Hi people. I'm trying to use the new TH book to make a semi-competitve list (being a Chaos player, I'm more used to fun list, but now I want to try something different). What do you think of the following ?

New Roster (1500pts)
Chaos Space Marines: Codex (2012) (Combined Arms Detachment)
(No Category)
Force Options (Supplement options here)
Crimson Slaughter

HQ

Chaos Lord: Bike, Burning Brand of Skalanthrax, Daemonheart, Mark of Nurgle, Power Sword, Sigil of corruption

Sorcerer: Additional Mastery Level, Bike, Mark of Nurgle,

Troops

Chaos Cultists x10

Chaos Cultists x10

Fast Attack


Chaos Bikers x5: Mark of Nurgle, 2x Meltagun, Melta Bombs

Chaos Spawn x5 : Mark of Nurgle

Heavy Support

Chaos Predators x3: Autocannon x3, Dirge Caster x3, Lascannons sponson x3

Chaos Vindicators x3 : Dirge caster x3

I feel like the Dirgecasters are wasted on the predators and Vindicators. Spell familiars are pretty much mandatory on sorcerers. I would run him unmarked, give him a familiar and another mastery level. I would also try to get a sigil or at least an aura of dark glory on him.
