Also, any suggestion you think can improve either list please suggest, i'm all ears in what you think will help either list wreck face.

Please, please comment/suggest/criticize!!

No drakes? No AA?

You should have all characters in a spawn unit and then take a drake or 2 for the AA vector strike and or auto cannons.

Both are meant to be in assault turn 2, I can live with no AA. Not like chaos have amazing AA units anyway (I dont have sicarains or hell blades ATM). I 'll take the risk, giving the outcome a lot more CC units that wreck face. How much air can 1500 bring anyway, and I've seen less and less air, except for tyranids haha.

Do you prefer 1 list over the other btw??

More suggestions/comments please! ;D
