Hi all ! So I have a friend of mine who's going to give me the following:

30x CSM
16x Khorne Berzerkers
10x Possessed
2x Chaos Rhinos

So what should I add to this to do an average 1-1,5k list ?
Let me be clear on one point: I ain't asking you to make me a list (I'm a big boy for that ^^).
I just want to know what you feel would be necessary to go along these items.
I think a Land Raider would be good for the Berzerkers. Maybe add a Termi Lord with MoK with them in it ? Like that KB would be regular troops. ANother rhino would be useful for the CSM of course.
But then ? What do you recommend me ?
Thx for everyone advice !

A Land Raider with a Lord with the Berserkers would definitely be a good bet. It would kind of put all your eggs in one basket though, and it would draw most of the high strength fire in your opponent's army. I've also found that putting a character (like a sorcerer) in a big mob of Marines or Cultists works fairly well, but I'm not in a super competitive environment. What are the Marines and Berserkers armed with?

Marines would have the 2 special weapon load. I think meltaguns would be useful. KB would come generic with the champion having a PW I guess. Of course, I would take the formidable Icon of Wrath to reroll charges.

IMO get Kharn. Take him in a LR and give a blob of IIRC 15 KB. Having a Heldrake never hurt.

I'd say the key thing that's lacking is long-range anti-tank fire. I'm of the 'paranoid' list-building school - I always ask myself whether I can handle a land raider or large MC if required.

Given this, obliterators, havocs or a predator would be obvious choices to add to your force...
