Just found this site a’little while ago and found this article, ( hope the year late response isent that annoying ) I enjoyed allot of what you said and was wondering if you be up for giving an opinion on a list i wrote in last few weeks. Its for 2k and its part effective part story and part just ideas i liked. I’ve always prefer Slaanesh because i’ve always thought that if your dead first it doesn’t matter what you do and all the units are in sizes of 6.

Troops are 6 units of 6 Noise Marines with 5X Sonic Blaster, 1X Blastmaster giving 90 bolter shots and 6 blasts along with assault forms for mobilities ( 185 Pts per Unit )

Fast is 2 units of 6 Raptors with IoS, 2 Meltaguns, and a Champion with Dual Claws. giving ability of movement, Anti-tank, and effective CC (180 Pts per Unit)

Elites – This is more for i just enjoy them – 2 CC Dreadnoughts DCCWs and replaced them with Heavy Flamers so Fire Frenzy will rarely effect me and a possible fire distraction ( 110 Pts Per Unit )

HQs – Two Daemon Princes with MoS, Wings, Lash of Submission for pretty much what you’ve explained already plus can hurt in CC effectively ( 155 Pts per Unit )

So in short is has 90 Bolter shots, total of 8 weapons at range that can kill tanks. The HQs and Dreads can take Tanks out in CC. and plenty of mobility and forced movement. for 6 Range units and 6 CC units

My army uses an all LC preditor , CC+ autocannon defiler with 6 missle launchers in the army (spread out so they can’t be wiped out all at once) but then again thanks to the bolter/CC changes I can switch on the dime to defend against those who break my fire wall.

my idea is a defencive Dakka AoE army which is great against any army which bunches togather due to numbers. I didn’t like how they nerfed the dreadaxe my deamon prince used to carry… not to mention the entire deamonic gift section…chaos has become more vanilla then i would like.

Not too sure what to think of the 4th edition rules… some good things… but mostly I had to totally reconfigure my army big time. and my undefeated leader may yet now die in battle for the first time in my armies history

I enjoyed this tactica of my favourite 40K army, but I just wanted to add that it is good writing practive to spell out the abbreviation on it’s first incarnation in a story. IoCG what?
Some of those acronyms might not be as familiar to everyone, especially an ol’ chaos general that hasn’t updated his army yet, or even read the new dex
