well that is filthy and thats before i saw the marks of nurgle.... the only problem i can see you having in this points level is being swamped or battle cannoned to death.....other then that i sure as hell wouldnt want to play it !!!



cypher 19

If your troops are just gonna stay in rhinos i'd cut back to 2 Melta guns a unit.

I love the list by the way, I was thinking when i saw Chaos and ,ard boyz I'd see lashes

No Lashes! That's the fun part about making a list for 'Ard Boyz. Take the worlds most talked about armies, and then don't use the Units everyone is fearing. I came in second locally last year without any Nob Bikers!

The idea is to set up walls, or corals, and determine where I want my firing lanes to go. So red rover red rover send those hordes of Orks over! I'm going to experiment a bit and see how it works out.

i love power armor spam

it makes me think of the artwork depicting legions of marines charging the enemy

good luck!

Reading lists copied from army builder hurts my eyes.

It looks like you have all the bases covered, but the list doesnt seem too powerful.

Unbalanced armies that focus on one thing to the exclusion of all else (like Nob-bikers, jetbike councils, LR-spam, nidzilla) tend to do quite well in 'ard boys because they have as much as they can of a good thing.

Vanilla CSM arent really anything special. They are ok but not exceptional, and when you are facing exceptional armies, ok probably wont cut it. unfortunately there isnt really anything you can do about that without re-arranging your entire army.

One thing i will say is that CSM with no marks, no champion and no special weapons are just bad. They cant do anything. You may be able to kill a couple of dozen orks with your bolters but that doesnt really cut the mustard. At the very least you should make them some form of cult marines (you dont have enough anti-tank or anti-horde to get away with 1KSons) and give them special weapons.

They all have meltaguns and Mark of Chaos Glory. There is plenty to take care of Nob Bikers (meltas), Land Raiders (meltas), and the Lash (autocannon).

Yeah its a bit hard to read, if you are using multiple of one unit you might just want to put like (x3) next to it not post all 3. I had to look this over a couple times to get all the units lol...

Looks good though, a lot of powerarmor and a lot of meltaguns, reminds me a bit of my sisters army with meltagun spam lol.

It's an interesting list. Better might be to make the chosen/havoc squads have 2melta/2flamer or a couple with 4plasma, then have the troops be plague marines with 2melta or 2plasma. PMs are better than CSM here primarily because they can take two special weapons a squad sizes under 10, though the FNP is of course nice as is the Fearless. Consider for your HQs Sorcerers with Lash or Wind of Chaos, or even Huron Blackheart.
