I have been trying to make a low point thousand sons list and its not easy. Finally I decided fluff be damned. Thousand sons in squads bigger then nine hanging out with slaanesh sorcerers. I know its blasphemous.

125- chaos sorcerer, `MoS, lash of submission

TROOPS

301- x12 thousand sons, bolt of change

HEAVY

150- x2 obliterators


This is the game plan. Each sorcerer gets his own rubric body guard and between the two of them i can push cc squads back and pull shooters out of cover. All the while slowly advancing forward laying down some serious ap3 dakka. The oblits and bolts of change should be able to take out transports and whatever small armor i'll see at 1k pts. after that its just a matter of getting squads into rapid fire range with no cover. I'm only playing friends and when we play this small its on a 4x4 table. That will help my slow army. I think i'll just deploy as far out in my zone as possible and just march to the center where i can reach almost the whole table. questions, comments, suggestions, all would be much apprecited

Haha! I like it. Tsons are underrated and underused. Some edits that might help:

1. Drop a Lash and get more Oblits. 2 Lashes at 1k is a bit excessive, and the extra lolihaveeveryweapon platform will benefit you more.

2. [Alternative to #1]. Drop BOTH Sorcerors and get a Lash/Wings DP and another Oblit.

3. Consider dropping your Bolts of Change. You're at a real risk of being swarmed and eaten in CC, so Wind of Chaos would be good at deterring any would-be melee attackers. Keep in mind that WoC glances vehicles on a 4+, so you're not giving up all you anti-mech.

4. Drop Tsons down to 10 and grab two Rhinos. Having a thin metal box in between them and the enemy is more helpful than you might think.
