Hi guys I have recently returned to the world of 40k after a gap of a few years. I think I will probably get more out of the game now I am 22 than when I was 15 :-) Apart from anything I can now afford to fund such an expensive habit properly...
I collected at least 2k points of Necrons, imperial guard and tyranids and I feel like a change so after the Dark Vengeance I bought I am going to play Chaos.
I added some terminators, a squad of marines and a defiler to it and seem to do reasonably well playing my brother's marines.
Saying that, I have spent the last few days writing what I think is a solid 2k list. Open to suggestions and criticism or I wouldn't post this so don't hold back guys :-)

Nurgle daemon Prince, wings, blind axe, mutation
Chaos Lord, terminator armor, combi bolter, nurgle, mutation
4x5 plague marines, 3 with plasma, 1 with melta, all mutations
2x3 obliterators
5 havocs, rocket launchers
2 helldrakes, baleflamers

For starters the Prince is for a bit of fun, I am aware of how costly they are. Are my marine squads too small? Have I put in too much heavy? Opted for no transports, they seem too fragile, worth the risk? Maybe take something out and add a couple more plague marines to each squad? People seem to be anti-gift of mutation but I think it's cool, adds a more random element.
Constructive feedback would be appreciated :-)
