I'll be playing a Black Legion (double force org main detachment) using the BL Supplement.

I am aiming for a cool fun Black Legion theme that can compliment my friend's Chaos Space Marines (double force allied detachment)

And raise a bit of hell (pun intended) against our friend's combined Raven Guard and Imperial Guard team up.

I'm very interested in hearing suggestions, but please do follow these guidelines:

1. Only models (weapons NON-swappable) from the inventory list posted here
2. Theme is not absolute but certainly a big bonus for being taken into consideration.
3. My entire main detachment must be using the Black Legion Supplement as that is my selected force.

My first choice list is all about the BL theme, taking a lord (or sorcerer) of each of the chaos gods, as well as a unit of chosen (or terminators) marked to run around with the HQ. Also including a unit of CSM that will camp back field on the defense line with meltas to pop tough foes like an Iron Clad dread or a land raider rushing my lines. And of course 2 heldrakes to join up with my buddies' own heldrake for air domination.

Yay!

You seem to have a lot of havocs, terminators, and chaos lords, so lets work with those.

For HQs, lets take abbaddon and a chaos lord. Look at the lex page http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Black_Legion?file=BL_vs._Dark_Angels_13th_Black_Crusade.png
and try to match up one of the notable members with a chaos lord you have for fluffy goodness

lets say:

Abby and 5 terminators
sorcerer lord in terminator armor with 5 terminators

the heldrakes

about 500 points of troops

2 squads of havocs with 4 flakk MLs
1 squad of havocs with 4 heavy bolters

your havocs will absolutely tear up the guard. if you really want to, take 3 squads of heavy bolters...against guardsmen those 36 heavy bolter shots will average 16 dead guardsman per turn! wow!

Sounds like it will be a fun game!
