After playing Kill Team for the past year and being away from full 40k for at least 2 years this is my first real stab at getting back into the game. I intended to go CSM codex pure Red Corsairs but I like the 1k Sons too and maybe this list won't suck. Non-competitive but I like winning more than losing. All comers list for a very mixed meta. Any feedback would be welcome.

IME, Flamer on Havoc Champion is useless, go with a cheaper weapon... Also Marines aren't that good, so running 300 points of marines... I don't think (not sure) you need that many just to run 2 chaincannon's an a squad.

RC have a 3 CP stratagem where they remove a unit of csm, and set it up again at full strength. Only 2 of 20 left ? Play the stratagem, and they are back to 20.

Indeed, altough i'd gone with 3 x 10 instead, due to morale. (or you pay genereic stratagem CP.)

Or, even better, go 6x10 with two battalions. Thats 19 CP. You can set up one unit at full strength every turn.
