armies i will be facing most often are: eldar, space marines, nids, gray knights, tau and wraithdar (GK and wraithdar are my biggest concern right now)

i am going to be starting this army from the new attack force:
1 terminator lord
5 termiators
10 chaos marines
rhino
5 raptors
and a forge/mauler fiend



for the terminator lord i came up with a few loadouts

1 - terminator armour, MoT, chainfist and a combi-melta
2 - terminator armour, MoT, chainfist and a lightning claw
3 - terminator armour, MoT, chainfist and burning brand of skalathrax

here is the squad he will be joining:

5 terminators
MoT, reaper autocannon, 3 combi-meltas, chain fist, 2 power fists, champ with combi melta

10 chaos marines
2 melta guns, combi-melta
rhino

20 cults
2 heavy stubbers

Ridley (heldrake)
baleflamer

Maulerfiend




the role of this unit will be to deepstrike down behind a tank and most likely pop it the first try then they can go around and fist tanks to death and take out any vulnerable unit like devastators etc MoT is there because i want the extra invuln since this squad will attract the attention of big guns unless they are left to run rampant. and because MoS is pointless since i wont be taking advantage of +1 I.


with the chaos squad it is pretty much rush forward to contest objectives, and pop a tank if i go with option 2, or rush forward and contest the objective while keeping the armoured infantry at bay and hope my combi-melta will hurt any tank.

the cults are just going to sit at my main objective and fire at what ever,

the mauler fiend will just rush forward and clean up a tank hurt by the terms or the unit that was brought out of the tank.

and the heldrake will just do its things and burn what it can and vector strike tanks left standing.

i couldnt manage to fit in the raptors here but for my next 500 points i was thinking of this:

10 chaos space marines
2 meltas, combi-melta

las pred

now im torn on the loadout on my raptors.. i already have lots of meltas so tanks and things such as wraithguard and terminators shouldnt be too big a problem to kill. the only thing is how expensive raptors can be and i really want to field all of the new models, even the hellbrute since it isnt too bad and its a cheap walker

so

a hellbrute with just a reaper autocannon is really cheap and can do some hurt, it also adds an extra thing for the enemy to shoot down and with 5 odd tanks and a heldrake this should leave him worrying. but if i want my raptors in here i have to take out the helbrute or the las pred.

i did read a review on raptors as either a 5 man 2 melta suicide squad or go out of my way to invest in them. i love them too much to throw them away so the option would be to go:

10 raptors
MoS, banner of excess, 2 melta guns and a power fist on the champion
but this comes to around the 275 point mark. but should they work then should make up their point costs.

i would be hoping for them to either jump their way forward of if i have first turn and will risk deep striking them behind lines with the terminators they can pop a tank, and the terminators take another or the raptors pop a transport and the terminators take down the squad that falls out.

so the units i have mentioned i really want to use, but kepe in mind this is for casual play NOT a tournamnet style of gaming, but primarily i want to have the units i get in the new attack force in my main list and build around that, and yes i am only sticking to the marks of Slaanesh and Tzeentch

any help would be appreciated.

The one thing I can tell you is that rushing a 125 point AV12 vehicle at your entire foe's army will not result in anything good for your maulerfiend.

Look at how other people post and try to reformat your post to state what you want to hear from users.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/584210/6621477.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/584210/6621477.page GMT
