Hi guys !

I am gonna play against necrons this week, and for a long time I wish to play a Khornish list. I would like to have your opinion (is it playable ?) on the following. This is a CSM army with deamons as allies :

HQ :
- Kharn
- Bloodthirster

Elite :
- 5 terminators : 1 Heavy flamer, 2 combi-flamer, MOK, in a Land Raider

Troops :
- 10 bersekers, in a rhino
- 9 bersekers, with Kharn in a Land Raider
- 10 bloodletters
- 10 bloodletters

Fast attack :
- 5 raptors, 2 meltas, combi melta for the champion, MOK
- 5 raptors, 2 meltas, MOK

Your list is decent, but I can think of a few things to critique. First of all, you really don't need the combi-flamers in the terminator squad, replace them with pairs of lightning claws, give one dude a power maul and the dude with the heavy flamer a chainfist. Do what you wish with the champ. Another thing to see is the Berzerkers in a METAL BAWKS. It's gonna get popped and the Berzerkers will die not in a blaze of glory, but crying for their mothers. Replace them with an MoK squad of CSM with extra CCWs and the Icon of Wrath; SOOOO many attacks. In fact, give the Icon of Wrath to anything possible if points allow. Otherwise, this looks like fun and I hope you do well with it.

I'd suggest finding the points to put both squads of zerkers in land raiders

Only take the amount of bloodletters you have to, 10. I've not heard of a game where they did well.

I'd also suggest having at least 2 FMCs, you can never take just 1, because it will die and you'll be sad.

Thanks guys. Gonna put the 2 squads of zekers in the 2 land raiders. I will equip the termies with lighting claws and play them like a real Khorne player : Deep Strike. Bloodletters are cheap and would help to divert nécrons fire power from the other units ( I hope so )

I agree with changerofways (though he's tzeentchian....)

I have my 1950 World Eater list posted and so far it has been pretty successful against all armies. i will be in a tournament this sat to really put them through the grinder. I find that the demons are a good small unit to where people ingnore or spend firepower on them that couldve gone somewhere else better. Besides deep strike to an objective in the back field or even just to achieve linebreaker will free up the part of your army that actually does the killing to do what it does best. Both my FMC have an exalted reward in the hopes to roll the one where you have a chance to spawn more demons by killing enough Bloodthirster is better by far than demon prince but i have one of each, demon prince becomes a heavy support here so he can capture objectives in the scenario allowing Heavy Supports to capture

And Kharn is a serious killer just stay away from storm shield/thunder hammer terminator squads...he does not have eternal warrior, his only weakness...
