Goatboy right here with a 40K listing concept that makes use of Huron, Fabius and a few mysterious issues I like from the CSM armylist – that might simply wreck store on the tabletop.
Presently I’m planning on enjoying Emperor’s Kids for some time however relying on how the brand new CSM stuff popping out is – I may need to swap again. It appears irrespective of what number of occasions I take a look at different armies I hold coming again to Chaos Area Marines. I wish to speak about engaged on an inventory concept that makes use of a few of the issues I like from the military and possibly getting one thing working. I do know I wish to use Huron and the Masters of the Maelstrom for one thing. This implies taking that unit and placing them into one other unit that provides them probably the most issues they’ll do. The present thought can be utilizing Chosen to assist create a pleasant fight brick. I actually want the Chosen may get one other Powerfist to assist them out however we’re locked into what the equipment has.
Placing the Record Collectively
Huron – 120
Masters of the Maelstrom – 115
Chosen X 5 – 125
Chaos Rhino – 75
Whole – 435
That looks like so much nevertheless it does give a enjoyable unit to assist maintain the middle. Proper now I’m considering what if we had two form of bricks to assist out. The opposite kinda of brick choice can be to take a look at Fabius Bile and one other brick of 10 Chosen to assist create one other pile of wounds to take care of.
Fabius Bile & pal – 100
Chosen X 10 – 250
Chaos Rhino – 75
Whole – 425
This can be a lot of factors into two items however that is all about controlling the middle and counter punching as wanted. Now we now have to assume what can we use to punch up a bit extra. I believe the right reply in these occasions is to simply take three Vindicators. The Chaos variations are fairly superb with Darkish Pacts so going hog with three will in all probability be the assistance we’d like. It additionally offers us an opportunity to punch right into a C’tan.
Chaos Vindicator – 185
Chaos Vindicator – 185
Chaos Vindicator – 185
Whole – 555
This has me sitting at 1415 factors and we’d like just a few extra issues to assist us do stuff. We want some utility to assist rating missions and simply get in the best way of issues as wanted. There are some things proper now within the CSM e book that do that and one in all them is the lowly Chaos Bikers. This unit offers out a pleasant batch of wounds, is fairly quick, and might punch up typically if wanted.
Chaos Bikers X 3 – 70
Chaos Bikers X 3 – 70
Whole – 140
Subsequent up will we do extra utility or will we do a few of the punch up items for CSM? We may go together with a Chaos Lord and 5 Legionaries in a Rhino. This may give us some punching motion. We may additionally go 5 Raptors with a Chaos Lord w/Bounce Pack to present a unit that is available in with 4 Heavy Weapon assaults that may deep strike in. Let’s go together with a Chaos Lord and Legionaries as a result of having one other Rhino is useful and we may make the most of the additional area as a spot to both disguise one other punchy unit or simply one other choice to wreck issues.
Chaos Lord – 90
Legionaries X 5 – 90
Chaos Rhino – 75
Whole – 255
This leaves us at 1810 with some room in a Rhino for one more 5 man squad of one thing after which more than likely a Cultist squad. There are two choices we now have for this Rhino that I believe assist out and one is the Nemesis Claw to assist in giving some punching choice in addition to turning off Stratagems once we attempt to slam in. Or we may simply go together with Cypher as another choice as nicely. I hold considering Cypher will probably be useful in messing with the Opponents CP Economic system.
Cypher – 90
Chaos Cultists – 50
Whole – 140
This now leads us to 1950 factors and a few room for enhancements if we would like. Proper now with Fabius Bile being within the military let’s go together with Creations of Bile. The detachment has sufficient enjoyable stuff and having items both get more durable, hit tougher, or quicker can be superior. Plus I can add the Prime Take a look at Topic to the Chaos Lord to present the mannequin an opportunity to have Injury 4 on his Thunder Hammer.

Creations of Bile and Huron and Associates Techniques
Will this work? It nonetheless feels mild on some threats and I’m wondering if I may drop a Vindicator to get extra stuff. I’m additionally slightly prime heavy with the 2 bricks however I’m wondering if they are going to be helpful. I nonetheless assume the Corsair Raiders is perhaps a great unit with Infiltrate however I’m not certain but.
What do you assume? Would this be enjoyable to play?
