Topic: Half of a 2k Team Tourny

[Shade, Bankai King]

This is a 1000 point army to use as half of a total 2000 point army for a team tourny. I am using my chaos, my partner is using Tyranids. His List.


HQ

Chaos Lord- MoS, Blissgiver, Bike

Troops

10 Chaos Marines- 2 meltaguns, Icon of Chaos Glory, Champ w/Power fist-220pts.

10 Chaos Marines- Heavy Bolter, Icon of Chaos Glory, Champ w/Powerfist-210pts.

6 Chaos Marines-Meltagun-100pts.

5 Emporers Children-Blastmaster-120pts.

Heavy Support

Predator-Tri-Lascannon, Daemonic Possession-185pts

I'm thinkin of dropping the two small squads and either adding in another Lord, or some Chosen with meltaguns. The Pred plans on staying still all game shootin the few tanks that will be there.

I have left over that I can use-
1 Daemon Prince
Terminator Lord-Daemon Weapon
Lord-Jump Pack, Lighting Claws
5 Termies-Autocannon, Champ w/Pair of Lightning Claws, Chainfist
19 Marines-Bolters
1 Marine-Heavy Bolter
1 Marine- Meltagun
2 Champs- Powerfists
2 Spawn

My question to you is what is your teammate's nid army comprised of?  I'm assuming its CC oriented.  If thats the case I would focus your 1,000 points on units that can support the nid's advance.  I would probably invest in more heavy support and a few squads that provide medium to close fire support. The best way for you guys to win would be to tailor the nids to their strengths (cc) and make your force play the role that is generally the nids weakness.  Make sure you have anti-tank cuz that can give the bugs trouble sometimes.

The reason I say the nids should be the combat wing of your combined army is b/c they have some of the best units for that in the game and Chaos can be very flexible.  Or you can throw everybody a curve ball and do shooty nidzilla with a close combat chaos force!

I linked to his list in the first paragraph. In total we are only allowed three heavy support. So with him having two I can only have one.
