First attempt at Chaos Knights (2000pts)

[GenerationTerrorist]

New Year, so am looking to start a new project, now that my Raven Guard is complete.

 

This is a little idea I had for a 2000pt Chaos Knights list. My first go/idea, so any feedback would be appreciated.

 

I have the Armigers already (from Forgebane) so just any advice on the Big Boys would help!

I like it, are you considering a Tyrant as well? Despite the points, I like it's dakka output on paper.

Cheers mate.

If the project takes hold, and I fancy upping the list to play some 3000pt games, then yes...

I would take the Flamer/Harpoon Tyrant with the Nurgle "Deflect" Relic and give him the +1A Trait for extra Stomps. He'd be a total Bullet-Magnet and a potential Horde-Killer!

 

To do this this, I would also move the Tyrant and the Armigers to a separate Super Heavy Detachment and make the Armigers into units of 3.

 

This would give me 10CP to play with (Extra Relic and Warlord Trait).

Regarding the original list, I am unsure whether to keep the CC Despoilers or take them as Desecrators....Does the extra 1A on the Despoilers outweigh the re-roll buffs on the Armigers that the Desecrators would bring?
