I'm building my first army, and I've got most of it down, but I'm not sure if I want to take more troops, more terminators, or a second HQ (Chaos Lord) to get to 1500 points.
Current Total: 1,281
HQ Daemon Prince 165
Wings
Mark of Nurgle
Nurgle’s Rot
Troops Space Marines 330
14 Marines
1 Aspiring Champion
1 Power Weapon
1 Plasma Gun
1 Heavy Bolter
1 Icon of Nurgle
Troops Plague Marines 221
6 Marines
1 Aspiring Champion
2 Plasma Guns
Elites Terminators 160
4 Marines
1 Champion
Elites Possessed 175
4 Marines
1 Champion
1 Rhino
Heavy Support Defiler 150
"Fast Attack" Spawn 80
2 Spawn
Tactics: The goal is to put my possessed, spawn, Daemon Prince, and potentially the Defiler (depending on the configuration I decide on for the battle) into the thick of battle. I'm considering putting a few more icons on my troops, the cheaper ones, for deep striking purposes. Anyhow, I get them doing their job, then use the fire support from the marines to do as much damage as possible. I'm also thinking about decreasing the number of marines and adding obliterators, or just adding obliterators instead of a second HQ to get to 1500. I haven't played a game with them yet so we'll see how it shapes up.
