How to Equip Chaos Space Marine Units
When equipping units you must think about presets and what you want to accomplish with that unit. Keep that in mind when
making your army list.
Equipping Chaos Marines
First think about what you want to do with your squad.
Meltas: Perfect for tank hunting and you can have 2 of them in a squad, be sure to put them in transport because if you footslog them they will be singled out and die!
Flamers: Perfect for fighting horde orks, tyranids and ive seen lots of people try to take as many as they can. I think that now you cant get cover saves with them.
Plasma Gun: I personally dont use it since it is pretty expensive and is almost complete suicide.
Missile Launcher: Ive had a terrible experience with them since they scatter and has a pretty limeted range for it if it was atleast 1 more foot longer i would take them
Heavy Bolter: I would take it
Lascannon: Like i said before its good
Aspiring Champ: Yes because you can cram in a power weapon
Melta Bombs: Of course especially when youre making a close combat list and 5 pts is extremely cheap
Equipping Rhinoes
Dozer Blade: Extremely helpfull for terrain filled boards and to smash through cover
Extra Armor: If youre carrying important weapons that are needed then yes and they make awesome walls!
Daemonic Possesion: Also great for walls that need to move foward and you dont have weapons on it so 4+ doesnt matter neither does weapon destroy
Bolter: I put them on all the time to make a rhino wall thats heavily fortified and shoots
Combi weapon: same concept but you can rush up and flame horde armies and tank hunt with a tank
Havoc Launcher: take these instead of bolters if you want
Tip!!! If you can afford 95 pts for a wall rhino its really helpful! They dont take up a force organization choice either
Equipping Defiler
This ones a giveaway but even pros forget about how to equip them
DO NOT ADD EXTRA TURRETS JUST STICK ON CLOSE COMBAT ARMS AND THATS IT
You shouldnt do this because when you fire the battlecanonn you cant fire anything but you can assualt. Stay back with your defiler and shoot if they deepstrike units you can fend them of with your strength 10 Close combat arms
