				<title>Escalation CSM, 500-1000</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ About 6 months ago my gaming store of choice went out of business and I took a hiatus. When I found a new place I was comfortable with and got back into it they had just started escalation, about mid January. They are working with 500 pts. for the remainder of this month and we'll bump it up to 1000 next month, 1500 in april, and 2000 in may. So I have have sent my <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(146);'>wh40k</span> career with the dark angles. I love their fluff but competitively I have never fared better than .500. So I figured I'd try the fallen approach and go <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(22);'>CSM</span>. So far they are much more fun to play, more diverse, and a bit more competitive. I have come up with 3 separate 500 pnt. lists I've been using and I am working on melding what I can into my 1000 point list. <br /> <br /> So here are the lists I have so far. <br /> <br /> <br /> <b><u>Death's Vanguard</u></b><br /> <br /> <b><span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(56);'>HQ</span></b><br /> Chaos Lord Kranon (65 pts): bog standard<br /> <br /> <b>Troops</b><br /> Cobb's Chaos Space marines 10 units (210 pts): <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(20);'>CCW</span> and pistols, 2 flamers, mark of slanesh and <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(265);'>FNP</span> icon of excess.<br /> <br /> Techvar's Cultists 10 count (50 pts): bog standard <br /> <br /> Anarchus' Cultists 10 count (50 pts.): bog standard<br /> <br /> <b>Elite</b><br /> Helbrute Drax The Destroyer (125 pts) las cannon<br /> <br /> Total: 500 points<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <b><u>The Disciples of Death</u></b><br /> <br /> <b><span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(56);'>HQ</span> </b><br /> Daemon Prince Morbo (The News Daemon) 265 pnts. Black mace, wings, <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(333);'>PA</span>, Daemon of Tzeentch.<br /> <br /> <b>Troops</b><br /> Techvar's Cultists 10 count (65): 8 Auto guns, 1 heavy stubber, and champion with shotgun <br /> <br /> Anarchus' Cultists 10 count (55 pts.): bog standard but with a flamer.<br /> <br /> <b>Elite</b><br /> Helbrute Drax The Destroyer (115 pts) aditional heavy flamer.<br /> <br /> Total: 500 points.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <u><b>The Fallen</b></u><br /> <br /> <b><span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(56);'>HQ</span></b><br /> Seraphicus The Fallen (sorcerer-110 pts): mastery <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(347);'>lvl</span> 2, mark of Tzeentch, force stave, gift of mutation<br /> <br /> <b>Troops</b><br /> Techvar's Cultists 10 count (65): 8 Auto guns, 1 heavy stubber, and champion with shotgun <br /> <br /> Anarchus' Cultists 10 count (55 pts.): bog standard but with a flamer.<br /> <br /> <b>Elite</b><br /> Helbrute Drax The Destroyer (1oo pts) bog standard<br /> <br /> <b>Fast Attack</b><br /> Heldrake Drogon (170 pts)<br /> <br /> Total: 500 points<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> So My 1000 point list I am hovering at right now comes at around 1000 points, and the idea is to try as much as I can before refinement, but I want input on any of these lists really. Some of my judgment may be clouded with the paint job for the <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(262);'>dp</span> and <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(51);'>hb</span> as both took me 10+ hours and are the best I have panted yet. <br /> <br /> <br /> <u><b>The Fallen</b></u><br /> <br /> <b><span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(56);'>HQ</span></b><br /> Daemon Prince Morbo (The News Daemon) 265 pnts. Black mace, wings, <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(333);'>PA</span>, Daemon of Tzeentch. (warlord)<br /> <br /> Seraphicus The Fallen (sorcerer-60 pts): bog standard<br /> <br /> <b>Troops</b><br /> Anarchus' Cultists 16 count (79 pts.): bog standard but with a flamer.<br /> <br /> Techvar's Cultists 10 count (65): 8 Auto guns, 1 heavy stubber, and champion with shotgun <br /> <br /> unnamed Cultists 10 count (65): 8 Auto guns, 1 heavy stubber, and champion with shotgun <br /> <br /> <b>Elite</b><br /> Helbrute Drax The Destroyer (1oo pts) bog standard<br /> <br /> <b>Fast Attack</b><br /> Heldrake Drogon (170 pts)<br /> <br /> <b>Heavy</b><br /> Defiler (195 pts) Bog Standard.<br /> <br /> total 1000 points]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ I think the first list has the most potential. In small games, Troops are what wins it for you. So having 3 Squads to your opponents two really could be the winner. I don't think they need <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(101);'>MoS</span> and Icon of Excess though...that seems, umm, excessive <img src="/s/i/a/baf5f2e54c6b17d5c5d39aecadfa1272.gif" border="0"><br /> <br /> If you dropped the Helbrute, the <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(101);'>MoS</span>, and the Icon of Excess, you could probably by a Heldrake. He probably won't have a reliable way at 500 points to deal with your flyer. If you can keep the drake alive long enough to roast his troops, you win.<br /> <br /> Just my 2¢]]></description>
