Just threw this together while planning what I want to buy for my Chaos army, figured I should take some feedback on it before dropping £280 on it. I'm using the Chaos marines codex but using minimal chaos stuff to show that these marines haven't quite gone all the way down the road to corruption yet.

I'd have thought that VotLW and the gifts of mutation would be a bit unfluffy for a heresy army. But other than that it looks solid, I can't be of too much help since I only use MoN

I think VotLW is standard on a lot of stuff, and I know gifts probably aren't the most in theme thing to give, but they just sound really fun.
