Chaos marines will never be tournament worthy until they get a new codex but damn does the new traitor legion supplement at least give them some flavor. List focuses on abusing the FNP (re-rolling ones) and Objective Secured on almost everything. Free FotLW helps controls costs. Let me know what you think.

Seems like a decent list. TBH I think the new chaos detachments have a lot of things going for them and will be top tier in competitive scene.

FnP fearless and relentless havocs are no joke.

The only thing I would consider changing, and its not even that big a deal is to replace the allied detachment with the nurgle incursion detachment.

take 6 units of nurglings, the same herald, and some plaguebearers. The ability for them to assault an unit and deny overwatch due to their special rule- then allow another one of your units to assault is pretty big. They also get the demonic incursion infest rule which in some ways is better than OS.
