How're you going to get the melta in range? It might be worth looking for a little more back-field artillery that can sit and shoot at theirs for the first 2 turns while other stuff gets in range. A full las predator clocks in at 190 points. Drop the 2nd meltas off each CSM squad, bring 2 down to 5 and they can fit in the land-raider to get closer. That should knock off a few points. Possibly take the juggerlord off his mount and give him a jump pack if you can, if you need to move him around and save points.

Also, technically as it's a WE battalion, the CSM need mark of Khorne.

How about this ?

Looks alright on paper to me. Just know that it seems some guys are footslogging it so keep them safe and out of LOS when possible.

What kind of lists are you up against? As your list seems ok for fun non competitive games but when it needs to get more competitive it will need some changes.

It's quite impossible for me to know in advance against what kind of list I'll be playing. We have every kind of people at my local game store.

I'd probably reduce two of the CSM squads to 5 and put them in a Rhino.

I don't know if the apostle can have the axe of blind fury. Most relics replace the weapon that is the same type as them and the apostle doesn't have access to a power axe.

Right. I'll give him the black mace.

If it is TAC I would consider going plasma in stead of melta. Lords/ princes can provide the re-roll of 1's, they have more range and will have more a more reliable effect then the meltas.

If you plan to put your zerkers in rhinos, make squads of 9 +apostle/kharn or squads of 10.

I always put a PF on my zerker champ so that they can take out vehicles/ terminators more reliably.
