I had a quick look over the Catachan one and I'm rather impressed with it. Not many changes but enough to bring them up to 7th Edition standards.

Honestly, the Cursed Founding rules aren't very good. They offer little benefits compared to just using Chapter Tactics and regular rules.
Automatically Appended Next Post:
Also went through the lost characters one. Most of the characters are either terrible (the Crimson Fist Captain only has two wounds...) or don't make sense (the Black Templars character gives Crusader, but I'm pretty sure Black Templars have Crusader as part of their Chapter Tactics).

Have some suggestions about Word Bearers one
1) may be Possessed champion should be able to be Greater Daemon Host
2) wouldn't Furies also be fluffy as part of the WB detachment?

Very interesting stuff, especially from a fluff POV. Does the input come from old white dwarf? Codexes? Books?
I had a look on the Night Lords and the rules are nice. Maybe more inspiration from NL HH special rules could give them extra flavour. I was surprised by the "abundance" of vehicule wargear. I thought most upgrades and special stuff would be focused on infantry. I feel it suits NL better.
Nice work anyway!

Cackling Chaos Conscript

Also regarding 1000sons,
1) 2nd and 4th points both say that only Tzeentch daemons allowed, 4th is redundant
2) am I wrong or power disciplines of possessed/chosen Psyker brotherhoods are not specified?
3) Thrall wizards are weird (  ), can they only be used by Sorcerers? Also their effect is similar to spell familiar, may be replace it with harnessing charges on 3+ or attempting same power multiple times per turn?
4) Chaos Lords should be able to become Sorcerer Lords with mastery level
BTW it's nice adaptation of 3.5 codex rules

These rules arent designed to be all powerful; rather they are intentionally softer than the codex equivalents (although in this day and age its not that hard  )
The lists are sourced from old Codexes/Supplements & White Dwarf articles. Most are as they first appeared with a change to bring them up to 7th, or a reworking of the rule that doesn't work in 7th while keeping in theme with balance in mind.
The Night Lords vehicle stuff is the same as the other chaos legions more or less from the 3.5 codex; so its not that unique only to them.
The Word Bearer suggestions have been taken on board, I was reluctant regarding the possessed as they have already been possessed by a daemon; however the champion could be possessed by a Greater Daemon that hasn't burst forth yet.
Re: The Thousand Sons; the 4th point was in reference to stuff in the CSM dex that have the Daemon rule; this has been clarified. You were right the disciplines were not specified; however the Mark of Tzeentch states that they may choose from the Discipline of Change. Ive added it in to be more clear. Thrall Wizards have in their rules that they may only be taken by Psykers. Ive changed their rule to give effectively +1 on the Warp Charge and +1 on the deny attempt. I considered using the Thrall after rolling the dice, but I thought that too powerful even when I incresed the points to 10 per model. Finally, I allowed Chaos Lords to gain Mastery Levels, but restricting them to Change & Pyromancy - mainly to show there is a difference between Chaos Sorcerers & lords.
