The thing about Chaos is that whenever I start making units of Chaos Chosen, or Nurgle Marines, or some of their other cool units, the point cost per model inches up to near the cost of a Chaos Terminator. And I think the Chaos Terminators do even more than a lot of the other units, even when you pimp out the non-terminator units with champions and so forth. So I want to try just going all the way and using a bunch of terminators. That, and I just found out that the Icon of Khorne can apply to the entire squad of terminators ...
Here goes ...
Chaos Army List, 1500 Points
HQ SECTION (155)
Chaos Lord
-Terminator Armor
-Mark of Khorne
-Daemon Weapon, Bloodfeeder of Khorne
ELITES (750)
1st Chaos Terminator Squad (7 Terminators) (330)
1 Terminator – Aspiring Champion, Icon of Khorne, Reaper Autocannon, Lightning Claw
3 Terminators – Aspiring Champion, Combi-Melta, Power Weapon
3 Terminators – Twin-Linked Bolter, Power Weapon
2nd Chaos Terminator Squad (10 Terminators) (420)
2 Terminators – Aspiring Champion, Reaper Autocannon, Lightning Claw, one has Icon of Khorne
8 Terminators – Twin-Linked Bolter, Power Weapon
TROOPS (370)
1st Noise Marine Squad (6 Marines) (185) – 1 Blastmaster, 5 Sonic Blasters
2nd Noise Marine Squad (6 Marines) (185) – 1 Blastmaster, 5 Sonic Blasters
HEAVY SUPPORT (225)
1st Obliterator Cult (3 Obliterators) (225)
Brief reasons for choices:
Chaos Lord - Needed an HQ unit, and he can lead the 1st Terminator Squad. He was the cheapest HQ, and with his Daemon weapon he gets something like an average of 6-7 attacks per turn in close combat, even accounting for possible 1's rolled.
Terminators - I chose the big squad of 10 because I wanted two Reaper Autocannons in the squad, and because since the Icon applies to all models, it is more efficient to have it as big as possible, as the icon costs the same no matter the size. The squad of 7 will be led by the Lord, so it will have 8 models total. Could not afford to make it any bigger.
Noise Marines - Provide shooty support as the Terminators attack.
Obliterators - Shoot vehicles with lasers from far away. Act like twisted bullies. Grunt a lot.
