Rate away. Suggestions are encouraged! I know it wont win the Grand Prize, but is there anything I should try differently? The only Daemon allies I can bring would be a GUO and Daemonettes but I'm not trying to use Allies if that's the suggestion...

Anything to make this list more effective?

Typhus DS with the Oblits.

On Obj games the Zombies sit in the far end hiding, PM move out towards the mid/enemy Objectives. Birds try to burn things off enemy Obj, Typhus DS with 2 Oblits, the others move up and shoot with Rhinos. Spawn travel in between Rhinos and assault whatever looks intimidating.

It looks pretty good dude, I'm quite a fan!

Personally I can't seem to get chaos spawn to work for me, but there's a strong possibility I'm just using them wrong. I think if you put too many more zombies in then you'll struggle with LOS blocking terrain. The only issue you might have is the rhinos giving up first blood quite easily.

My only other concern is typhus in reserve, he might take a while to turn up, and along with the hell-turkeys thats a LOT of points not on the board. Just some food for thought though, otherwise I really like the list.

The Twilight Zone

Looks solid, and a lot of fun.

Zombies can die to the last man, and between FNP and cover, they will be hard to shift. With fearless, you can lose all but 1 while keeping them on an objective, and on the table.

I know VotLW is important for oblits, but if you dropped it you could afford six more zombies, for more scoring oomph. Alternatively, keep veterans and get combi bolters on your rhinos. Yes, they will probably die. Yes, they will be snap shooting one and/or both, but the turns they don't when they survive they add that much more dakka to things. Another option would be a combi plasma on a plague champ. Melta bombs are iffy, as you have the knife to deal with MC's and Krak grenades handle the rear armor of most tanks. Unless you are in dead fear of land raiders, you could drop them so you could have a combi plasma on your second plague champ.

I agree about not deep striking typhus, at least, not always. Some of the nurgle powers are fantastic(weapon virus) so he could roll with your spawn or a huge zombie blob causing havoc.
