As the title states, 2000 points of Iron Warriors. Basic thought is to provide easy access the BS 2+ shooting with re-rolls. The las cannon havocs should be able to knock down something important turn one and then the obliterators and terminators drop in with the demon prince for the decisive blow. The hellbrute is a cheap counter charge unit. The only thing I’m unsure of is the master of possession. I feel like he might not be mobile enough to support the obliterators since cursed earth is only for 6”.

I like it, finally a Csm list with no soup nor FW bs!
Just a couple of feedbacks:
Drop the Csm squad and field 3x10 cultists, so you min max and the Csm are too fragile compared to the rest
Drop the helbrute, is the only vehicle, it will get laser first turn, go with elite infantry, way better for target saturation etc. If you want counter charge go DP, Possessed or Plague Marines.
With the point spared field more havocs to capitalize on the trait, auto and chaincannons, bolsters are garbage.
Try to maximise a singole unit of terminators to buff betTer
