Greetings Champions of Chaos!
With the newest models for Chaos about to be released soon, and
in next month's White Dwarf we get new
information about Abaddon, the Black Legion, and the Horus Heresy,
I figured it was about time for a good old
fashioned Chaos Tactical Thread!
Come one, come all ye followers of Chaos - share your favorite
units and method of fighting against the pawns
of the False Emperor! Or anyone else you care to pound on - I'm
not picky - especially if it's funny :-)
~ Brother Edward (new servant of chaos??? bwahahahaa...)
http://www.dragonrealm.com/exlibrismortis
PS. why am "I" writing this you may ask? well I'll tell you -
I've spent a little while learning how to play the
Blood Angels, and now my job is to make some of the most fearsome
Chaos armies imaginable so that I can
push the Blood Angels to their limits (maybe dare i say break
them???). So help me learn the mysterious ways
of Chaos that I may hurl all of their true might against the
servants of the False Emperor and find out who is right
by right of COMBAT!. Teach me the dark secrets that I might find
the very best ways not just to destroy Blood
Angels, but Space Marines in general! BWAHAHAHAHA - Who knew
being bad could be so much fun? :-)
PSPS. This seminar is for ALL branches of Chaos - explain to me
(and all the newbies) why your army is so
much fun, and what's so effective about it! A special request
for followers of Nurgle - I've gone with a Nurgle
theme for my first Chaos army - so any tricks you Nurgle types
may have please feel free to share! But I hope
to hear from all the Chaos Lords - I want all the ways to punish
those who serve the False Emperor that I can
get!

well most of this centers around the chaos lord and his retinue!
first of you turn one of the retinue in to an icon
bearer and give him the raptourouse standard, then make shure
you have a screen of 50 cultists in front of you!
because the cultists will never break when within 6" of the standard
(actually any one with in 6" becomes
fearless!)
another good one is to take a lot of transports with warp amps
and just set them in possition to start messing
with you opponents moral!
another one for the lord and retinue - upgrade them all to aspiring
champions and give them all 2 CC weapons
and the slanesh mark and gift doom siren! seriously they become
one of the deadlyest units this game has to
offer! there is nothing more dangerous than massed flame templates!
i know this because i originally thaught
warpspiders still used the flammer template, and with 7 templates
at ST6 it did not matter that it had no AP! i
wiped out an entire squad of 10 terminators in a single round
of shooting! yeh their save might be good but
when they had to make the save 70 times their was not much they
could do! now the doom siren is even better,
it has an AP and can be anywhere from ST5 - 10 which is awsome,
and very deadly!!!
well thats it from me, i'm very new to chaos and i am slowwly
building an emporers children army!

there are actuall minis for the cultists, and they are packaged
3 cultists per blister, they look like the cultists in
chapter aproved (the purple ones!), but anything that looks like
a human can work, heck even guards men can
work! I've also heard that necromunda modles work great also!

for nurgle cultists look at the scavvy range of necromunda models,
the plague zombies look
great as mindless nurgle cultists, then you have they scavvy
mutants which look like the more
gifted cultist who still have a bit of their mind left and some
funky mutations, and use the
normal scavvies as new recruits to the cult who haven't had time
to get mutated or nurgles rot
hasn't fully set in. and the scavvy boss makes a good demagogue
(scavvy boss 1 on the mail
order site is an awesome model).
have a look at the scavvies at:
http://uk.games-workshop.com/storefront/store.uk?database=93&imgsize=a&do=Default&game=8&code=yes
or you could just use WFB zombies but i think the necromunda range
is much better

Loads of models can be used for cultists!
Firstly, there are the official GW cultists, which I think are
a bit naff really.
IG in various forms for the 'not-too-committed' chaos cultist.
All the various necromunda models, Goliaths making good Khornate
cultists and scavvies as mutants. (See
above).
Zombies for Nurgley armies.
I'm going to use skeletons for Tzeentch cultists... the troops
are all animated under the great sorcerers, why not
the cultists too?
Beastmen make good cultists, especially for heavily deamonic armies.
Err, that's all that spring to mind at the mo.
Acidedge
P.S. Hurry up and get that Nurgle Rhino finished! I have faith
that it'll look REALLY gross...

Good evening Brother Edward (UKtime!) and once again Welcome
to the Dark Side!
I collect Chaos as a basically Undivided force. My main-stay
army is Night lords 'coz the colour scheme is out
of this world!
I have lots of terminators, an elite squad of 5 and my Lord and
retinue of 5, there is also a Sorceror.
There are 9 NL's Veterans with close combat armament and special
weapons, 10 Chaos Marines squad again
with close combat armament, both squads with rhinos.
For fast attack I have two squads of 4 bikers, one with ccw and
one with special weapons and I have a Raptor
squad of 8.
There is also a Night lords dreadnought, for the unpredictability
factor!
I also have allied 2 squads of 9 Iron Warriors veterans with
bolters and 2 heavy weapons each, these I use as a
fire base. In keeping with the Iron Warriors siege mentality!
I have a squad of 10 Alpha Legion marines armed tactically and
a squad of 9 Alpha Legion havocs.
Finally, for when I don't take the Sorceror (fluff again no sorceror
when these guys are around!), I have an 18
strong Khorne Berserker unit for up close and dirty work! (Sadly
only half painted as yet, but give it time!)
Oh yes, and just for luck a squad of 5 Chaos marines with bolters
all with Lizardmen heads that I converted for
a laugh!
When using a large army, over 4000pts, I basically attack as
follows, the Berserkers and NL's vets and cc
armed csm's in rhinos go for the throat as quickly as possible,
backed up by a flank attack by the Raptors and 2
Bike squads, sometimes both flanks! Depending on the opponents
set-up.
The Iron Warriors and Alpha Legion are a fixed firebase. The
Dread usually just trundles off on his own and
ends uop mowing down his own side, but there you go, madmen in
tin-cans are likely to be a bit like that!
And the Lord and termies follow up where necessary to finish
evryone off.
Least that's the theory, it never quite works like that in practice!
But time will tell!

