Army: Fzorgle Chaos Cookie Cutter
For posterity sake, I felt I would post my interpretation of the Fzorgle Chaos Cookie Cutter list. The Lash-tastic, Plague Marine and Obliterator spam list that was all the talk two years ago, when the Chaos Space Marine codex first came out. It seems it still has its place, and given the limited options in the Codex, we continuously see its variants on the field of play.
At 2000 points:
HQ
Daemon Prince (Wings, Mark of Slaanesh, Lash of Submission (aka Fzorgle))
Daemon Prince (Wings, Mark of Slaanesh, Lash of Submission)
Elite
3x Terminators (3x Combi-melta, Chainfist)
3x Terminators (3x Combi-melta) aka a "Termicide" Unit (the above is also a variant of such)
3x Terminators (3x Combi-melta)
Troops
5x Plague Marines (2x Meltaguns, Rhino)
5x Plague Marines (2x Meltaguns, Rhino)
5x Plague Marines (2x Meltaguns, Rhino)
5x Plague Marines (2x Meltaguns, Rhino)
Heavy Support
3x Obliterators
3x Obliterators
3x Obliterators
The layout for the Termicide units could be different, but the points were odd at 2000 so I decided to add a Chainfist to the mix. As you may already know, or can easily tell from above, this list is considered boring and cheesy by many players in the community. For a while, it was an incredibly viable list and still does well in some tournaments. It definitely has its weaknesses, and actually works better at lower point ranges.
At 1750, one could remove the Termicide units and add a couple Plague Marine models to each of the units, or a Plague Champion with a Powerfist to a couple of them.
At 1500, from 1750, drop one of the Obliterators from each of the 3 units, and tweak the Plague Marines such that you get to the proper point range. Alternatively, you could drop one of the Plague Marine squads at this point level and add in one of the Termicide units.
That's it. Simple but effective. It will annoy and frustrate the novice opponent, but will fall apart against other opponents. Still a good build for Chaos and I like to run this myself at the 1500 and 1750 level.
