Force of Khorne (plus Mercenaries) Alright this is what i've written for a mess around tournament i'm having with my friends this summer. Its still in the planning phase, and we haven't decided whether or not to do a 1500 point or 2000 points. Either way this is the 2000 points list, and if it does change then i know what i'll take off. Anyway this is the army
HQ
Chaos Lord 160 points Terminator Armour Mark of Khorne Personal Icon Daemon Weapon
Elites
Chosen Chaos Space Marines 206 points 7 Chosen Aspiring Champion Meltabombs Power Weapon Plasma Pistol Flamer
Chaos Terminators 190 points 4 Terminators Champion Chainfist Pair of Lightning Claws Heavy Flamer Icon of Khorne Chaos Land Raider 270 points Demonic Possession Extra Armour Havoc Launcher
Troops
Chaos Space Marines 230 points 10 Chaos Marines Aspiring Champion Power Weapon Meltabombs Icon of Khorne Flamer Meltagun
Khorne Berzerkers 183 points 8 Berzerkers Skull Champion Chaos Rhino Transport 65 points Extra Armour Havoc Launcher
Chaos Space Marines 180 points 5 Chaos Marines Aspiring Champion Plasma Pistol Melta Bombs Power Fist Plasma Gun Icon of Khorne
Summoned Lesser Daemons 104 points 8 Daemons
Fast Attack
Chaos Raptors 170 points 5 Raptors Aspiring Champion Lightning Claws Mark of Khorne
Chaos Spawn 80 points 2 Spawns
Heavy Support
Chaos Vindicator 160 points Daemonic Possession Havoc Launcher
Total = 1998 points
This is effectivly my planetstrike invasion force. The chosen Marines will be a infiltration unit designed to move in, blow some stuff up and kill anything in their path (They are also going to be represented by Night Lords, just for a narrative point of touch.) Anyway my commander and Terminators will go in, hit hard, and move in. While my troops and Raptors go in for holding objectives. Outside of Planetstrike the Raptors will go for a hit and run unit, tieing up key rival units, same with the two Spawns. The vindicator will be my "smashy smashy do more explosions" tank.
Any thoughts to the army?

fire - link Scarlet Obsidian Rose Alright Just a quick question; why? Army list has been editied illegalities. same as posting Unit stat-lines. it makes GW angry. Hmm, its odd because i looked on the legal page. I know it said about what you can and cant do with GW's IP and rules sharing was not on the list of things you cannot do. Now i understand it might fall under reproduction of their IP, but a few stats and rules compared to a whole book? I cant see it.

Don't argue with us, take it up with Caleidah or DE.

I think you'd find it difficult to beat a extremely shooty army, such as Tau. I know you have Daemons, which can Deep Strike with your Raptors and Spawn (can they?) But they may scatter, then get shot to pieces.

But they may scatter, then get shot to pieces. I can see where are you are coming from, but its why i've given most of my troops Chaos Icons. Besides having the Mark of Khorne, any deep striking unit that lands within 6 inches of an Icon, do not have to deep strike. Unfortunately Spawn cannot deep strike

They do, well used to when they posted the reference sheets but you would have thought stats would be more of a no no than that of points costs

They do, well used to when they posted the reference sheets but you would have thought stats would be more of a no no than that of points costs simply, points costs do vary much more than statlines, a marine comes aside from characters in a 3 flavors: basic, scout, veteran... but depending on equipment it can vary intensely from low teens to over forty...

As far as your list goes, I wouldn't take those Spawn unless you have nothing else that you would rather spend points on. As many champions as you have, I would drop the Spawn and see if you can scrimp another 20 pts out somewhere to get a Summoned Greater Daemon. Worth the points every time.

Caleidah is right, summoned greater demon running for a while in enemy lines is a sight to behold, and even if he gets gunned down eventually he draws fire away from rest of your army,

Could drop the havoc launcher from the Rhino and the metlabombs from the 5 man squad, drop that along with the two Spawns and there is the 100 points