Chaos is a good break from the "goody goody two shoes" forces
inhabiting the inner 40K world, and gives
people the experience of SM without all the been-there, done-that
looks from opponents. When I take out my
forces, people gawk at the hideous amounts of spikes and skulls
spread throughout my army. The differences
between chaos and loyal are many, from the blatantly obvious
to the horrifyingly subtle (as in plague marines
(you'd know that well) against.. uhh.. tactical marines?), with
amazing daemons and lowly nurglings, the chaos
force is mucho flexible. The space marines may have better terminators
and more advanced tanks, but they lack
the amount of tactical-marine variants and daemons that the chaos
horde boasts. They also lack flavor (sing
praises to the emperor is common, the gods each have their own
style) that Chaos has in forte. Troops like
assault squads are matched by Khorne Berserkers, Devastators
are slightly better then havocs, dreadnought
fights can get EXTREMELY ugly, chaos predators will occasionally
win against loyal ones, the razorback reigns
unopposed, special characters are well matched, and daemons stalk
the battlefeild, hunting down scout squads
and eating them (my friends bloodthirster killed 3 in the course
of one game). All in all, SM and Chaos are only
meant to fight each other(not just so they can hurl insults at
each other, but for obvious other reasons as well)
and the famous "duel" sub-game is actually feasible (ie. You
killed my Primarch! You grafitti'ed my blackstone
Fortress!) instead of unlikely matches between old one eye and
O'shovah.. I will talk tactics later..

Well, the first thing you want is loads of Plaguemarines as troops,
3 groups at least (i'm not kidding, these guys
are harder than stone). With T5 and being fearless they are extremely
resilent to eveything an opponent can
throw at them (unless they throw demolishers/basilisks or any
other Ap3 Str 7+ Ordnance against them ;). tactic
with these guys are fairly simple, use them for whatever you
need them to do, they are your bread and butter.
They are actually pretty nasty in CC too because of their toughness.
Lord: I recommend a Sorcererlord with the Psychic spell available
(flamer that wounds on 4+ AP1). Gice him a
good ol pair of plaguesword as well as blightgrenades and you
have a veritable CC-monster (chaosarmor if
points allow it). Take a retinue of more plaguemarines and make
3 or 4 of them asp champions, equip with
plagueswords (yes, they are definately worth it, especially when
fightnin nids...your carnifex had how many
wounds you said? uh oh, look at that i wounded him and rolled
a 4+ after that).
Fast attack: Haven't tried demons but anything that moves 12"
with an inv. save is pretty good. Raptors are
extremely good with their fearsome charge and are recommended
(expensive tho).
Heavy support: Go with havocs with the occasional Landraider/Dreadnought
thrown in.
Elites: Whatever you feel you need, why not a group of Plague
Terminators or some Berzerkers for more
CC-abilities. Possessed are kinda fun sometimes.
Rhinos/Daemons should be added to suit your style of play.
Tactics with Nurgle is kinda like do whatever you want but do
it at the right time :D
Seriously with 30+ T5 guys you aren't going to run out of troops
any time soon no matter what the enemy
throws against them, not to mention they'll never run. Just protect
your heavy support and lord and you're fine.
Best opponent is probably one playing nids (low save/T/S makes
you pratically invulnerable) or some fool with
little high str weapons (starcannons aren't that dangerous when
they only wound on 3+). Oh, and with most
armies where the basic troops have only 1 CC-attack you try to
avoid CC...don't with plaguemarines, there
aren't any normal troops that can easily wound them in CC (alright,
try to avoid genestealers but that goes for
everything).

First off Ed, great to see you join the power of Chaos, even
a Blood Angel can be tainted!
Now to tactics...
Me playing Night Lords, I love to trick my enemies, confuse them,
and scare them.
I start out with infiltrating the 1 Vet. squad I can ALWAYS do
it with, usually armed with missile launcher and
autocannon.
I go forward with 2 loaded rhinos, 20 CSM on foot, and a Dread.
Giving suport, 6 Havocs with 3 lascannons, and a Preditor.
My enemies are too worried about that Vet. squad, so pretty much
leave me alone on turn 1. Turn 2, im upon
my enemy with the rhino squads, butchering whatever got close
enough. Enemies get caught in crossfire,
because that Vet squad has made its way behind ememy lines. I
continue to pour fire down on them, and soon
the 2 CSM and dread get into combat.
well, thats 1 plan of mine
ENJOY

