Just a couple of comments:

1: Your lord costs 197 points not 300.

2: Your chosen are very illegal. You cant give them that many weapon upgrades.

3: Lastly, why ever spend points on the Icon of Flame? Soul Blaze is worthless.

1: Your lord costs 197 points not 300.

yes my math was wrong

2: Your chosen are very illegal. You cant give them that many weapon upgrades.

Apparently i read this wrong i read it as each item IE bolt pistol, CC, bolter could be upgraded after rereading it after seeing your post ill fix this. simple miss read is all i now see its an option to upgrade one or the other.

3: Lastly, why ever spend points on the Icon of Flame? Soul Blaze is worthless.

it seemed decent for the heavy bolter but like i stated before i haven't actually played the game since 4th which was what several years ago?

seems with the errors ive made that frees up some points.

Beware daemonic possession. It eats a random model.
Swap chosen for termi to deliver termi lord.

so possibly drop possession? and what for terminator load out's meltas and chain fists? or?

Soem suggestions.

- I would swap the chosen to a terminator squad with combi weapons
- Drop the possesion for the above reason
- Drop the combat familiar, they dont do much at all
-Personally i would swap the hell brute to some Auto cannons.

for combi weapons should i stick with bolter / meltas or what not having played in awhile is making this army list hard to make since i have no clue to whats better then what nowadays

Combi melta works, Dont forget Ahriman can infiltrate D3 infantry. Combine this with a 4 man termi squad + black mace lord in a land raider and you have a nasty combo.

I do much the same with huron. Infiltrate said land raider 18" away, move 6" disembark 6", I prefer rapid fire plasma though. unload 10 plasma shots into something expensive! then sit there and let the enemy deal with it!

Suprising how much pain they can take and it lets your 1k sons move up un molested.

these are very good points and the thought of that makes me strangely excited lol now clearly im going to have access point to fill out this 2k army even after swamping things around a little should i use those point to fill out the thousand sons to 10 man squads or add another unit type? it would leave just shy of 300 points 274 if my math is right.

2 Troops is far too few for a 2k point game, i go on 1 troop per 500pts, 1k sons are massivley expensive so i wouldnt put any more in. For extra points i would.

Drop the 1ksons to 7 per squad inc the asp sorc
put in 2 10 man cultist squads to reserve and come on late game to hold home base
try and squeeze in a hell drake

or

Drop the 1ksons to 7 per squad inc the asp sorc
put in 2 x 10 man CSM squads w/ las cannons.

if you come up agains a deathwing army or alot of 2+ saves it will be a blood bath! not in your favor.
