Fluttering Firewyrm of Tzeentch




So I have a game against an ork player next monday, apparently he plays a "bit of everything" list and my only current ork codex experience is against a kan and mek spam army. Here is my list, I also intend it to replace my older all rounders list:

Sorcerer Zarathustra with Mark of Tzeentch, Wind of Chaos, Bolt of Change and melta bombs 190pts
Elites
Chaos Dreadnought with Plasma Cannon and heavy flamer 110pts
8 Rubrics and Aspiring Sorcerer with Wind of Chaos 275pts :Rhino with Havok Launcher 50ptss
8 Rubrics and Aspiring Sorcerer with Bolt of Change 270pts :Rhino with Havok Launcher 50pts
7 Rubrics and Aspiring Sorcerer with Bolt of change 246pts :Rhino with Havok Launcher 50pts
Heavy Support
Chaos Predator with Lascannon Sponsons 130pts
Chaos Predator with Lascannon Sponsons 130pts
Army total:1500pts
I'm thinking of possibly dropping the HQ Sorcerer and the Rhinos and taking a lord in terminator armour with Mark of Tzeentch, Power weapon and combi bolter (plama) and either a terminator squad with mark of Tzeentch and various weapons or a havok squad with 4 autocannons. Either that or go crazy and take Ahriman
The Havoks would be alpha legion though, yet the terminators are not finished just yet and so would need to be finished in time.
So what are your thoughts? Out of curiosity could this list fair well as an all rounders list?

Yes, I use Swooping Hawks, they are lovely models so why not?

I think the third Rubric squad is redundant, and to be honest I've never liked Bolt in a Rubric squad since if you're shooting at vehicles the rest of your squad is being useless. I would replace it with a squad of Tzeentch marked Terminators (You can convert Grey Knights into Thousand Sons Terminators quite easily) with combi-meltas and chainfist since otherwise you're really lacking something to crack open heavy vehicles. If you do remember to take personal icons on your aspiring sorcerors. The Predators are a pretty good option for long range anti-tank/transport. If you find you need more objective holders a small, cheap squad of summoned daemons is really good at it.






Change and change until Change is our master, for nothing neither God nor mortal can hold that which has no form. Change is the constant that cannot be changed.

No game of chess can be won without pawns, and this may prove to be a very long game.

Would a squad of Havoks with 4 Autocannons and champ with combi plasme be an idea then? They can bust all but the heaviest tanks, and if I don't maw out on numbers I could then use a small 5 man chaos marine squad with a melta gun? Would be Alpha legionaires then though. (I don't have a grand total of 1 lesser summoned daemon model with me, one of the old metal horros, the rest are at home, awaiting building.)
How would a squad of 5 terminators with Mark of Tzeentch, heavy flamer, chain fist, 3 combi meltas/plasmas, a power fist and a pair of lightning claws handle?
Also, what is the youtube video signiture in your link?
