Hey guys this is an army a friend asked me to write up for him based on what he's getting for crimbo obviously the battleforce a chaos lord so the only thing he has to buy himself really is a vindicator and a zerker squad.

Anyway the Possessed Im not sure on but hes pretty set on them after all they do look great and sticking them in a rhino is really the only way I can see them lasting more than 8 seconds on the battlefield and with all those powerfists running about i doubt he will have a problem with enemy tanks.

Tactics for this list are simple run up and smash things and hug cover incase of battlecannons. Thoughts?

HQ:

Terminator lord with MoK, Bloodfeeder, 155 pts

Elites:

5 Terminators with 1 combi weapon, chainfist, 3 powerfists, powerweapon, MoK = 230 pts

Troops:

8 Berserker's with Champion, Powerfist, = 208 pts

10 CSM with MoK, Champion, Powerfist, 2 melta, rhino = 275 pts

8 Berserker's with Champion, Powerfist =208 pts

Heavy Support:

Vindicator = 125 pts

Predator with full Lascannons = 165 pts

total = 1516 pts

He needs to bust up armor, something with meltas for heavy stuff and autocannons/missiles for the big stuff.

Plague Marines or CSMs/Chosen/Havocs/Bikes with meltas in Rhinos, Oblits, Dreads, and the like are necessary to bust up armor. 2 units of Berzerkers and 1 unit of Possessed should be sufficient.

DS-ing Termies is a poor idea.

Deep striking Terminators is a poor idea? Also this is a Khornate list so sadly Plague marines are out of the question.

Maybe outfit the CSM squad with twin melta by dropping some Possessed?

Meltas are the only reason to have a CSM squad over Berserkers.

DSing Terminators is overall a poor choice for most player/opponent match-ups.

Consider getting an AoBR dreadnought and converting it to Chaos; they're as monetarily cheap as dirt, and will give you an effective unit for points cheap (not as cheap as it should be, but let's not go there).

Doing the Greenstuff on those Terminators to make them Obliterators would be the cheapest way to get strong AT ability into this list, and it is cost neutral for the list.

That leaves you with a Khorne Terminator Lord running around by himself, which is suboptimal. Consider changing him to a power-armored Lord and putting him in a Rhino with some Berserkers. Terminator armor provides nothing important for a Chaos Lord, anyway - he already has a 5++ and shouldn't be dealing with a lot of AP3+ shooting.
