Hello everyone. I recently started back up on my chaos army after taking a long break from 40k, and I was hoping to get some critique on the list I'll be working up to. Thanks for taking a look, I'd appreciate any feedback.

It's at 2k even right now, that's what my local area stores normally play at, with occasional 3-5k apoc games but I'm not worried about that yet.

HQ: He isn't bad but I would prefer to see a daemonprince and 5 terminators. He doesn't need the combi bolter as he can fire the Tzeentch daemon weapon instead.

Elites: Get 1 chainfist just in case an enemy dread contacts you.

Troops: Take 10 man squads with 2 meltas or 2 plasmas and a PF champ. Also considder IoCG for them. A single ML is poor as the squad has to stay static and the rhinos and PF become useless.

Heavy: Defilers are better with axtra CCW all round. If the battlecannon is shot off just fleet into combat. The pred should take AC+2LC and move the havok launcher to a rhino. AC+LC compliment each other against tanks and big monsters. Havoc launmchers are ok on AC/HB preds as they fire at infantry most of the time.
