Hi,
I would drop the giant and chosen on the first unit of warriors to make both units larger. Chosen + khorne is pretty much a waste of points, in fact, chosen is pretty much always a waste of points as the unit still only moves 4 which means any good player isn't going to engage that unit unless they are getting a couple flanks and are going to kill the unit anyway. Good luck.

Drop the furies as well cause you wont be able to take them once the daemon book is out. Combine the two warrior units drop some to get a group of 18, get a chariot, another character and some marauder horsemen to threaten the flanks

Ok hows that then? Well while i will be losing my furies soon i may as well use them while i still can! from what i hear im going to be losing the BoC as well Not sure what changes i will be able to make to the list when that happens (guess it will have to be marauders and another hero).
Anyways cheers for the replies.

Looks better, I would still try to find a way to make the warrior units larger, any dedicated shooting will be able to drop them to only 1 rank bonus. I would also consider using hw+s instead of halberds, 3+ save in combat is really good.

Ok, how about something like this then, i personally am concerned by raising the warrior units in size to much that other units giving them little support.

The Chaos Mortal Army list is due out in this comming White Dwarf. I would suggest that you wait till then before doing any construction or purchasing any additional models.
Otherwise it looks like a decent Chaos list.

Well isnt it a shame, the chaos list really dosnt offer a whole lot of builds. its either minimal core, maxim special/rare, or, erm, yeah... Well i've played a about 5 games with the new list, and really, unless i want to max out on cavalry/chariots, this seems like the most viable build, still, last time i played i ran into problems in the form of a Dwarf lord with 1+ save + rerolls and a 4+ wardsave and being immune to killing blow, i was not best pleased!
Well hopefully i will get some more games in thursday at GW
Basically i think the main problems with chaos as it stands is that our lords cost far to many points to use and we lack the magic items/weapons to give the heroes the killing power the used to have.
I think in previous games i have had made the mistake of putting my generally with my knights when clearly he is needed to support my warrior blocks, i guess half the problem here is that when you see a unit with two attacks each its all to easy to think the units can handle themselves.
Really i would liked to have the mark of Khorne on the chariot but hand to lose something to fit the giant in (it was taht or a great weapon).
Exalted with great weapon goes with the Warriors with HW+ SH while the other goes with the warriors with great weapons.
