Hey im new in 40k and i made a 1000 points list
i just wanna know if its ok for friendly games.

troops: plauge marines*8
ac+rhino+2 melta
254p

KB*8
sc+pf+rhino
243

fast attack: raptors*5
2 melta
120p

heavey:
1 obliti
75p

1 defiler
150p

all army 997p
so if you can help me and tell if this list worth something

my main opp are Eldars/dark eldars/marines/orcs

This list looks a little munchkin-ish for friendly games, generally speaking you probably want to limit yourself to multiple units dedicated to one or two Chaos Gods to stay true to the background. As far as competitive lists go, drop the Raptors and Berzerkers for more Plague Marines and you're pretty much there.

For a new guy to chaos and 40k, you seem to have a better base than 90% of the folks who put up their first list.

If your going to do lash, you need template/marker weapons to drop on units you lash up. That Defiler could be 2 more Oblits. If you have 3 Oblits, put one in every heavy slot. You do this due to the Morale factors (as every non-Fearless chaos unit has to deal with). Drop the Raptors. Drop down the number of troops down to 5-7 to free up more points. If your not doing Greater Demons or Fists, don't take champs. Chaos works best with 2 of everything, so keep that in mind.

End of the day, Eldar/Dark Eldar will outmanuver you and probably outshoot you. Ork will attempt to steam roll you, so with those tactics in mind you can set yourself up in a defensive posistion to fire back. If you have the points, upgrade your Rhinos with Havoc Launchers or Combi-meltas and remember they can shoot at a different target than the troops inside. For 50pts, a Havoc Rhino can throw out a Str 4 Marker to do damage to all of your foes due to their crappy armor. Don't expect the Eldar/Dark Eldar to let your Rhinos live long, so make sure your close to cover starting out or move next to it for when they do pop your rhino.

OK, after that... friends don't lash friends. It is a good way to piss off your friends to not enjoy playing against you, and thus with you. Don't worry, Lash is not as great as it use to be due to the fact it doesn't work against vehicles, but most 'friend' games tend to be light on vehicles due to the cost of them.

Not really friendly apart from the zerkers instead of more oblits, however I'm not one to judge I tend to run 2 winged lash princes and 2 vindicators at 750 and 1000

If your going for friendly why not run KHARN!!! he is a barrel of laughs just like a daemon weapon of khrone, you hate it when you roll ones but otherwise

I like your list! With Chaos, you are handy-capped enough so Kharne is totally a personal call.

If you get Kharne...
Take the 10pts saved and 5 of those 7 left-over points to get a Havoc launcher on your plasma PMs.
You can also drop a Zerker for two combi-meltas for the other two Rhinos. More AT is never a bad thing.

If you keep the DP...
If you drop 1 Zerker, you can get two Combo-meltas on the two attacking Rhinos and a TLed bolter on the Plasma Marines or a Melta on the plasma PMs and a TLed bolter on the melta PMs.

I also got in my colloction a Predator,15 reguler CSM, another lord and 5 possessed
should i use one of them?

Pred is not a bad choice in Chaos. Alot just leave the AC turret and LC sponsons.

Possessed kinda blow. CSMs are eh because they are not fearless so they have to make Morale saves. Lord is ok, but DP is better due to the suck of most of the Demon weapons.

I think your list is fine and adding anything like what you mentioned would change the entire list. Having 3 troops and decent support with a machine of a DP is pretty dang good at that point level for Chaos. Usally your lucky to have 1 troop per 500pts, so your doing good there.
