Amen! I post this in nearly every Chaos army list I try to help out. Regular CSM are great for what they are. The more bodies you have, the higher your chance of winning is, plain and simple. That also means more shots and more special weapons which is never a bad thing.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/242088/743772.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/242088/743772.page GMT Chaos Space marine Army List 1500 competitive CSM ^

1. Havoc Launchers are pretty great. What happens to your transport after it unloads the squad? It's usually ignored. So why not give it a blast weapon for 15pts that makes it still useful and still scary (this thing massacres orks and the like). Either way, it adds more targets to your opponent's radar.

2. I'd be careful about using berzerkers. If they get the charge they an carve through anything, but they're too easy to be shot to death before killing anything because of their total lack of ranged power. Again, regular CSM will not let you down here.

3. Definitely dump the havoc launcher on your predator. It's a tank hunter with an anti-horde blast weapon that has to be shot at the tank you fire your lascannons at.

4. Shaving off that havoc launcher and the reaper on the termies should give you the points to get a rhino for the other CSM squad (flamer squad) which you'll need. The rest of your army is very fast and I wouldn't want to leave this squad behind.

Also, try to find some points for daemonic possession for the vindicator. You need that gun firing as much as possible.

Strong list overall though. Just refine it a bit.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/242088/743796.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/242088/743796.page GMT Re:Chaos Space marine Army List 1500 competitive CSM squad a Rhino and run the CSM as Melta/Flamer. The terminators can just deep strike.

Instead of the defiler run a Chaos Dread with a Multi-Melta and just make sure to point him away from you army *(he can't pivot and shoot, so its a 45* angle from the gun)

Are you saying that as long as the Dread is facing away from friendly units, they aren't considered to be in line of sight so it won't shoot them? Is that true?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/242088/744161.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/242088/744161.page GMT Re:Chaos Space marine Army List 1500 competitive

also, i'd suggest taking off the reaper autocannon from the terminators, since you already have all those combi-weapons and a flamer the autocannon just makes the squad too point heavy]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/242088/749190.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/242088/749190.page GMT