It is good to see that you now openly show your undermineing
of the Imperium. I raise my tentical, sword, and
object that resembles a hand that is holding the sword. Aucitaly
I'm still waiting for most of that (I own a real
katana, but I shant raise that because it could poke out an eye,
and it's lost in the basement). The best thing
about the great army of Nurgle is of course, anything and everything.
Possesed are great, and so are the plague
maines with there T5. Nurglings are extremly usefull for tatical
porposses, as they can tie up unit's in close
combat for the eintire game with there W3 and +5 invernerable
save (wraithwhat? oh yea... I hope you don't
plan on evey useing that thing). The besting thing is to have
your plague mairine havoic's pop out of a Rhino and
fire 3 melta-shot's and anything, or lot's and lots of plasma
rapid-fire goodness.
By the way, how do you see your former self as a Lord of the Blood
Angles? I just need to know some basic's
like:
-Do you have a BIG sword or a REALLY BIG sowrd?
-Bulkey or light armor?
-Do you have sholderpad's, and if so, what insignia do you have
one them?
-Any special ordaments?
I just want to know how you see yourself as I want to draw your
conversition to chaos (basicly 'you' in front of
a bloody altar on one knee with an errie black fog irraidiateing
from you). No I don't do color to often as I'm
not good at coloring, so don't bother giveing anything like that
please. I'll try to get one of my scaner's fixed
someday, but condiering my general energy, it may take awhile.

I'm honored - but if you want to draw me you'll need to draw a
loyal Blood Angel - feel free to make things as
creepy as you like, but I'm loyal Blood Angel through and through.
If one reads the beginning of the thread they
will see this: "now my job is to make some of the most fearsome
Chaos armies imaginable so that I can push the
Blood Angels to their limits " I am making chaos armies only
to train my Blood Angels to fight to their highest
capability :-) Sure it means I have to learn Chaos armies, but
Blood Angels are my fave, my heart, my soul - I
shall never abandon them, never turn on them. So again I'd be
honored for you to draw something if you wish -
I've never really given much thought to what I might liik like
but I'll show you a couple of minis that I really like...

It is hard to say that you are more devoted to one army then

+++++ Space Marines do not view the Empperor as a God, they view
him as a very capable leader - the
MOST capable leader whose vision and leadership will save and
protect humanity from all threats.
+++++ Space Marines (especially Blood Angels) I believe do believe
in free will - it is their choice every day to
serve the Emperor. People knowing good and evil (and choosing
evil) is how evil comes into being (aka the
Horus Heresy). Blood Angels (just like everyone else) do have
their own ideas about how things might be done
- but they choose every day to serve the Emperor - they choose
every day to bow their will to the will of the
leader they believe in - the leader whom their Primarch believed
in. Their faith is without measure. Some less
faithful members of the Imperium suggest with hushed whispers
that the Blood Angels have a flaw (their Black
Rage) however this is a misconception. The psychic deathcry of
our Primarch aboard Horus's Battlebarge was
so powerful that it reaches across time and resonates (sometimes)
among those who have his geneseed - Blood
Angels (when focused in prayer - often before battle) are sometimes
overwhelmed by visions of the experienced
which Sanguinius endured in his last days fighting to protect
the Emperor and especially his last hours aboard
Horus's Battlebarge. We each know all too well of our Primarch's
sacrifice, and we each will gladly give our life
in the effort to serve. The Emperor is flesh, the Primarchs his
children and we are their offspring. His
righteousness and power are beyond measure - he will rule forever,
and we will serve him forever.
How's that for an answer? We should have called this email "interview
with a Blood Angel" :-)

