Gods forbid that we have close to the same options as the loyalists.

This is simply not correct. The Dark Mechanicus is far more innovative than the Mechanicus due to not being held down by millenia of dogma.

The reason you don't see it reflected in the Chaos Marine books is GW suck at writing Chaos Marine books.

that they do, that they do

It doesn't make sense to me either and I've only perused the pages of that godawefully over-priced tome once and yeah I did this . However, as a delivery vehicle for your terminators, you don't have much choice. Pick the most strategic target you can (or the softest ), ram that puppy up their noses and disgorge it's contents right into the face of the enemy while chewing them up with the Raider's guns.

However, 230 points is quite a loss if it's destroyed

for 230 points, Why can't we customize them? :(

Base point value comparing to a SM LR I was told by a friend (Rather-point & laugh) they cost a grotesque amount in comparison =/

Is there any reason we can think why for a base cost of 230 points these things are, the way they are?

I would love to be able to throw some extra guns that aren't an additional Combi-Bolter and Havoc Launcher >.> lol

How much more do you want to add? Demolisher cannon and flakk missiles?

The Chaos Land Raider is just fine as it is.

Different weapon sponsons? Different front turret weapons? Variable carry capacity? No one is talking crazy stuff here, these are all things that have bits out there and rules in other books.
