Funny thing is, both these lists are OBLITERATED by the new codex when it hits. All those min CSM squads lose their heavy weapons - or become 3x (or 1x) 10-man squads with las/plas; the raptors lose 3x flamers (if not 2x as well); you can still take 8 oblits, but they're heavies now, so compete with the defilers, of which you can only take 3 and which lose their indirect fire. The possessed get way random (though I think still marked), and the HQs get boosted far beyond what you have here, as powered weapons and aura saves are mandatory.
So there.
On the lists themselves, yep, pretty irritating but not unbeatable. The first list would be harder than the second, with all those las/plas to deal with in addition to eradicating the possessed, but the limited combat capacity could hurt. The second one is indeed some IW cheese, but you can't hide all those defilers and they still die to one shot. Same goes for oblits, with instant death.
