Slaanesh Biker List

[DrBored]

Hey all. Been trying to milk a Slaanesh theme out of the Chaos Marine Codex without allying Daemons. I have this idea that I think might be nice...

Not super competitive, but I like the idea of having lots of Blastmasters, Bikes, and a few flailing dreads on the table. What do you think?

I might see about filling out at least one of those Noise Marines squads to 10; even with 3+/FNP, five guys are going to fall down dead in a hurry. Possibly swap the BL Lord for a Sorcerer to find points, as the Slannesh spells are fairly handy.

The weakness here is that none of the squads have FNP... I could bump both squads up to 10-man (end up saving about 10 points per squad that way) and then give them FNP, but that'd make them super expensive, and my troop options would be rather limited at that point. I'd be depending entirely on those Cultists for the objectives, whereas moving a 5 man squad wouldn't be too risky...
