Hey guys, I plan on playing a few friendly 1500 point games Saturday and testing out new things with my CSM. Primarily I run a Nurgle force, this time I wanted to mix it up with some of my new models. Please tell me if you have any suggestions that would make the lists better. I will be playing both lists, so I'm not asking as to which I should play, just anything that will make them better. Here we go:

List 1:
Khorne Lord on Juggernaut with Axe of Blind Fury, Sigil of Corruption (170)
Skulltaker on Juggernaut (145)

Elites:
Bloodcrushers of Khorne x4 (180)

Troops:
Cultists x10 (5 Squads @ 50 points each)
Bloodletters x10 (100)

FA:
BaleDrake (170)

Heavy:
Nurgle Obliterators x2 (3 squads @ 152 points each)

The primary focus here is to run the Bloodcrushers with the two HQs towards a group of enemies and splitting the HQ's off if needed during the movement phase to charge different targets. 3 Cultist squads will come in reserve for late game objective grabbing, one squad of obliterators and the Bloodletters will deepstrike in. I have 30~ points left to spend, should I get meltabombs on the lord and rewards for the daemons?


The 2nd List:

HQ:
Slaanesh Lord with Power Sword, Burning Brand, Melta Bombs (130)

Elite:
Terminators x3 with Chainfist, 2 Combi-melta (117)

Troop:
Noise Marines x5 with Blastmaster (2 squads @ 125 each)
Cultists x 18 (3 Squads @ 82 each)
Cultists x30 (130)

FA:
Baledrake (170)

Heavy:
Nurgle Obliterators x2 (3 squads @ 152 points each)

The plan is to run the Lord with the larger cultist squad and camp on an objective. The NM focus on AP3 and anything in cover, the obliterators drop plasma cannons or TL plasma on any AP2. Terminators and one squad of obliterators if needed will drop in from reserves to threaten a gunline or pop a tank.


There we have it, any suggestions? It should be noted that the group I play with rarely uses fliers, apart from my Heldrake and one player who occasionally plays a StormRaven, so I am not really worried about AA. My main opponents are SoB, SM, CSM, and IG.

Oh, sorry didn't realize that. I think I'll change up the list and drop daemons entirely then. Sadly I don't have any spawn, what do you think about a group of unmarked bikers with a couple meltaguns?

I think I'll try that out, my friend has some bikers I can use for the game tomorrow. Thanks for the advice, Ku'Gath.
