Hi,

After my thousand sons were an absolute disaster and i can't a way to run them, i've decided to go Emperor's Children as I loved reading about them in Horus Heresy. The games we play at my GW are 1500 points and i have two list ideas that i want to run.

Rupture Battalion:

Core:

Chaos Warband

Chaos Lord: MoS, VoTLW, Bike, Warlord, Blissgiver, sigil of corruption-155

Chaos Terminators(x5): Icon of excess, MoS, VoTLW, 1 termie with claws, 1 with reaper autocannon and PF, 1 with Chain fist and combi-plasma, 1 with PF and combi-plasma, champion with PS and Combi-plasma - 292

Chaos Bikers(x6): icon of excess, MoS, VoTLW, 2X Meltagun - 197

Havoc Squad: MoS, vOtlw, 4x Autocannon - 125

Chaos Space Marines(x5): MoS, VoTLW, Rhino, Meltagun - 130

Chaos Space Marines(x5): MoS, VoTLW, Rhino, Meltagun - 130


Auxiliary

Raptor Talon

Chaos Lord: MoS, vOtlw, Jump Pack, Sigil of corruption, PF- 130

Raptors (x5): MoS, VoTLW, PF- 130

Raptors (x5): MoS, VoTLW -105

Raptors (x5): MoS, VoTLW -105

And the second;

Core

Kakaphoni

Chaos Lord: MoS, VoTLW, Warlord, Blissgiver, Bolt pistol, Aura of dark glory - 130

Noise Marines (x10): MoS, VoTLW, 9x sonic blaster, 1x blastmaster, icon of excess, Rhino, - 302

Noise Marines (x10): MoS, VoTLW, 9x sonic blaster, 1x blastmaster, icon of excess, Rhino, - 302

Noise Marines (x5): MoS, VoTLW, 5x sonic blaster - 110

Auxiliary

Cult of Destruction

Warpsmith - 110

Obliterators (x2): MoS, VoTLW - 142

Obliterator (x1): MoS, VoTLW - 71

Obliterator (x1): MoS, VoTLW - 71


Are either of these lists viable? The first one is mainly using models that i am getting for my 30k army.

Thanks In Advance.

I would say your second list needs some tweaking to make it more viable. I would lose the sonic blasters and blastmasters from the rhino units, while adding doom siren and power swords to their champs. I would put a blastmaster in the supporting non-rhino unit, maybe even dropping one of the two man oblits to bolster to a ten man with 2 blastmasters (not checked points for this).

However, I would say your 1st list seems more competitive as is more mobile and contains more scoring (and objective secure) units. Try shaving some points off your terminator weapon choices (or numbers) to either buy a bike or invuln save (or both) for your lord.

That's just me though

Never re-roll dice, choose different dice. The dice you rolled first time were broken!!
