I'm gonna be honest, I think you should drop the hydras. Russ's are much better, or at least seem like it to me.

The Hydras only take up 200 points, and do some AA work. They don't take the place of any Russes.

End Game......pah this is Epic!

I've added a fair bit more since that photograph was taken in 2013. Not really planning to get more stuff from it. Well after my 3 Crushers arrive anyway!

"But me no buts! Our comrades get hurt. Our friends die. Falkenburg is a knight who swore an oath to serve the church and to defend the weak. He'd be the first to tell you to stop puling and start planning. Because what we are doing-at risk to ourselves-is what we have sworn to do. The West relies on us. It is a risk we take with pride. It is an oath we honour. Even when some soft southern burgher mutters about us, we know the reason he sleeps soft and comfortable, why his wife is able to complain about the price of cabbages as her most serious problem and why his children dare to throw dung and yell "Knot" when we pass. It's because we are what we are. For all our faults we stand for law and light.

Instead of talking about some silly no-use language , let's go to comment a list.

I know, dummy! I'm asking if there is a way to add normal CSM to the retinue. Anyways, here's what I've written up. Thank malal for the armyforge list builder.

(2000 Points)

Retinue
- 8x Chaos Space Marines
- Daemon Prince (Supreme Commander) (Winged)
- 4x Rhino
- Chaos Champion
- 3x Chaos Vindicator

Chaos Terminators
- 4x Chaos Terminators
- Daemon Prince (Winged)
- 4x Chaos Land Raider

Armoured Company
- 4x Chaos Predator
- 3x Defiler
- 3x Chaos Vindicator

Feral Titan

I think the titan is more appropriate in this point scale. I dunno. Titans are cool and the Feral is pretty cheap.

I note two things. Only 4 activations and no air defence. It might be better idea to drop the Prince from Terminators and move the Land Raiders to their own formation. This would allow them to be teleported which is a good method for them. For airdefence if you can get points for Hell Blades or Obliterators (for Terminators). Also Defilers will slow the Predators down, so that is something to consider, although with terrain they might be able to take short cuts which Predators can't. However as I always say, get a game going and see how it goes ,

I completely forgot about teleportations! The land raiders were there for transport.
Obliterators seem a bit underwhelming for their price tag. What's their role?

Obliterators are the only ground AA in the list. Though they do have FF2+ so they are good at that too.

Oh my god how have I not seen any of these AA issues! Ok so that explains their extreme pricyness! About how many should I have? Also, do you think the Feral is a good choice for 2k points or nah?

AA is a necessity in Epic as airpower is not only annoying it can do some serous damage as well. Even some cheap and nasty AA can work well due to the automatic blast marker it will inflict.

 LeCacty wrote:
gak. That's a lot of tanks.


Just keep them liberally dosed with blast markers and they can't really do much. Leman Russ are really (really) nasty if left alone but once you start hitting them their effectiveness really declines, even if you don't kill that many (which you probably won't be).

I think this is better. I removed the feral because he's a bit underwhelming for the price and threw in some hell blades because VROOOOOOOOOOOOOM!


Retinue
- 8x Chaos Space Marines
- Daemon Prince (Supreme Commander) (Winged)
- 4x Rhino
- 3x Chaos Vindicator

Chaos Terminators
- 6x Chaos Terminator
- Chaos Lord
- 3x Obliterator

Armoured Company
- 4x Chaos Predator
- 3x Chaos Vindicator

Armoured Company
- 5x Chaos Predator
- 3x Chaos Vindicator

Hell Blades
- 3x Hell Blade Fighters


I think vindicators are pretty sweet stat wise, and aren't too expensive. Also, there's an extra predator in the second armoured company to make the list a flat 2k. I'm going to read through the daemon pool rules and see if I want to incorporate that. Also, there's a link in my sig to my plog for this army,so if you want to, you can check it out. I found bases

On a rather unrelated note: Are proxies allowed at tournaments? I would assume so, seeing as there is no official support anymore, but I just had that thought. The army is coming along. I swear!

You've left of the Deamon Princes wings. I would hesitate to include a Deamon Prince in a mechanised retinue simply because he will be the only infantry target for the first turn or 2 so he could get focused fairly easily. As he can teleport a better place for him would be with your Termies.

Thanks man!
Well, I kinda have to stick with rhinos because CRASSIUS ARMORED ASSAULT TRANSPORTS aren't in the Black Legion list.
But rhinos are amazing? U wot? They're just a regular transport with small arms. Not even any good ranged weaponry. Vindicators though.... Mmmmmmmmmmmm

Ever seen a Kung Fu Rhino kill a Brass Scorpion in close combat? That's how it works!
