So the strategy is fairly obvious, infiltrate flexibly with the cultists and zerkers. Set up the noise marines, and run the Land Raider up, buffed with the sorcerer and chaos hellwright. CSM ride in the land raider for cleanup as needed.

If the land Raider isn't a big enough threat I could swap out the sorcerer and Raider for a Brass Scorpion. Perhaps also change up a CSM batallion in favor of some bloodletters fir a real fluffy khorne list.

Thoughts?

1 issue, and it's a pain in the ass, that only schticklers will pick out (from experience). Lord Arkos only gives his bonus to 'The Faithless' units. Meaning, if you want to benefit from him, you have to run a Renegade Chapters detachment of Faithless with him, meaning they can't infiltrate or gain Alpha Legion Traits. He can be part of an Alpha Legion detachment and keep things kosher, but he won't give anyone his aura. Stupid and should be FAQ'd as 'The Faithless' are just an Alpha Legion warband, but be prepared for someone to bring that up as currently, it is the RAW, however I firmly believe it should be treated as RAI. Just a heads up, as it's something I've run into myself. Other than that, like the list, I think it has a lot of potential!

Thanks! Good to know, his extra CP, and extra -1 to hit plus free infiltrating still make him worth it to me, I think.

Someone suggested x2 Oblits or a leviathan butcher cannon dred would be better than noise marines. Thoughts on that?
