Hey so I just wanted thoughts on my very testy-replica 1456 pt list which I just thought up of, I do want to get it up to 1500-1850 points but I just wanted to see what this list looks like.
World Eater Detachment
Core: Chaos Warband.
Chaos lord (Axe of Blind Fury, Sigil of Corruption).
2 Squads of Chaos Space Marines (CCW and Bolt Pistols, 10 guys in each squad).
2 Squads of Chosen (5 meltaguns) in 2 rhinos (Dirge Castors).
1 Squad of Bikers.
1 Squad of Havocs (4 flamers).
Auxillary: Raptor Talon
Chaos Lord (Gorefather, Jump Pack).
3 Squads of Raptors (2 Meltaguns).

Every model has MoK.
Points: 1456

The devastator squad and chaos space marine squads are pretty much the khorne beserkers, get to the enemy and kill them all!
The chosen in the rhinos are there for anti-tank and "elite" enemy stabbing guys.
The bikes are for getting objectives that we need, and they can be used wherever I am struggling or I need something dead.
The raptors are there to kill key threats after deep-striking.
The Chaos Lords are there to be cheap warriors which kill very good.

So what do you think? Looking back I may have went a bit over-board with meltaguns and I may not need the rhinos for the chosen.
I would also love ideas of how to expand, I was thinking a The Lost and The Damned formation to either give cover to my khorne marines or for overwatch bait while charging (and lets be honest, 41 cultist attacks on charge with re-rollable hits is funny as hell) but then I thought that they dont get to move up at the start so might not actually be as helpfull, idk I love any thoughts or comments!

Chaos lords are not cheap warriors if you give them relics that cost more than a PF. I think you should drop the AOBF (or the gorefather) for the talisman, think about putting your chaos lord on bike with the chaos bikers since you get more bang. 2 squads of chosen with 5 meltas is too much. You have one rhino that has 2 firing points, i think you should only run 2 meltas and put the spare meltas in your csm squads that way you dont lose all your melta by having your chosen squad nuked. 4 flamers might also be too many, considering the fact that on an average 2d6 you get 7" plus your flamers that wont be enough. I suggest giving raptors flamers and havocs, meltas. If you have points left over i suggest investing in some melta bombs or power weapons. GL

Thanks!
Where do I find the rules of the rhino firepoints?

I believe the main rulebook or the chaos codex. General idea is that there are two hatches on the Rhino, those act as firing points. Basically instead of your marines sitting inside the rhino 2 of them pop out and fire their guns.

Aahh ok thanks, I guess it is better to spread out the special weapons, but wont that recquire them to spend points on buying CCW?

When you pay for special weapons they replace CCW. SO you have to pay extra if you want that extra attack. But you are paying for CCW regardless so there is no extra cost, just reorganization.

No im not paying for CCW, you can swap out your boltgun for a CCW for free.
