You might as well change the daemon allied zombie cultists into more mobility like a rhino or a heldrake. Take the GoM off of the Daemon Prince. He is powerful enough and doesnt need a GoM. You might as well spend those points in a flyer or APCs.
Combine a heldrake with survivable csm and you can wipe space marines and horde armies.
Again, Im gonna talk about the plague marines again. I wouldn't recommend meltas on them, but two squads of ten with four plasmas each will dish out alot of damage to AP3 and to low armour vehicles. Your havocs with lascannons shouldnt have much problem going against high armour targets. 4 lascannons into a land raider, let alone a rhino should be able to glance the thing to death if not pen it and roll on the chart with the +1 modfier. You will have to have bad rolling not to. Use the plague marines as an infantry killing machine instead, and as I said above, strip a cultist unit and some points from your DP for a heldrake. (the strength 7 AP3 vector strike +baleflamer can chew through infantry and horde armies)
Now you have two squads of infantry killing power, a tankbuster unit and a flying terror. It would take your opponent alot of luck and brains to take out this army, due to the survivability of your marines and the ability to deal tons of damage from each unit will give you a distinct advantage.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/555159/6100089.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/555159/6100089.page GMT CSM 1850 point PM can take special weapons in a unit; allied zombie cultist is necessary so I have a loophole against VotLW but a primary could be taken out with either GoM or one havoc to bring in a heldrake- which is something I was thinking about. Zombies were more fodder/cover save if anything so 70 is enough. GoM i liked because you can never have enough power, but if i get boon of mutation it is unneeded and I'd rather have more bodies for havocs for survivability of LC. melta's I'd keep because its good to have multiple units that will be able to do multiple things. If I only had one pure anti-vehicle unit that got wiped out, that could end up very bad.
so.... take out one group of cultists and GoM for heldrake]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/555159/6100100.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/555159/6100100.page GMT CSM 1850 point
And can you make BL allies cultists into zombies when Typhus is in the primary?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/555159/6100166.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/555159/6100166.page GMT CSM 1850 point

in response to the zombie question, yes you can. typhus can nominate any cultist in the "army" to become a zombie]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/555159/6100170.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/555159/6100170.page GMT