Welcome to the Dark Side . (3 Replies).
chasgamoth[]. 2/24/2002 0:39 (2/24/2002 11:43)
Greetings Brother Edward,
No Khornate warriors have put in their two cents yet, so I guess
it's my ball now.
I just played in a 1000-point tournament today, 3 rounds, and
went undefeated with a World Eaters list. So I'll
post my list and say what I did and how it all worked out.
HQ
World Eaters Mighty Champion with MoK, Lightning Claws, Meltabombs,
Spiky Bits
I would've gone with an Exalted Champ, but I was working on shaving
points down. Frankly, I intended to dish
out pain rather than take it, and except for Wounds, the stat
lines are the same. 4 S5 attacks, re-rolling one
attack and all wounding rolls makes for a pretty mean assault
punch for just 90 points.
Elites
5-man WE Possessed squad in Rhino with Smoke Launchers, Extra
Armor, Destroyer
I really should use a bigger squad of these guys, but I was trying
something new (wanted to save points for
heavy support) and decided they would at least give my opponents
something else to shoot at. Besides, there's
always the chance of getting power weapons and invulnerable as
their powers...
Troops
2x8-man WE Berzerker squads, each with Champion (free) with MoK,
Axe of Khorne, Spiky Bits,
Meltabombs; 2 Plasma Pistols, Rhino with Smoke Launchers, Extra
Armor, Destroyer
Ah, the meat of the army. World Eaters Berzerkers are deadly assault
troops, with their chainaxe rule (mmm,
choppa), insane number of attacks, and sheer bloody-minded determination.
I always give my champs Axes of
Khorne rather than normal power weapons because it's characterful,
and because at least once a game I tend to
roll a ridiculous string of 6s.
Heavy Support
WE Dreadnought with TL Lascannon, TL Bolters, CCW, Extra Armor
I love this guy. In an infantry army a dread doesn't last, since
he gets picked out by every antitank weapon
around, but when he's in a force with 3 APCs, he suddenly becomes
a low lascannoning priority and can
actually survive and do some decent harm to things. The lascannon
gives handy long-range anti-vehicular aid to
my World Eaters without compromising their character as an assault
army, as the Dreadnought stomps forward
hoping to blood-rage into an assault for 7(!) S10 power weapon
attacks.
My normal tactic is a straight-on punch in force. I will try to
deploy my Rhinos behind cover (hull-down or,
better yet, out of sight altogether), with the Dread on one flank.
I've taken to deploying my troops behind their
Rhinos so that, on turn 1, they can get in and go even if they
fail their blood frenzy rolls. This also prevents
whole squads being popped by ordnance "6" results on turn 1,
before I have the chance to pop smoke. I will
always opt to go first against shooty armies (so I can close
as fast as possible) and usually second against
assault armies (so they either have to waste a turn or come to
me so I can jump on them).
Turn 1 I rush forward headlong, using all my smoke launchers,
ignoring cover unless it's obvious and handy (in
which case I'll save my smoke). The Dread stomps forward on the
flank. If he fire frenzies, I'll take bolter hits
on my vehicles (which will be closer) and save the lascannon
hits for nearby enemies.
Turn 2, any Rhinos still mobile move up to assault range and unload
their cargo of death. The Chaos Lord
usually rides with a 'zerker squad, especially if the Possessed
got "daemonic speed" (he couldn't keep up). I
blast any vehicles I can with plasma pistols (and the Dread's
lascannon), then assault pretty much whatever I
can. Even Genestealers will go down before a determined assault.
Today, for example, I managed to
simultaneously assault a 24-strong Hormagaunt pack with all 3
of my main units. The Gaunts killed one
Possessed. I killed 24 Gaunts and swept on. The next combat phase
saw my Chaos Lord mow down one
injured Ravener and two healthy ones single-handed, in exchange
for three of his squad.
Turns 3 and onward I will concentrate on hacking down enemy infantry
and running over them if at all possible
(I love the Destroyer). Hopefully the Dread will pile in around
turn 4-5 and add his might to the combat. At this
point all order has usually dissolved into a chaotic melee--just
what the children of Khorne love.
There's what works for me. Blood for the Blood God!

take plenty of berzerkers, a dread or two, and beef up your lord
& retinue as much as possible after that... oh
and bloodletters & juggers are really good, especially juggers
take rhinos with destroyer, it works remarkably well for eldar,
imperial guard, orks and nids,

Ok, here's what works well for whacking bugs.
Little Bugs (Gaunts, Genestealers):
Berzerkers have the sheer number of attacks necessary to pulp
Gaunts like you wouldn't believe. They'll win
against Gaunt mobs that outnumber them, even 2-3 to 1. For Genestealers,
Bloodletters work very well. Their 2
S5 attacks can do good damage against them and they have an invulnerable
save against those damnable
rending claws. A Dreadnaught is a waste against Gaunts--you'll
never kill all of them--but Rhinos work
wonders. Arm with a Destroyer and plow straight through, hitting
as many as possible. You'll kill roughly half the
Gaunts you hit. It's beautiful. A beefed retinue will hack down
Gaunts, but tends to lose more than you can
afford against Genestealers.
Big Bugs (Carnifex, Tyrant, Raveners):
For these guys, high strength is a must. Berzerker champions
with Axes of Khorne can sometimes do surprising
things (one of mine once hacked down a Carnifex single-handed
by getting 8 hits) but you can't count on them.
Raveners can be killed by Berzerkers, but for the really big
stuff, you want big things of your own. A
blood-raging Chaos Dread is a good way to pop a Carnifex (7 S10
attacks before the Carni gets to swing), but
it's risky, since the fex will mow down the Dread if it ever
gets a chance. A big Chaos Lord with MC lightning
claws and spiky bits is a better bet. He should get at least
2 wounds on the fex and, with an Axe of
Khorne-armed Champion, between them they ought to put it down.
If you should get power weapon,
invulnerable Possessed, these guys are death on the big bugs,
especially the slow-moving Carnifex. With their
S5 power weapons they can chew through even big critters with
ease.
Plasma pistols are a must, for smacking down things like Tyrant
Guard and wounding larger bugs. I usually arm
my Dread with a TL Lascannon but a Plasma Cannon is also a good
choice. Bolt-pistol Genestealers if at all
possible to cut down their numbers before closing--the fewer
dice your opponent gets, the fewer rending claw
6s there'll be.
Blood for the Blood God!

