I am entering a 1000pt tournie tomorrow and just wanted to know if this list is legal and any good. All feedback much appreciated

1 dp with wings and mark of khorne
2 obliterators
1 defiler
5 chosen with meltaguns
7 plague marines, aspiring champ with power weapon, rhino
7 plague marines, aspiring champ with power weapon

997pts

Legal yes, good no.

Little to no mobility, you've taken a Khorne Daemon Prince when a Nurgle one with warptime is far better in combat. PLague marines lack special weapons and thus any sort of threat level. Whilst the all melta toting Chosen have no way of getting into melta range without dying...

Give your chosen plasma guns and get rid of the power weapons. Add another rhino and in keeping with the theme of your army, use a Nurgle DP if at all. Icons and Greater Daemons go down a treat.

OK how about this:

dp with wings, mark of nurgle and warptime
2 oblits
1 defiler
7 plague marines asp champ with fist, melta gun and plasma gun, rhino
7 plague marines asp champ with fist, melta gun and plasma gun, rhino

Why have you mixed the special weapons in the plague marine squads? They have to fire at the same target so either way you are wasting a gun. Go duel melta and duel plasma and the list looks pretty solid now.

Thanks for the feedback. Which would you suggest i squad with 2 plasma and 1 with 2 melta or all melta, don't have enough points for all plasma.

Generally I'd go all melta but at 1000 points taking a squad of each isn't without merit due to lesser heavy armour and plasma can be used well against light armour.

So I'd probably go one of each.

Awesome thanks for your help
