2 unique things here:
1.) Posessed. I'm using them, I don't see them very often, I decided to use some.
2.) the rhinos, rather than just being delivery systems for a squad of Marines with assault weapons, they are going to be "wannabe razorbacks." meaning they are going to move forward 6 inches and fire both their weapons, as well as the missile launcher.

Are you making up your own rules? Curious how the missile launcher gets the fire after the vehicle moves 6"?

Yeah no ML after moving. The posessed with the Lord will do some damage imo.

I think that going Plasma Flamer or melta on your CSM might work better. I would swap one squad for a havoc squad with assault weapons. If you keep the setup you have now I would go quad melta or quad flamer. Maybe one of each...

If you want razorbacks run loyalists imho. You would be better off running 2 or 3 CSM squads with dual meltas and 1 or 2 havoc squads with Flamers or Quad melta. Havoc launchers are soso and take them if you need but by dropping them you could probbly beef up two infantry squads or so with an AS and a Special Weapon on him.

If you don't change anything the list should do well vs horde type but might suffer a bit taking on high AV vehicles.

Why did you post this list?

See the two posts above yours.
I, you see, am an idiot, and need people smarter than me to point out flaws in my list, like the fact that I can't fire a ML after moving 6 inches.

Needless to say, the infantry squads are going to get some retooling.
I dont have my rulebook handy, can I fire assault weapons after the vehicle moves less than 6 inches?

Of course you can

Thanks a bunch, retooled list:

Leaving me a cool 91 points to play with.
leaving 22.75 points per squad if I put that back into the CSM.

Any suggestions?

Give as many squads as you can Aspiring Champions with Power Fists. That's your close combat killing.

That would be enough for 2 Aspiring Champions with power fists for 2 squads.

91 points of TANK KILL!!

I don't associate with Word Bearers....
jk, I don't like spending 40 points on a squad I plan on keeping out of CC, though with their new loadout, it would probably be prudent.
Still, I could save 5 points if I did PW + Meltabombs.

Just because you dont want them in CC, doesn't mean the enemy wont try to get them in CC. A dreadnaught will wreck shop on any CSM squad without a Power Fist, so I take AC/PF in the squad as default.

If I was to use Possessed I would take two squads to hopefully get one with Scout or Fleet. Or just something good in general. You are taking 9, 6 + a Champ is almost Slanesshian.
