The update is due around May but will not likely include a change to the Firewarrior box (unless they add Pathfinder options to the main box which would be great.)

That said I am sticking with Forgeworld until after the launch or pictures of the new stuff appears.
 
Hi guys,

I was wondering if you can give me some tips on how to build my chaos space marine army. I am looking for a more 'fire power' kind of army the following list is what I have bought so far and I would like your thoughts on what to do next.

I don’t really have any point limits atm but I am rather new to the tactical side of things regarding army building lol

HQ
  • Daemon Prince + Chaos Lord

Troops
  • 9x Chaos Space Marines - 1x Heavy Bolter 1x Plasma Rifle
  • 1x Aspiring Champion - Plasma Pistol/Chain Sword
  • 30x Cultists
  • 1X Rhino

Elites
  • 1x Hellbrute
  • 5x Possessed Chaos Space Marines

Fast Attack
  • 3x Chaos Bikers
  • 5x Warp Talons
Heavy Support
??????
 
If you think of anything that I should not include in the list and replace I dont mind that being edited lol I was thinking more of the defiler or the other big gun one but I havent had chance to get into detail with them.

I think the main reason I am struggling is that I am not 100% clued up on the rules lol I dont get much chance to put them into practice. I learn more doing it/watching it rather than reading lol
 
I would say drop an HQ and get another CSM squad. Troop squads are very important for objective games and you're a little short on bodies on the ground. Not sure about the possessed, wouldn't 5 men without transport spend several turns running only to be shot before they reached combat?

I'm really tempted with Typhus as he can turn that squad of 30 Cultists into Zombies that have the slow and purposful, fearless and Feel no pain for free :) They lose the ability to shoot but can tie up other squads and hold objectives.

Also his stat line is as follows WS 6 BS 5 S4 T5 W4 I5 A3 LD10 Sv 2+

Terminator Armor, blight grenades, and the daemon weapon Manreaper, and has the following special rules: Fearless, Feel No Pain, Mark of Nurgle (already in profile), and is a Psyker with Mastery Level 2 (all Nurgle powers) and has Destroyer Hive ability.

On a charge he has 3+1+D6 attacks so between 5 and 10 attacks that can ignore all armor due to being total S6 and can make his attacks instant death. Hive Destroyer is a Large template attack centered around Typhus that is a Str4 Ap2 hit to everything under it (Typhus immune)

Not sure how viable the Zombies are but Im certainly considering taking Typhus as a HQ

Oh and Plague Marines become Troops :) HUZZAH!
