hi guys, this is going to be my unbound list for a tourney with my mates up at WHW i dont have the best of luk so hoping a dirty list wil help

HQ,

sorcerer, termie armour mastery lvl 2 (has to roll on damonolgy for 2cnd fire raptor and telepathy for fingers crossed invisible) 110

Elites

6 plague marines, 2 plasma guns, rhino 209

6 plague marines, 2 meltaguns, rhino 199

6 plague marines, 2 meltaguns, rhino 199

Heavy support

fire raptor, reaper batteries 210

fire raptor, reaper batteries 210

Vindicator, possesion, combi bolter 140

Vindicator, possesion, combi bolter 140

5 havocs 4 autocannons 115

fortifications

Void shield generator 2 extra void shields 100

LOW

Chaos typhon siege tank, ceramite plating 370

so takes me 2002 points so i have to find 2 points from somewhere, i'm pretty happy with this list as the siege tank and vindicators will sit inside the void shield and the plague marines will hunt anything big and scary/objectives. any pointers?

Looks fine to me. You can save 5 points taking one of the cheap legacys on the vindicators which include daemonic possession anyway.

The fluffer in me would prefer a warpsmith to the sorceror

My fluffy pen died as soon as i wrote down plague marines.... and the warpsmith doesnt bring what i need it too sadly :(

Your plague marines are not troops, they are elites.

The list is unbound so there is no real distinction (no objective secured, no compulsary troops etc)

Hmm.

I think that the lord tax is normally worth it. But yeah thats a lot of heavy support.

Tho... do you need a technomacer if you are unbound?

Yawn I saw iron warriors and got excited cause they are my favorite legion. Then I saw plague marines. I should know better

Some TO's might not let it fly if you lable elite choices as troops, as there are some mechanics in the game that it could influence, even in an unbound army.

Just swap out pm for regular csm if you dont want to pay nurgle lord tax.

i would say yes as the reason isnt to give you extra of something its a different special rule.