My Nurgle tactics . (0 Replies).
aradiel69[]. 2/24/2002 4:26 (2/24/2002 4:26)
Ok now my Nurgle army is very much assault based as I used to
play blood angels so I got into the habit of
liking assault.
my basic army setup in my lord with his retinue of 6 plague marines
(2 of them aspiring champions and one with
a plague banner) all with bp/ccw, one with a meltagun in a rhino,
my great unclean one, 7 possessed with
bp/ccw in a rhino, 7 plague marines with bp/ccw including 1 aspiring
champion and 1 metlagunner, 2 packs of 7
plague bearer, 7 nurgling bases and a Nurgle infested dreadnought.
My basic tactic is to get into assault as fast as possible, I
usually plan to be in assault by turn 2 or 3 so then I can
have my daemons helping out. how I usually deploy is with my
dreadnought out in the middle to draw as much
firepower as possible (he is damn hard and never dies), then
I set my lord, possessed and plague marines
rhino's up behind cover ready to drive up the battlefield. first
turn is usually my rhinos driving up popping smoke
as they go with my dreadnought lay down fire as he advances (I
place my nurgling bases just behind my
dreadnought so if he fire frenzies he will just hit the nurglings,
and usually when he is close to the enemy when I
want him to fire frenzy the enemy has already killed the nurgling
leaving him free to fire frenzy into the enemy).
second turn I try to summon my lesser daemons off my lead rhinos,
usually scattering with in range of some of
the flank units and charging them tying them up till my other
squads can get to them to finish them off. about turn
3 is when my major assaults take place with my lord going after
most powerful squad (usually termies or honour
guard) letting off the plague banner as they charge (D6 wounds,
no armour save and the Nurgle player chooses
who dies) then my lord with his plague sword and the 2 aspiring
champions with their power weapons finish the
rest of the squad off. my possessed it varies on who they assault
by what they roll on the possession table but I
play deathguard so they always get fearsome so I try to get for
a unit that isn't fearless. my plague marines just
charge whoever is left. then sometime around now my great unclean
one shows up and totally fails to do
anything and dies horribly, but at least he is trying 8-). and
basically I just continue to charge until everything is
dead. the only problem my army does have is a lack of firepower
with only the 2 meltaguns and the twin-linked
lascannon on my dread but I find that does ok for most battles.
my tactics are abit cheap but they are effective, especially if
I get good daemon drops and if they waste most
their firepower on my dread.
as always, check out my website for picture, fiction and army
list for my Nurgle army at:
http://crash.ihug.co.nz/~rich-mac/40k/
P.S, I am remaking my Nurgle infested dreadnought, I will be using
the metal chaos dreadnought chassis and a
lot of green stuff, I am currently looking for ideas on what
to sculpt on it.

Raptors - expensive, but awesome. Hug the cover before striking
a slow enemy. If you win, they flee
automatically! If not, just break combat, if youre lucky, they
will get back into cover!
Preadator - My quadra lascannon, possessed preadator is invaluable
for wraithlord huntin'
Bloodthirster - expensive, random, but an absoulte monster in
HTH. Good for facing the evil wraithlords. You
need lotsa champs, though, so not much use in small battles.
Chaos Marines - Its obvious, but these guys are great. They can
be either CC oriented or shooty, and are very
good for a troop choice.
possesed marines - if you are lucky, these guys are AMAZING. If
not, they can be a bit dissapointing. Still,
very chaotic.
Cultists - excellent screening unit, and can have a lot of firepower
for relativley low cost. Everyones fav,
methinks.

World Eaters Tactics . (0 Replies).
gauss[gauss46@hotmail.com]. 2/24/2002 12:47 (2/24/2002 12:47)
Here's a few lessons I've learned with World Eaters:
1. Rhinos are a near-essential part of the army. Anything which
gives you a chance to spill blood faster has to be
a good thing!
2. No matter how much you want to get into hand-to-hand, be sure
to use some form of cover along the way.
In most cases survivability is more important than speed.
3. Power fists are a good thing to have for your Aspiring Champions.
Punching through armor and Wraithlords
is always a good thing.
4. Don't take a single big target, ie a Dreadnought, and if you
do keep it in cover until you need it.
5. Juggernauts are incredibly nasty Daemons. If you can afford
to I recommend picking up a few, say three to a
squad (any more and they won't fit on the Summoning template).
6. If you don't use the actual World Eaters rules, bringing along
some normal Chaos Marines or Havocs for
firepower may serve you well. Damnable, but true.
7. Large squads of Cultists make excellent human shields should
you lack a Rhino.
8. Bloodletters are only useful if you remember to summon them.

Things you want to have in a cult army
Rhinos for almost every squad
Dreadnoughts as heavys, but you must have other things for the
anti tank wepons to fire at. Like lots of rhinos.
Mostly basic troops, and lots of them.
"cheep" but powerful hqs
other then world eaters you can't take bikes, but WE bikes are
great. Just don't take them in non-cult armies.
Things you don't want
lots of points in one place. Only EC should take a maxed out
champ.
hq squads, just take a champ then put him in a squad. don't glue
him to one.
Daemons are good but not in disproportionate numbers.

