Not a bad list all in all. I used to run a raider rush zerker army will kharn and a squad fo chosen with meltas, was pretty fun and competitive enough.

It's likely you'll struggle with alot of the tough codex's out there at the moment but for casual play it should fair well.

Having one LR is a bit of a risk for me, essentially giving the meltas a target, i'd prefer to roll all rhinos or all LR - not a mix, but hey if it works for you - ignore this.

I'd prob drop the vindicator for another defiler - these things are pretty good.

Not a big fan of termie lords, not being able to sweep is annoying as hell. I'd go for kharn - he's only a lil bit more expensive and gives you some reliable anti mech also.

Undoubtedly everyone will tell you to field oblits, but you can make a solid list without these.

3 posessed land raiders full of bezerkers and Kharn pretty much comes to 1500 points and looks like a lot of fun. But I'd be pretty worried about vehicles since chaos LR don't have POTMS. If you want to move up with the bezerkers your missing out on firing and it's a lot of money on LR for a pretty much 1 trick pony.

If I dropped the LR for another rhino what would you suggest for the other points? Oblits? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/423745/3802992.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/423745/3802992.page GMT 1500 Khorne CSM MoK on a Daemon Prince only grants a single, additional attack-you can't get him in CC faster like a Slaanesh Prince, can't make him sturdier like a Nurgle one, and can't make him a fire platform like a Tzeentch one with a better save. Leave him at home. Your Khorne lord is a far better choice. Or, lose a few points elsewhere and bring in Kharn for only a few points more. Otherwise, good list.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/423745/3803008.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/423745/3803008.page GMT 1500 Khorne CSM DP for another lord, 8 zerkers and 2 lords would be an assault unit to make you sit up and take notice that's for sure.
The DP was to help with the anti tank though, there's only the defiler and vindicator otherwise and they're both likely to have juicier targets for their huge templates. And the LR won't be shooting before it drops its cargo.
Maybe dropping the Vindi for a pair of oblits might make sense, I'll have a good look at it later when I have the codex to hand.

Edited to reflect feedback.

I realize it would likely be more competitive if I dropped the Vindi and possibly the defiler for Oblits, but as I think I said originally, I want to be reasonably competitive without hitting too much of a cheese factor.

Anyone got any glaring omissions/errors or anything I really need to know? I know I'm short on anti tank and If i go up against anyone I know uses a lot of armour I'll likely modify it a bit.

Anyone got any thoughts on giving the lord a daemon weapon? +2D6 attacks is awfully nice but a 30% failure chance is a worry to say the least. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/423745/3803119.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/423745/3803119.page GMT 1500 Khorne CSM

Most will say the risk isn't worth the reward, but don't forget that Khorne cares not from whence the blood flows, only that it flows. I think it would be pretty fun in less serious games.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/423745/3806803.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/423745/3806803.page GMT
