The general strategy would be to use the Cultists backed by the Plague marines to take objectives while the Oblits and Havoks tank hunt. The Demon Prince takes biomancy and Nurgle for his psyker powers (2x biomancy) and wrecks as much face as he can, vector striking light fliers where possible. The helldrakes take on fliers priority wise and baleflame troop squads or other heavy weapons infantry units. Finally the regular CSM Squads in Rhinos can assist in tank hunting or steal objectives late game, etc.

I feel like I might be weak against a heavy air team, but what other things should I be looking at ? Where am I coming up short? I wanted another squad of Plague Marines instead of the Havoks but I just didn't have the points to make another meaningful squad. Would it be better to ditch the havocks and turn the oblits into two squads of two?, or a squad of 3 and a squad of 2?

Id drop the prince this list needs typhus, he makes plauge marines troops who rock as scoring units as they are impossible to shift without use of realy big guns, and he makes cultists zombies which are suprisngly robust with their FNP saves, also he is a REAL psker unlike the prince but he is forced to take 2 nugle powers but the last power is insane against hordes and the other two just screw with people. finaly he has a demonic force weapon. multi wound models fear him, Ork nobs wil panic and die, spawn will go hit sommin else and tyranid warrors wil eat themselves before trying to attack typhus.

cultists sholdnt have nurgle marks it is a waste. if you realy need disposable toughness 4 models ally with orks and buy some boyz NO EXCEPTIONS get the full 35 AND MAKE THEM ZOMBIES WITH TYPHUS typus is fantastic for escorting cultists hes realy hard to wound and if he is wounded simply throw the wound onto a zombie, he has blight greandes so your cutist will be shrouded and suffer no penelty for charging people in cover.

if you get typhus you can replace the marine squads for more plague marines

havocs arnt needed if feilding obliterators oblits do it better and are more adaptable id get a preaditor with HB sponsons and a havoc launcher for mass anti infanty fire power at just over 100 pts alternatively add lascannon sponsons if worried about tanks

150 pts gets a mastery level 3 sorcerer with terminator armor and familiar he can take 3 bio powers, re roll psyker tests, and is LD10 (stuff you psyker price) my be worth droping a marine squad for one and he makes a better warlord than typhus as he can get a useable warlord trait (typhus trait sucks).

get some spawn with MoN for a t6 unit that will ream infantry

the reduction from droping the prince for typhus wil buy you the extra squad of beloved plague marines

most of this is just sugetions but this list is too well suited for typhus for you not to take typhus, drop that prince he wont help you in his current state]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528809/5651295.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528809/5651295.page GMT Re:2k Chaos List, 1st time 6th Edition please help CSM list. It'll be the only FMC so it will be focused off the table and at 2k the opponent should have plenty of guns to do so. I'd drop him for Typhus like the above poster has suggested. Also drop the upgrades from you CSM squads. Just keep them basic. 10man strong with 2 plasma guns(170pts) or 2 melta guns(160pts)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528809/5651346.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528809/5651346.page GMT 2k Chaos List, 1st time 6th Edition please help LD and the hatered SM is fun

however this is a nice list, full of nice stuff.

consider merging both groups of cultists so you can use the typhus escort tactic like i said in my first post]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528809/5651888.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528809/5651888.page GMT 2k Chaos List, 1st time 6th Edition please help

This guy is incorrect if you are going to roll typhus with cultists make the unit he's with regular cultists, not zombies. Typhus baffles them fearless. Zombies are slow and purposeful, they can not run. That means typhus in that group can't run. That's no way to live]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528809/5653668.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/528809/5653668.page GMT