++++ my chaos army was slowly made over many months of (in all
honesty) buying minis I thought were cool
:-) I have a bunch of chaos space marines, Khorne berserkers,
plague marines, some terminators, and an odd
selection of specialty minis (no vehicles yet though) but basically
I have the units that are found in most ANY
chaos army - so now with only a modest investment I can field
any of the chaos army variants - right now I'm
investigating Nurgle, got myself the great Unclean one, some
nurglings, some plague bearers (plague armies are
just fun to paint!) - basically I say go for a blend of things
so that you can be flexible, then specialize in whatever
interests you :-) I think the nurgle army really caught my interest
though because I had not played against them
until recently - and discovered how amazingly tough plague marines
were! So this being a new challenge - I
wanted to dive into it and see what's what! :-)
My background with the Blood Angels has made me fairly familiar
with the strategies of Khornate armies, and
later I'll hit tzentch and slaanesh variants :-)
that's about all I know! I hope this helped! :-)

What's this!? BA hath turned from the rotting corpse the Imperium
calls Emperor? Hmm I'm not so sure about
this but I'll take his word...for the moment. :D
Well first of all my main army is Worldeaters and I usually run
1500 pts. Well my main tactic is very simple
actually, CHARGE!!!!! I run two squads of 8 WE Bezerkers on foot
each w/an Axe of Khorne toting Asp.
Champ. and a squad of 8 Chosen of Khorne in a Rhino. I run these
up toward the enemey while recieving
covering fire from a WE Dreadnought w/Plasma Cannon and a Preadator
Anhilator w/Twin Linked Lascannons
and Heavy Bolters. Once my guys get close enough the plan is
for the daemons (8 Bloodletter and 5 Flesh
Hounds) to jump out and assit them. Oh and of course as all this
is going on my DP (Axe of Khorne, Daemonic
Armour, Rune of Chaos, and Wings) is flying up the middle taking
advantage of the Shooting at Independent
Character Rule. And once he gets there w/the rest things usually
go my way. :D Alas, things do not always go as
planned.
Anyway that's my general strategy.

my tactic is straight forward. get to them as soon as possible.
if it can carry troops and move 12" then it is in my
army. i play wordbearers and use alot of flamers, meltaguns,
plasmeguns, multimeltas,(the burning truth of
choas) and lascannons( the beaken in the dark galaxy of the imperium).
mark of choice is chaos
undivided(rerole those failed leadership test). i do like bikers
quick burning death of the melta gun is great for
chasing down those imperial tanks(yes i did chase a whirlwind
around a table with a lone biker). raptors,
something about being able to bring four plasm guns to a fight
in a 5 man squad. but most importantly is the
terminators!! ecery race i fight fears my termies. (a 2000pt
army of tau shot at my termies and had to even use
rail guns again them to kill them).do not forget that sorcerer
with the doom bolt(walking heavy bolter). that is my
version of the chaos army.
ps. chaos does one thing better that almost any other amry assualt
assault assault. almost all chaos armies are set
to assault.

2/24/2002 23:43 (2/24/2002 23:43)
My favorite troops in the chaos army are the veterans, Plague
Marines, Possesed, bikers and raptors and here's
why:
Veterans: These guy's are probably the most versatile in the 40K
world, not only can they take two heavy
weapons or special weapons, they also can choose to have a transport
, two CCw or bolter and most of all
they can infiltrate. This adds up to the fact that they can be
used for any role on the battlefield: as a spearhead in
a rhino with double melta guns or flamers (*WHoooossh*)
or infiltrating with two autocannons for taking out lighter tanks
or Landspeeder or Tank destroyers with twin
lascannons or MLauncher.
Plague Marines: These guy's are just rock hard in assaults with
T5 and blightGrenades.
Possesed: Are such a fun unit and so chaotic although expensive.
Mostly I like them for the fun of making and painting them, but
they can have a devastating effect in CC I
probably would take 9 of these than a souped up retinue for my
lord
Bikers: Fast moving, hardhitting and good firepower whats not
to
like about them maybe the pts cost but i think they are worth
them, the rapid firing plasma gun hurts.
Raptors: Same as possesed but these can have a tremendous impact
if played correctly, the fearsome charge is
never to be underestimated. I killed a BloodAngel librarian with
honour guard with five of them (Crossfire of
course), can also have a lot of firepower.
Time is 05.43 AM here so I'm a bit tired. But if I think of some
more I'll post it.

Well, from my experience with nurgle, they have some of the best
assault troops in the game!! The nurgle
marines with plauge knife and cc weapon are downright obscene
in hth, take a marine assault squad 4-5 turns to
wipe em all out!!!!, add to that the fact theyll probably wipe
the assault squad out with the awesome plauge
sword on the champions! Against tyranid the followers of Papa
Nurgle are extremely effective!!!! we nids think
we are the toughest, well move over hehe. And the plauge sword
makes the monsterous creatures shake in their
boots! Add to this their vehicle upgrade nurgle infestation,
its turns predators front armor into land raiders front
armor!!!! and also makes rhinos much more difficult to kill.
The terminators of nurgle are also quite fearsome,
they are very difficult to kill with toughness 5. I have a special
tactic with them in deep strike scenarios, I give all
my terminators combi flamers and when i deep strike in i let
loose with SEVEN flamers, needless to say, that
destroys entire squads of most thing with ease. Ive destroyed
an entire ork boy mob of 32 with this tactic!!!
And since they are very tough and have a 2+ save they can usually
surivive the enemies shooting phase :-) My
old nurgle army defeated my tyranid army quite regularly, and
my nid army has VERY few losses to its credit.
Also nurgle squads make highly effective shooting squads, armed
with their bolters they can easily take care of
most other assault armies while taking very few casualties from
shooting themselves. This works especially well
when you are screening for several havoc squads, and/or veteran
squads. All in all nurgle armies are HIGHLY
flexible, and can perform either function(shooting or assaulting)
quite well. And if you ever need to take a
position and hold it, these disgusting piles of filth are the
best around!!!!
Sorry Papa Nurgle, but Khorne is more my style
(sold my nurgle army for my khorne army, not cuz it wasnt good,
but cause its not my style)

