Abaddon
Kharn the Betrayer
5 Berserkers w/Fist champ
5 Berserkers w/Fist champ
5 CSM
20 Possessed w/Icon of Nurgle
Land Raider w/Dozer blade
Land Raider w/Dozer blade
Land Raider w/Dozer blade
Edit, yeah, should probably explain a little.
The 20 man possessed unit runs along with Abaddon and Kharne joined in. They can spread out to avoid template fire or clump up to fight, can't be lashed due to Kharn, win combat due to both characters being face beaters and the unit being moderately fighty (particularly if it rolls a good fight result), and crump walkers due to both characters being good at that. Land Raiders sit on objectives, or Tank Shock to them late game.

All in all, fact is that Warhammer 40K has never been as balanced as it is now, and codex releases have never been as interesting as they are now (new units and vehicles and tons of new special rules/strategies each release -- not just the same old crap with a few changes in statlines and points costs).

Ooooooooh that looks fun. Maybe I'll run a scrimmage against it to get a better feel.

Does Kharn's 'Blessing of the Blood God' rule also affect the squad?
I would assume so, since he can't be affected and he's part of the unit, which would be awesome to use against Eldar.

Check out YMDC, there are a lot of Kharn topics that'll hash it out for you.
