Well I branching out to CSM, so I divided it into 2 lists that I modified from army list I have found on the forums, but the question is which one?
List 1:
HQ:
Chaos Lord-Bolt Pistol (x1); Close Combat Weapon (x1); Fearless; Frag Grenades; Krak Grenades
Elite:
5 Chosen-Bolt Pistol (x5); Close Combat Weapon (x5); Heavy Bolter; Flamer (x2); Meltagun (x2); Frag Grenades; Krak Grenades; Infiltrate; Rhino
5 Chosen-Bolt Pistol (x5); Close Combat Weapon (x5); Heavy Bolter; Flamer (x2); Meltagun (x2); Frag Grenades; Krak Grenades; Infiltrate; Rhino
Troops:
4 Noise Marines-Bolt Pistol; Close Combat Weapon; Blastmaster; Sonic Blaster (x3); Frag Grenades; Krak Grenades; Fearless; Mark of Slaanesh; Rhino
1 Noise Champion-Bolt Pistol; Close Combat Weapon; Doom Siren; Sonic Blaster; Frag Grenades; Krak Grenades; Fearless; Mark of Slaanesh
4 Noise Marines-Bolt Pistol; Close Combat Weapon; Blastmaster; Sonic Blaster (x3); Frag Grenades; Krak Grenades; Fearless; Mark of Slaanesh; Rhino

1 Noise Champion-Bolt Pistol; Close Combat Weapon; Doom Siren; Sonic Blaster; Frag Grenades; Krak Grenades; Fearless; Mark of Slaanesh
Heavy Support:
1 Predator-Twin Linked Lascannon; Havoc Launcher; 2 x Heavy Bolter Sponsons; Daemonic Possession; Searchlight; Smoke Launchers

Rhino Rush with a predator support....basic idea is to soften up the area with predator and do the hop out and burn'em down in one phase.
List 2:
HQ:
1 Chaos Terminator Lord
Elite:
3 Terminators-Power Weapon (x3); Twin Linked Bolter (x2); Heavy Flamer (x1); Icon of Slaanesh; Mark of Slaanesh; Land Raider
3 Terminators-Power Weapon (x3); Twin Linked Bolter (x2); Heavy Flamer (x1); Icon of Slaanesh; Mark of Slaanesh; Land Raider
Troops:
5 Noise Marines-Bolt Pistol; Close Combat Weapon; Blastmaster; Sonic Blaster (x4); Frag Grenades; Krak Grenades; Fearless; Mark of Slaanesh; Rhino
1 Noise Champion-Bolt Pistol; Close Combat Weapon; Bolter; Doom Siren; Frag Grenades; Krak Grenades; Melta Bombs; Fearless; Mark of Slaanesh

This list is mostly armor heavy with a lil bit of burn and assualt type theme.
So which on do you all think would work better??

Well, it's very hard to read. Landraiders work quite well these days, so I'd opt for list 2.

We don't really need to know about things the marines come with naturally (bolt pistols, grenades, etc). Just list the # in the squad and the upgrades.
Ex:
3 Terminators w/ Heavy Flamer @ (points level)
Land Raider @ points level
Less for you to type, much easier to read.
I'm not sure I like all the squads of 5 in rhinos. They give up a lot kill points and don't bring much hurt.
I'd go with list 2 just because 2 Land Raiders is a pain.

I would not use either of those lists. A Predator please lol Rino's are good for the rush I will agree. You lack Fast Attack, you need some raptors with the mark of Slaanesh if anything they will act as a distraction give them meltas for tank hunting. For Heavy Support obliterators I can not say it enough.