Flesh for the flayer,
Skulls for the skull throne,

Vanilla Tactics . (0 Replies).
Lordof[]. 2/25/2002 5:00 (2/25/2002 5:00)
Tactics....
Hmmm first get a nasty HtH lord who can move about quickly (jetpack,
bike, rhino, Landraider)
Then get a very solid shooting core (Standard marines and havoc
squads)
Then get a very solid HtH core (possessed)
And then use the rest of your points to deal with any challenges
that may come your way (WL Armour 14 tanks
capture table quarters etc.)
This is of course for a Vanilla Chaos Force
The force's tactic vary from enemy to enemy for a footslogger
ork army sit back and shoot and allow your lord
and possessed to bolster your line against attack
Against marines use your Marines to shoot up a flank for a rapid
strike by your lord and possessed
Also never ever forget a distraction
If your possessed are getting shot at heaps move them far out
to a flank and behind cover to get your opponent
to redeploy his forces to cover this threat
Another good one is the Landraider this tank is a fire magnet
give it smoke launchers and move it 12 inches first
turn and fire the smoke launchers. After that move 12 inches
again and use the machine spirit to fire the Heavy
bolters as more of an annoyance. If it lives to reach the other
side of the board drive it behind his lines to get
crossfires and make all sorts of comments on how well it is performing
against him to get him to want to hit it
with more weapons and kill it.

+++perhaps, who knows, but it would be nice to replay the horus
heresy :))
After the release of the new minis (next months WD), i think that
i will start collecting Black legion. I already
have Abbadon (its a sin not to have him). I think it will be
fun to collect the army made up of completely new
minis :)
At the moment i play two armies, World Eaters (complete devotion
to Khorne) and Iron Warriors (a little more
versatitlity:) I prefer big games, of 2000+ points and depending
on my mood, ill choose my army. Recently i
played a 2400 pt battle against those pesky greenskins. It was
a made up cenario and i used to IW (havent
used them for a while, so thought that id shooth the hell out
of the orks:) My basic tactic was to soften them up
with some heavy firepower (coming from 2 vet. squads with 2 missile
launchers and 2 heavy bolters, 2 CSM
squads with 2 lascannons and ofcourse my precious basilisk:D
) then when they got close, my squad of Khorne
Berzerkers and my Fallen Angels charged right in, pounding those
little greenskins.
If i play smalll battles, i usually play with WE cos they have
daemons and juggers (and those are my favourite :))
Those are my 2 cents

these are the best cultists in the respect that you can make
them fearless with the rapturous standard. put them in
squads of 40 and 50, give 4 to five cultists melta guns or plasma
guns or heavy bolters , keep pushing them up
and trust me your enemey will be in so much trouble because you
can
a)swamp his best units or characters so that they get very few
points back and i mean very few.
b) destroy tanks , i know they have ballistic skill 2 but remember
you can have 5 meltaguns in a 50 man squad
now thats
5 shots one of them is gonna hit.
c) screen your important units with a land raider and 150 cultists
you can easily decieve your enememy into
thinking that your cultists and land raider are the real threat
, then the
possessed marines , terminators , assault troops and chaos lord
get into hth then their in trouble.
d) throw a greater deamon of slannesh onto the table , those
demagogues are good for being possessed instead of 100 pts character
model.

this is my favorite hq choice in the game , it costs a lot but
is cool to use.
have a chaos lord with a beast of nurgle , plague sword , plasma
pistol and blight grenades. and give him six plague marines and
a rhino (nurgle infested with extra armor and smoke bombs)
make three of those plague marines champions and give them plague
swords , bolt pistols and blight grenades,
give the regular guys blight grenades and one of them a melta
gun.
(don't forget that mark of nurgle)
ok so you get a fearless retinue, three of the moedels get
a beast of nurgle that can absorb those first few deadly hits
all your guys have toughness 5 and when charging will get the
blight grenades bonus, the -1 to hit when you
charge the enemy and he rolls to attack. the beasts have toughness
5 and best of all plague swords , the coolest
close combat weapon in the game
in some respects.
it costs a lot but oh boy the damage you will do.

well...mix firepower with the irresistable obstacle, and you
got the 1000sons list. Like that bolter because it is a
good weapon to take out lots of weak troops? Like it even more
if shot as standing still while moving. core
troops with T4, AS3+, 2 wounds and immunity to S1-4 ranged weapons,
with a fearless sorcerer carrying a
lasgun for nothing (if troops consists of 9 models)?
Against IG, DE or exspecially eldar, 1000sons are a serious thread.
And think of the enemy's face if you
summon your changer of ways out of this troop he just charged
on a 4+!
even the deamons have firepower! The cybots are stoically ignoring
their frenzy while being possessed for only
half the points!
and the first cheesy rule-knack : a retinue my upgrade as many
models to sorcerers as the player likes, for the
cost given to the left-->15 points or 0 (!!!!!) points if troop
consists of 9 models!!! A retinue of 7 sorcerers in
termie-armor, with powerweapons and synch-bolters/lasguns for
76 points/model, plus one standart bearer for
immunity to S4 weapons?

