The whole point of this army is to demonstrate to new players or players who have never played CSM the wonderful world of Chaos... just kidding. Hopefully at the end of the demonstration, they would like to buy the entire army lot. So the lists must be as competitive as can be working with the units I have left to sell.

The total army must equal 1850-2000 and can be easily split into 2 independent halves in to allow CSM vs CSM skirmish. So two groups of 925 or 1000. Possibly maybe a 3rd list if I have enough left over points. The reason for these 1000 pt armies is to demonstrate a 1 hour skirmish. Most of the new people have no army and so I need 1 army for them to learn and play while I play the other army.

I have remaining: (this list subject to change as I passively sell my units piece meal)
8 Khorne Berserkers painted red and gold trim
10 Khorne Berserkers base coated silver so you can put paint red over to reveal silver metal battle scars.
11 Khorne Berserkers painted silver and red by amateur
8 Thousand Sons Marines (I1 is the Aspiring Sorcerer with Force Sword) partially painted.
1 Mutated Chaos Champion with chainsword and bolt pistol and 2 extra arms partially painted in Iron Warriors color scheme.
3 Icon bearers. These are inter-changeable for Icons of : Wrath, Excess, Despair and Flame
Chaos lord Kranon and a Power Maul Chosen, Power Axe Chosen
2 Power Sword Champion. 2 Power fists Champion. Each with plasma pistols.
4 work in progress Champions ready to be outfitted with the weapon of your choice
1 Power Sword Iron Warrior champion. 1 Power Fist Iron Warrior Champion.
1 War Smith and a Jump Pack Raptor.
3 Possessed Marines
4 Lascannon Havocs
2 Heavy Bolter Havocs
12 Autocannon Havocs
5 Flamer CSM
10 Melta Gun CSM/Chosen
4 Plasma Gun CSM/Chosen
1 Daemon Prince
20 Blood Letters
1 Vindicator with Siege Shield
2 Predator Tanks magnetized to swap out autocannon turret, Lascannon Turrent, Heavy Bolter Sponson.
2 Rhinos (1 of which can be a makeshift Predator please see image with marines)
Marines not included.

I also have noise marine upgrade pack sealed, 15 jet packs, and other assorted bits. I do not want to open these and assemble them as they resell better NIB and NOS.

So hopefully the 1st list uses the 29 Khorne berserkers. I think this should take 2 rhinos to transport 2 squads of KB (The 3rd squad should run behind the rhinos) and 2 predators and 1 vindicator to provide armor saturation and speed. This list could possibly ally the DP and 20 blood letters to deep strike. This may or may not be the easiest to learn. I think I would be playing this as the target practice enemy while the opponent learns shooty.

The second could be more shooty in contrast to Khorne Berserkers. This army should use static gun lines. I have many chaos space marines carrying heavy weapons. So lets use havocs and double CAD for more havocs.

I am not sure what a 3rd list would be using the left over units. Maybe instead organize 250-500 pt additions.
