I am fiddling with the H&R index.
I was thinking about using them to pump lots of bodies and shots supporting a small traitor assault group.
I'd like to hear what do you think about this stuff:

At 1500 i am planning to bring a Brigade (+3cp)

Malefic Lord

Chaos Lord on Bike
Fist,
(171)

30 Renegade Cultists
30 Renegade Cultists
10 Renegade Cultists

(350)

Enforcer
Enforcer

5 Marauder
stalkers, 2 plasma gun


5 Marauder
stalkers, 2 plasmagun

10 Khorne Zerkers
icon, p. fist
(338)

Rhino
c. melta
(89)

Basilisk
h. bolter

3 Quad launchers
6 artillery crew

Predator
full laser

(553)

its 1501...

Zerkers+lord should be a nice distraction carnifex while cultists walk up the board and heavy support maul the enemy. Basilisk as jack of all trades supporting predator for antitank or quad launchers vs hordes. Stalker Marauders with plasma are a cheap unit that in cover is better than chaos marines. They are though to deal but cannot be ignored thanks to 2 BS3 plasmaguns each. Malefic lord is there as cheap hq.

I wanted to add some assault element like some spawns and an helbrute but that would diminish the shooting output.
Do you have any suggestion?

Another take at the list, with a minimal renegade presence in first list. I'm taking one of these lists on saturday gaming morning! So, i'd like some ideas

Vanguard detachment-

Sorceror (smite, warp speed prescience)
plasmapistol, force stave

10 noise marines
icon of excess, power sword, 10 blasters

5 noise marines
5 blasters

5 noise marines
5 blasters

Rhino, combibolter

Vanguard detachment 2-

Daemon Prince (smite, warp gaze)
dual claws, warp bolter

5 Berzerkers
chainaxe+chainsword, icon, powerfist

5 Berzerkers
chainaxe+chainsword, icon, powerfist

Rhinco, c.bolter

5 Marauders (Stalkers)
2 sniper rifles

5 Havocs
4 lascannons

Fortification-

Chaos Bastion, 4 heavy bolters

Total 1500

7 drops for a decent chance of getting first turn.
Long range support is the weak spot, with only 4 heavy bolters and havocs.
Assault should be covered with 20 noise marines and 10 zerkers...

Another variant has.:

Vanguard detachment-

Sorceror (smite, warp speed prescience)
plasmapistol, force stave

10 noise marines
icon of excess, power sword, 10 blasters

5 Berzerkers
chainaxe+chainsword, icon, powerfist

5 Berzerkers
chainaxe+chainsword, icon, powerfist

Rhinco, c.bolter

Spearhead detachment 2-

Daemon Prince (smite, warp gaze)
dual claws, warp bolter

5 Havocs
4 lascannons

5 Havocs
4 autocannons

5 Havocs
2 missile launcher
1 lascannon
1 autocannon

Fortification-

Chaos Bastion, 4 heavy bolters

Total 1500

This secnd list has a lot more firepower but 1 less melee treath. Wich one do you prefere? Any suggestions?
