First off, this will most likely be a fun army built on a theme, and any actual tournament viability would be a bonus. The idea of a footslogging army pushing forward behind siege tanks such as vindicators appeals to me, so I'm planning on having squads of 20 marines with MoN pushing up the board behind some possessed vindicators with havocs for heavy support. I would consider oblits, but since I want a pre-heresy feel, I probably won't field them without some sort of conversion being done. For support, I want to take an artillery battery from the guard codex.
My main concerns are a) how easy is fearless to get in the CSM codex? Not much sucks more than that blob squad you left to guard an objective running off the board, and b) are warpsmiths any good?
