Champion of Chaos Mechanic I really dont like it.

Says enough in and of itself. At least on lsm I can keep my space marines esp high level ones paired with other units to make nice combos. However, this spawn into something random mechanic needs to be reconsidered. I find myself losing more resources having to respawn csm marines everytime they change into choas spawns its just so frustrating and not cool. IT takes away from the player I do not see a benefit to this randomized trait. Their should be rework on the trait entirely. I hate it honestly. Especially when I need my marines for nades and other stuff :/

You might have been experiencing the bug introduced with latest patch which caused it to happen virtually all the time. Definitely made chaos unplayable. I understand your frustration with the mechanic, but I think the idea is that you are playing "chaos" and sometimes chaotic things happen. And its a double edged sword. Things to not always turn into spawn. Sometimes you get boons, sometimes you turn into super powerful daemon prince. Can go either way. Personally as long as the percentages make sense to where its something like <5% of the time I dont think it would be too bad. Sure you run the chance of having a hero devolve into spawn, but he might also become a prince. Plus it does a full heal on the unit which can be good as well.

Yea I got that message from the devs appreciate your help, but I am just talking about the mechanic in general.

Not all tabletop mechanics work when transitioning from a 6 turn tabletop game into a longer (or even persistent) PC game. This is why, for instance, CA scrapped or nerfed much of the nastiness from the miscast mechanic when implementing it to their Total War version of the game. In this case, the Chaos Spawn mechanic is an example par excellence. This is the reason why I won't even play the faction. In the least, the mechanic needs to be scrapped for Heroes.
