Attempt at another Wordbearers CSM List... Feb 23, 2015 19:31:55 GMT -6

I've had a bunch of chaos lying around that I haven't been able to make a list from. I want to do a thematic list for wordbearers that is sorta the opposite of my sisters. I've been playing around with some thing like this:

Chaos Space Marines: Supplement - Crimson Slaughter (Combined Arms Detachment) [1850 pts]

+ HQ +

Dark Apostle [Bolt Pistol, Daemonheart (2+ armor save & IWND), Power Maul]

+ Elites +

Chaos Terminators
Terminator [Chainfist, Combi-melta]

Terminator [Power Axe, Combi-plasma]

Terminator [Power Axe, Combi-plasma]

Terminator [Power Axe, Heavy Flamer]

Terminator Champion [Power Maul, Combi-melta]

+ Troops +

Possessed
Possessed [x4]
Possessed Champion

Possessed

Possessed [x4]

Possessed Champion

+ Fast Attack +

Heldrake [Baleflamer]

+ Heavy Support +

Defiler [Dirge Caster, Heavy Flamer, Reaper Autocannon, Warpflame gargoyles]

+ Formations +

Helcult
Chaos Cultists [31x Cultists w/ Autopistol, 3x Cultists w/ Flamer, Cultist Champion w/ Shotgun]

Chaos Cultists [31x Cultists w/ Autopistol, 3x Cultists w/ Flamer, Cultist Champion w/ Shotgun]

Helbrute [Power fist, Reaper autocannon]

Helcult

Chaos Cultists [31x Cultists w/ Autopistol, 3x Cultists w/ Flamer, Cultist Champion w/ Shotgun]

Chaos Cultists [31x Cultists w/ Autopistol, 3x Cultists w/ Flamer, Cultist Champion w/ Shotgun]

Helbrute [Power fist, Reaper autocannon]

The 140 cultists with the Helbrutes serve as a screen to the possessed, while the terminators deepstrike onto backfield objectives. The defiler and heldrake are for longrange support.

I think you may end up short on troops in a competitive sense.

But more importantly its way more fun to convert and paint possessed and chosen than 140 cultists. Unless you have some really good conversion ideas for those little buggers.

The more I've looked at CSM the more I think I've just accepted anything other then a plague/noise marine army is going to be short on troops. The regular marine just doesn't cut it, and everything else is really expensive. I could move some of the cultists over to troops, 140 is actually only 4 squads worth, I just really like the fearless that helcult gives them. I guess it begs the question of which is better LD 7 with Obj Sec, or Fearless.
