This is my first official list for 6th ed. i used to play heavily in 4th and a little in 5th, but i took a hiatus and ended up moving to the east coast(new jersey) having left all my models back in california. now im getting back into it and have a small chaos force out here until i can get a chance to go back home to cali and bring my models back out here to expand my forces!

this list is based solely on models i do actually have, save for the obliterators and an additional unit of plague zombies(which im thinking about buying from Mantic as thats just too good a deal to pass up), so let me know what you all think, i was possibly thinking about going the defiler route instead of oblits, but let me know what you think!

drop dimensoinal key it is a failure as an item because unless you can launch a turn 1 assalt all your reseves will arive before they get the bonus.
give VotlW to oblits they arnet fearless and will try to run away after first casualty
drop the sigil on the sorcerer and give him termiator armor, 3++ is a nice idea but you can get a 2+/4++ from the armor which is better and he can party with the terminators, the brand is wonderfull with termiators as horde units which will try mob them will evaporate when you whip it out.
may want a helldrake or 2 as at 2000 points their will be flyers and it is one of the best units in the new dex.

plasma pistols sadden me so give your bikers another proper gun, or if your going to use it replace the CC weapon on the chap with it so he can fire both pistols in the same shooting phase and still get +1 attack for 2 weapons

thanks for the tips! ill drop the dimensional key and give the oblits VotLW,

as i dont have another terminator model, i cant really give the sorc termie armor(once again this list is based on stuff i already have save a second zombie units and oblits). which is why i went for the sigil.

Plasma on bikers is a plasma GUN not pistol,(as that is what the ravenwing biker came with from the DV boxed set.)
as i do not own a helldrake, i cannot add any yet...might consider getting one soon, but i honestly dont like the model, and dont like the price.


but thank you so much for your input!
do you think the rest of the list is pretty solid though?
