1750 Chaos List --

It's quite a challenge writing a chaos list. I really like the concept of a Forgefiend, I just wish they cost 30-50pts less, then they'd be amazing.

The idea here is the Chaos Lord joins the big cultist blob, makes them fearless, if anyone assaults, the cultist champ does challenge duty and the chaos lord gets to punch some faces with his power axe.

Rhino's and small unit of cultists start the game in reserve and then drive up after. (can you smoke & turbo-boost? I don't think so?)

I think a unit of 3 Chaos Bikes with 2 Melta Guns is good for 90pts. For 100 points you can get 3 bikes with 2 plasma guns, and you can mount the plasma/melta on the bike so you can keep your Boltpistol/CCW on your dude.

Heldrake is to deal with MEQ stuff, maybe vector strike some flyers. Not quite the most ideal list, but for pure chaos, this is getting as close to good I can manage (while handicapping myself with 3 Forgefiends :-) )

Ya, I just read that. You can turbo-boost yourself to acquire a cover save, which'd probably be better than popping smoke. On a read of smoke launchers, it looks as though you can shoot your dudes, then pop smoke, as smoke is done instead of the vehicle itself shooting.

I actually was wondering that myself cause it would help my wolves a little since they carry 2 special weapons in a squad of grey hunters

If you're driving the vehicle 12" though you're shooting snap shots out of the hatch. Snap shots with plasma is kind of a wash
