I haven't had much of a chance to play my csm, but there's a 1750 tourney coming up and I'm planning on entering. My best chances with them in 5th ed were to get in close and shred in melee, but I'm not sure how well that will work in 6th. This is my list, if anyone has any change suggestions.

It's against rules to post PTs for items. Summarize the list PTs per squads.

Give berserker champ a p. Sword or claw. Use them more as your MEQ killers than your CSM guys. WS5 comes in handy

Get rid of p. Scourge on brutes, you're likely to not make them into CC for some time. The MM helps for armor especially while moving up to fight.

Sorry, the points were just for my benefit.

Thanks for the tips. If I free up the points, do you think the Angry Axe would be worth it for my dp?

Yes the axe is awesome for some big reasons.

Come into contact with a T5 warlord? Smash attack for S10 + daemon weapon bonuses ID him quick like if not EW.

Simply having more A is a huge boon if you get bogged down.
