks like it's the point where the pauldron meets the cuirass. And it's right over the nipple.

Yeah, but it looks like it is on top of the collar-pauldron thing, barely.
Still. Spike nipple.

I just feel like saying bad words tonight. Like bum, and tit.
I'm a really mean, obscene drunk.

Hey, it could be worse. You don't set things on fire.

Okay... but not very often? And nothing too important? Like a person?
Turns out Melisandre was just really drunk the entire time she was in A Song of Ice and Fire.

If their are women it has never been addressed or mentioned in the law. The chaos gods give you evil power to dominate your enemies and forefil your desires...Do the dark gods require a Y chromosone to function?

If it hasn't been prohibited officially, then I am assuming that there are a bunch of female Chaos Warriors running about killing things. It just makes sense.

I assume there aren't. There should be but I know games workshop. I don't think they know that women exist.
In defence of the that chaos warriors lop sided armour...he is a chaos warrior, so making him symetrical would kinda go against the theme.

But he could jab more people, or at least more effectively jab people, if he had two nipple spikes!

Well, as Red_Ned said, you can't really tell the difference between a woman in full plate and a man in full plate.
Edit, here is a different sort of game:
Note that it turns out you can't actually move within three inches of unit. That includes at any point during the movement phase, so there is a zone of control that you can't just walk through.
But still pretty "non-tactical" Not much power variation.
But this guy liked it.

Hey, just a thought, I may have figured out why there are no female chaos warriors. It's because of archetypes.
On the Empire's side we have various knights templars, and there is a female archetype for that, a warrior-nun. Sisters of Battle embody that archetype in 40K. A warrior-nun should be completely devoted, chaste, but is allowed to sometimes weirdly sexualize the object of her devotion, whose "bride" she is (it's been done since middle ages, i think, when the archetype formed).
But when you look for an archetype of a woman serving a satanic force... well, you pretty much only have a sorceress or a seductress. There are no female archetypes who venerate their gods with slaughter and warfare (Amazons don't quite fit the bill with armoured chaos warriors: common lore says they need to fight in bikinis and be sexualized).

StyxD the implication there would seem to be that GW are incapable of original thought. Probably accurate...
Canuovea you can have fun playing age of Sigmar, in so much as its a war game, you move the models around a bit and roll dice etc. But After the third game degenerates into a repetitive dice rolling exercise, you are going to start looking for something else to do with your time.

How is that any different from 8th edition fantasy though? I mean, it is all rolling dice.
StyxD, there are female Chaos Warriors. You can't tell one way or another just looking at the model, so therefore there are female Chaos Warriors.