Cultists are the keyword. Take 150-200 Cultists and equip the
guys with Flamers (10 Cultists = Special
Weapon) if you know that you´re getting assaultet. (World
Eaters, Blood Angels, Bugs...) Burn baby burn...
hehe... That´s really nasty! Who care´s about the
BS with a flamer... If you´re facing many vehicles or heavy
armored troops you should give them Meltaguns. Only a few will
hit, but someone WILL hit! ;) If you don´t
know what will happen take Plasmaguns. If you equip the Cultists
in this way you have to move straight towards
the enemy! He´ll have a lot of trouble with the masses
of Cultists, because they are unbreakable. (Rapturous
Standard) Another possibility is to wait for the enemy and killing
him on his way with a combo of Autocannons
and Heavy Stubbers.
Don´t forget to buy the Demagogues for possesing and for
the Melterbombs...
The Lord and his retinue with the standard should walk within
the Cultists. Noise Marines (without Blastmaster)
can lay a hail of fire while you´re advancing and CSM with
CCW can prepare to assault. Veterans, Havocs and
Noise Marines (with Blastmaster)should kill the tanks first (tank
shock...), then dreads, heavily armoured troops
and as many ordinary troops! 10 Terminators aren´t as dangerous
as 30 fully equiped Space Marines... Don´t
forget the Greater Daemon as additional "present".
Good luck!

Well, I use Khorne and Undivided units in my army, with a tiny
bit of Nurgle, but in the future I'm planning to get
more Nurgle units (and more Khorne as well). Here's some things
I really like:
Cultists. Great cannon fodder! Effective at blocking the opponent's
LoS to several of your units.
Possessed marines. One of the very few squads that has never
let me down in any of my battles. They are well
worth their 30 pts per model.
Daemon Prince. My DP has a MoK, JoK, and Rune of Chaos as his
standard equipment, usually with an AoK
as well and sometimes with another upgrade like Daemon Weapon.
He is really powerfull, see his modified
statline: WS6 BS3 S8 (if using Daemon Weapon, otherwise it's
6) T6 W3 I5 Ld 10 Sv5+ (can be 3+ if
Daemon Armour)
Predator with lascannons and Nurgle Infestation. The lascannons
don't work for me the way they should (I hope
they work for everyone else), but still 3 lascannons (of which
one is linked) and Front Armour 14 is pretty good
for 180 pts.
Juggernauts of Khorne. I only have one at this time but it's
possible to have 5 in one pack! Unless they're
fighting power armoured units they'll rip through the enemy with
ease, but be carefull, despite their T6 they tend
to die easily by enemy shooting (I once lost his first wound
by a plasma pistol and the second by a lasgun, no
not a typo: a lasGUN!!!).
Berzerker squads are great in cc!!! especially in large numbers.
Raptors, and especially bikes are great for making swift attacks
against opponents that must be destroyed
quickly like really scary tank. You can have 3 meltaguns in a
bike squad, so that takes care of any vehicle if
you're close to it!!
I hope this helps you a little. BTW I'm glad that someone who
used to be loyal to the False emperor has joined
us!

Well, I play Night Lords. They are pretty fun and can do some
damage if you can make it click. I can't type
everything i've typed before, but if you look for a thread called
The Forbidden Tome:Chaos Space Marine
Tactical Thread you should find all you wanted to know about
my theories...
If you want I can Copy/Paste it back here...

OK i have a problem here.i dunno what to get.
here are the units i have for both armies just a few so keep that
in mind.
Khorne:
2 juggers and riders have axes of khorne(is that legal?i havent
gotten the codex yet cause im short on money)
2 boxed sets of berserkers
2 rhinos
Nurgle:
6 termies.assorted weapons.motsly combined with melta or flamer.one
autocannon.
3 nurgle marine boxed sets
dreadnought
i have a chaos lord but i dunno who it is going to.
i love Khorne models and thier blood thirst and ideas and everything.BUT
even with cover your still gonna get
your ass shoot off and owned by termies even with choppas.
I really like nurgle too.i am converting a termie lord(abbadon)
for them and giving him a plague sword and mark
of nurgle.(i think that gives him 5 or 6 thoughness i dont know)also
i love the plague marines in CC.they
own.even against normal squads.
i am tryin to find out a few other things too. Like for expamplewhat
spiky bits are and what they do.can juggers
receive axes of khorne.what do people use for possesed models
and are they really that good? these are some
things i have been wondering and any insites would be thankfully
rewarded.

Both gods are good, but i say stick to the Blood God! :D The
KB are very good in CC and their special rules
are also cool. I think that their IA is in WD263.
Nurgle is alittle more versatile but also good to play. Their
rules were publushed in WD265, i think but not too
sure.
With nurgle youll have to convert alot cos the old models for
plague marines arent too good. The new ones for
KB are alot better IMO. But the conversion bits are up to u.

Jeggers can be givern as a gift to a character for 50pts (the
rider gets +2T and +2A), or you can have the
juggers as a separate squad, having 1-5 models in it. Spiky bits
let you re-roll one failed To Hit dice in CC. And
possessed are REAL good! never let me down.
