I've been trying to make all sorts of complex thousand sons lists, but I'm starting to think maybe I'm over-complicating things.

Main:
Ahriman (Warlord)
9 Thousand Sons- Rhino (Ahriman)
10 Thousand Sons- Rhino
10 Thousand Sons- Rhino
Vindicator- Daemonic Possession, Combi-Bolter
Vindicator- Daemonic Possession, Combi-Bolter
Vindicator- Daemonic Possession, Combi-Bolter

Allies:
Herald of Tzeentch- Disk of Tzeentch, Grimoire, Mastery Level 3
10 Pink Horrors
9 Screamers (Herald)

I've found putting 1kSons in a Rhino to be a waste. You have such limited numbers, you need those Infernao Bolt shots flying as fast as possible. With Ahriman, you can use his Infiltrate ability to mkae up for some of the lost movement on the 1kSons units and save the points for something else.

And on that note, if you're going with Thousand Sons because of the fluff (and why else would you!) wny units of 10? Just feels wrong to me... ;-)

The only other point I can see is that you really don't have much that can reach out and touch someone from further than 24". That could cause some problems, no?

I figure the metal boxes are just for mobility, then you dump out and shoot stuff.

Demonic possession is expensive and lowers the BS, but it is nice to ignore shaken/stunned. You could spend the points on a herald for the horrors, or something. It is up to you, but I would personally be tempted to risk moving up and popping smoke, then relying on that.

Since you have not hit an even 2k, take melta bombs on one of your aspiring sorcerers, or something.

The most important rule of 40K-Page XVII of the 6th edition rulebook, the figure at the top right of the page. "Shake hands with your opponent and thank them for a good battle and fun experience." Then go out for a beer.
