Its a good start, although there are a few issues.

You dont have anywhere near enough anti-tank. A few autocannon and a handful of meltas isnt going to give you enough firepower to face any serious mech army.

You never need demonic possession on rhinos. Rhinos never need to be shooting, so ignoring crew shaken is pointless. Even extra armour is useless because the chances of getting crew stunned compared to any other result are still only 1/6. Not worth the points.

Those chosen dont have the speed to be able to threaten anything once they outflank. They really need to be in rhinoes. You can save some points by dropping the champs, because they dont really do much. Having both squads in rhinos makes them much better.

Regwon pretty much has it.

Let me first say that you're awesome, and that more people should make Khorne lists. I do have some suggestions.

First of all - the rhinos. Daemonic possession is completely unnecessary, as has been said. Secondly the Chosen units, will not be all that useful. Now, if you're determined to have a largely foot-slogging army with Marks of Khorne all around, there's not much to do about it (and you still get awesome-points in my book), but I would really advise you to switch those Chosen out. With the leftover points you could fill up your Berzerker squads to ten man ones, get an additional squad of them, and still have points left. Of course, this still doesn't solve the lack of anti-tank weaponry. Might I suggest a Land Raider or two? Your Berzerkers already excel at chopping up everything the AC/HBS predators are designed to take out, so I think that exchanging one or both of them for Land Raiders would be a good idea. That aside, Assault Vehicle is a sweet rule for Khornates, and Daemonic Possession is endlessly more justifiable on a Land Raider.

Also, though this is more of a personal thing - I think Power Fists are a waste of Furious Charge.

Kharn is fun.
Zerkers are ok, though I suggest one squad with a power weapon to mix things up.
As said Possession is not needed, at most: Extra armor, even that is questionable.

Chosen: do not work when you bling them out with only 5 dudes NOT in a rhino.
Get some more bodies, or get some rhinos. Take of ICON of Khorne and the champion upgrade, it does nothing useful for them.
Foot flamers just don’t work, while infiltrating rules are so strict that meltas won’t be that effective.

Hvy support is ok, but boring, very: Spiky Smurf like.
I would suggest 2 AC/LCs instead of the double dakka preds… anti-horde is not what you need.
You need the AC/LCs to start popping enemy transports early so that zerkers don’t have to waste a charge on a transport.

Thanks for the replies. You all basically said what I was thinking. I've submitted what I was originally thinking of doing. I believe this list is very flexible, I plan on getting the forgeworld Lord Zhufor so to upgrade to 2000 points I can add a Terminator Lord and put more bodies in the Havoc squads.

So, I am guessing the plan is for the 5 rhinos of dudes to rush forward accompanied by the Kharn Bus.(Kharn by himself in the LR)
Looks good. Khorne is a fun army.
Th Zhufor Model is awesome. If you opponent will let you, use his actual rules, he is pretty good.

Editing out the original list makes the comments reaalllly confusing to read.

The current rendition looks pretty good. I'd go with chosen instead of havocs, and power fists instead of power weapons.

Not to muck up a good list, but a suggestion if I may. I like that you are doing a power armor list cause it makes me think of heresy era WE but in case you wouldn't mind diverting from that you could exchange your HQ choices for winged princes. They are so good all around that they can crush armor and stomp infantry. DPs don't need lash or warptime to be effective, just a pair of wings.

I know, there awsome I've been running dual DP's for awhile. Kharn has to stay though, hes too full of awsomeness. I think I'm going to drop the terminators and throw in a prince. Not with the mark of Khorne though, I find its pointless on a prince.
