| So as the title says I require some assistance to say the least. I'm working on my Thousand Sons army at the moment and have 57 points left to kill but have no idea what to kill them on.
The list comprises of-
HQ: Ahriman- 250 pts
TROOPS: 1k sons squad-x8, sorcerer, warptime, rhino- 269 pts
TROOPS: 1k sons squad-x8, sorcerer, warptime, rhino- 269 pts
TROOPS: 1k sons squad-x8, sorcerer, warptime, rhino- 269 pts
ELITES: termi squad- x5, x2 combi weapons, x2 power fists, chainfist, reaper autocannon, icon of tzeentch -255 pts
HEAVY: predator- autocannon, HB sponsons- 100 pts
HEAVY: predator- twin las, sponson las- 165 pts
HEAVY: land raider- 220 pts
Well... any ideas? | |

| What Codex are you using?
I tried plugging your army into Army Builder to fudge around some points and your squad costs aren't adding up.
TROOPS: 1k sons squad-x8, sorcerer, warptime, rhino- 269 pts is 281 points that is with 7 troopers and a Sorcerer. With 8 and a Scorcerer its 304, I wasnt sure cause of the way you typed it out what one you wanted, guessing 9 cause that is the Tzeentch number.
ELITES: termi squad- x5, x2 combi weapons, x2 power fists, chainfist, icon of tzeentch -255 pts is 230 with that kit out, and 240 if one was supposed to be a champion.
I am using army builder but will go back through the codex and add double check Army Builders numbers....
After plugging in your army like you have it posted above is 1877 points, and the largest problem with this list other than the banking clerical error is you have "no extra armor" on any of your transports and that is a must have. Your Preds can do without of need be but your LR and Rhinos have to have them it. | |

| Sorry for the poorness of posting the list. First off I'm using the C:CSM. The 1ksons squads have 8 rubric marines led by an aspiring sorcerer, the terminators have no champions. It appears that I'm going to have to redo the math for this list. | |

| Your LR, without a doubt, needs demonic possession. I also think the aspiring sorcerers need to change their warptime to bolt of change, it gives you anti-tank in each troop squad... 1k sons are not assault troops. | |

| Might change to powers to bolt of change. I'm not to big a fan of demonic possession. Would use it if it didn't kill you BS. | |

All your weapons are twin linked... AV 14 with possession will give your vehicle higher survivability, especially when most hits will glance. | |

| I have always enjoyed the potential of Gift of Chaos. Ahriman has it but a 2nd or 3rd helping couldn't hurt. Especially against T3 opponents. Weakens the opposing player while strengthening yours, plus it can cause havoc with carefully laid out firing lines or low Ld troops | |
