well, since trying is the first step towards failing... here's my first attempt of turning my collection into something competitive

HQ:
165 pt lucius (I kind of like how his kit synergises with the champion of chaos rule, but I don't know, maybe a straight slaanesh HQ?)

troops:

183 pt . 8x noise marines, full Sonic Blasters , doom siren, termic bomb, cc weapon
40 pt - rihno with Dozer Blade

40 pt - rihno with Dozer Blade

90pt - naked 15 cultists

fast attack

170 - 1 helldrake

heavy

146 - 2 obliterators with VOTLW

elite

Mayhem Pack (345pts)

····Helbrute [Multi-melta] Power fist [extra bolter]
····Helbrute [Multi-melta] Power fist [extra bolter]
····Helbrute [Multi-melta] that strange power fist that reduces enemies ability to fight back (can'tremember the inglish name, it costs 10 pts) [extra bolter]


total 1498

this list should play out like this:
2 noise marines squad on rihno will try to crush one side of the enemy lines, the obliterators will hunt down the vehicles, the cultist will hold objectives. Hellbrute should try to brigh them pain acting as "diversion". the helldrake is the helldrake...

I'd like to play noise marines in a way or the other, the set up for them tho may vary heavily
if you have any kind of suggestion just let me know!!!!!

Seems like a solid list to me

Wild thought here, but why not get some Chaos Sorcerers with Biomancy and try to roll for endurance? Noise Marines are great, but Noise Marines with Eternal Warrior, Feel No Pain and Relentless are just incredible.

You could do this by dropping the Heldrake and Lucius, getting a CL with MoS, and splitting off the force into 2 CADs then taking 3 Lvl 2 Sorcerers.

That's 6 chances to get Endurance, and, even if it doesn't work out, the other powers are not too shabby.

i'm ok with getting rid of lucius, but I think the helldrake is way to strong at the moment so I would be more carefull about leaving it on the banch.

I like the idea of the sorcerer's tho, I also noticed that in the slaanesh psionic powers there are pretty strong spells. I might look into it a little more

Yeah, I can see why that would be a hard call.

My logic there is how does about 3 rounds of Heldrake compare with 3 rounds of NMs with full sonics and true grit? That's 42 shots each turn that ignore cover.

I am not sure which would be better. Maybe the Heldrake if you are concerned with mobility.
