It looks fast. Upgrade a combi bolter into a combi melta.

Lose the combat familiar on the lord. Hes got plenty of attacks with the jugger and rageaxe, and the familiars attacks are just S4 and no ap value.

Spend the points on dozerblades for the rhinos, or if your local meta doesnt use a lot of terrain maybe a couple of dirge casters.

Cool list though, I like the consistency of Khorne througout.

Definitely drop the combat familiar. The Juggerlord's damage output is already staggering. I also agree that you should put dirge casters on your rhinos. Something to keep in mind: you only have two scoring units. Personally I would drop the Maulerfiends and a Heldrake for more troops at 1500pts. Also, how do you plan on dealing with enemy armor?

Thanks for the suggestions guys, as for dealing with enemy armor there is nothing better than a maulerfiend that i've seen, but as you can see everyones got meltabombs just in case. i really like the maulerfiends and heldrakes but I have been considering dropping a heldrake and a few bikers for another squad of 10 csm, what do you think?
Also on upgrading combi bolter on rhinos or on bikes?
