If you have been paying attention to the latest rumors and current GW spotlights then you know they are right around the corner. Sorry but that's not what this article is about...Fooled Ya! This is really about Chaos Space Marine's. So before they disappear in the shadow of the new Dark Angels codex and are forgotten...


There have been lots of reviews on the codex. Everybody's been giving their 2 cents about the units and what not. There is a ton of info out there if you care to look for it. There have been plenty of battle reports with Puritan lists and with allies. I'm not going to rehash all of that.The thing I keep noticing amongst all the reviews and battle reports is that they win some and they lose some, there doesn't seem to be any real dominating Puritan lists. Allied lists seem to be alot better than puritan lists, The CSM codex is certainly no GK or Necron codex.


So with all that said I want to remind everyone that I'm looking for a competitive pure CSM tourney list. The codex has lots of options, lots of themed lists, lots of fun things to play around with in a fluff kind of way. It seems from what I've read that many others out there doing reviews and what not think the same. But I am not deterred and have put together a list that I think will do the job. I have my first test game today against Hand of Dume. I'm not sure what he is bring, but that's a good thing as it helps to simulate the random pairings of the tournament first round.


I've tried to build this list with GK and Daemons in mind as they seem to the armies that give me some trouble (just like everyone else). Look for the battle report and my list composition in the next day or so in the forums battle report section to see how the first test game went.
