I'll be entering a tournament in a week to celebrate the new chaos codex, and I've been playing around with several list, however here are my two most solid options and I'd would like to have your help deciding which one should I take for the tournament or if I should just work on another entirely different list.



1st list (Terminator's List)

HQ (309pts)

Chaos Lord - Blight Grenades, Chain Fist, Lightning claw, Mark of Nurgle, Terminator Armor, Veteran of the Long War
Chaos Sorcerer - Combi-melta, Mastery lvl (3), Terminator Armor, Veteran of the Long War

10 Chaos Space Marines - Champion w/Power Fist, Extra Close Combat Weapons, 2x Plasma Gun, Veterans of the Long War
7 Plague Marines - Champion w/Combi-Melta & Power Fist, 2x Plasmaguns

8 Chaos Bikers - Mark of Nurgle, Champion w/Power Fist, 2x Plasmagun, Veterans of the Long War

Heavy (204pts)

8 Chaos Havocs - Champion w/Melta-bombs & Power Weapon, 1x Autocannon, 2x Flakk ML, 1x Heavy Bolter

Fortification (100pts)

Aegis Defence Lines - Quad-gun

Total: 2000 pts

Objective of the list: Hold your half of the table and any objective within while the termies & bikers try to erase your enemy side or at least stay around to contest their objectives







2nd list (Warp Talons)

HQ (170pts)

Chaos Lord - Blight Grenades, Jump Pack, Lightning Claw, Mark of Nurgle, Power Fist, Sigil of Corruption, Veteran of the Long War

Elites (230pts)

Helbrute - Multi-melta & Power Fits
Helbrute - Plasma Cannon & Power Scourge

Troops (719pts)

10 Chaos Space Marines - Champion w/Power Fist, Extra Close Combat Weapons, 2x Plasma Gun, Veterans of the Long War
10 Chaos Space Marines - Champion w/Melta-bombs & Power weapon, Extra Close Combat Weapons, 2x Plasma Gun, Veterans of the Long War
7 Plague Marines - Champion w/Power Fist & Combi-melta, 2x Plasma gun, Rhino w/extra armor

Fast (743pts)

8 Chaos Bikers -Champion w/Power Fist, 2x Plasmagun, Veterans of the Long War
10 Warp Talons - Mark of Nurgle, Veterans of the Long War
Heldrake - Baleflamer

Heavy (135pts)

Maulerfiend - Two sets of Lasher tendrils


Total 2000 pts



Objective: A little more offensive than the first one, still the idea is to hold your side of the table. I'm hoping my opponent has to decide between firing the 3 walkers (one of which moves 12"), the Plague's rhino and the bikers/Warptalons which are both T5 and have invul/cover. Hopefully the Warp Talons manage to get to the other side and start killing only units holding the objectives on their side staying away from Termies or any other Sv2 unit.
