hey! im new to this forum and was looking for a little critique of a couple army list.
my theme is a nurgle, slaanesh, and a little undivided list and to make it well rounded,
soo here is the first list

HQ
lord w/ MoS Blissgiver, combi-weapon, meltabombs-150

ELITES
5 chosen, 2 pair of lightning claws, rhino -235

TROOPS
10 marines, melta, flamer, rhino-200

7 plague marines, melta, flamer, champ w/ powerfist -215

8 Noise marines, 8 sonic blasters-200


here is the second list

HQ
lord w/ MoN, Plaguebringer, -150

TROOPS
7 plague marines, melta, plasma gun, champ w/ power fist-220

7 plague marines, melta, flamer, champ w/ powerfist, rhino-245

8 Noise marines, 7 sonic blasters, blast master- 235

HEAVY SUPPORT
Defiler w/ Dccw instead of reaper autocannon


the idea is to use the chosen, in the first list, and the plague marines, with rhino in second, as a retinue for the lord
so comments much appreciated!

option 2 looks the most viable.

Is there a way you could shave points off the plague marine squads in order to give a rhino to the noise marines?

hrm.... i could take one marine and the melta gun out of the plague marines

Your second list is much better. One issue that you may have trouble with is that you have next to no anti-tank. Dont drop any meltas. If anything you want to give the plague marine squads two meltas each. The noise marines dont need a rhino because you have them kitted out for ranged fire and giving them a rhino would hamper that.

If you want to make your list a little more competitive drop your lord for a demon prince. At low point levels demon princes outperform lords in every respect. You may also want to drop your defiler for a couple of oblits, which would give you more fire power.

2nd list by far.

CC decked out Chosen is not a good option. Chosen are suicide squads, there to blast tanks with meltas. Nuff said!

I'm not a big fan of using obliterators, the ability to move and shoot is nice but, i prefer the less used units like havoks....
what if i replaced the defiler on the second list with a Predator w/lascannon turret, heavy bolter sponsons, and extra armor?
or 5 havoks w/ 4 missile launchers. i would just be 5 points over and could replace the plasma gun in the first plague marine squad with a meltagun to get an even 1000
