Thousand Sons

Ok, here's my first attempt at an army list of Thousand Sons. Seeing as they are meant to be a small, elite army, naturally I grabbed as many figures as humanly possible!! I decided to go Doombolt-heavy as I believe it is an EXCELLENT all round weapon, and fits in ideally with the theme of a slow, implacable army able to take and dish out horrendous amounts of firepower. Anyway, here goes:

HQ

Chaos Lieutenant
Gifts and Wargear
Dark Blade, Bolt Pistol, Daemon Strength, Daemon Mutation, Daemon Aura, Familiar (modelled in the form of a Trite from Doom 3 would you believe ), DoomBolt, Bolt Of Change
Total=171

Chosen Bodyguard
7 Chosen with Bolt Pistols and CC weapons and DoomBolt
1x Asipring Champion with Power Fist, Bolt Pistol, Inferno Bolts and Bolt of Change
Total=397

Troops

Thousand Sons Sqaud

8x Thousand Sons Marines
1x Sorcerer with Bolt of Change
Total=246

Thousand Sons Squad

8x Thousand Sons Marines
1x Sorcerer with Bolt of Change
Total=246

Thousand Sons Squad

8x thousand Sons Marines
1x Sorcerer with DoomBolt
Total=231

Heavy Support

Predator
Autocannon and 2x Heavy Bolters
Total=110

Predator
Twin-Linked Lascannon and 2x Lascannons
Total=145

GRAND TOTAL = 1546

I want to add a pack of Flamers od Tzeentch (Daemons) as these can add a horrendous amount of shots when supported by the Lieutenant and his Retinue. Any comments/critiscisms are welcome.

Lose the Chosen in favor of something more efficient, then get the list down to 1500.

You've placed too many points of demonic wargear on your lieutenant to make him legal. It has to be 50 or less.

The total of points in Daemonic wargear come up to 40...thats legal, the extra amount spent on Psychic Equipment does not add towards this total...unless, of course, I've misread somewhere....I quite like the Chosen in the wrmy list, as they fulfill most functions that i could wish for (Combat AND Shooting) and I'm doubtful that anything else in a Thousand Sons list would grant me the same flexibility.

I was also considering adding a Lord of Change to the Army. But I think for the stats he may be a tad pricey, but his pyschic ablilties are quite good and combat prowess should not be underestimated...Or I could just add more Sons....What you think?

Dark Blade counts as demonic wargear.

Lord of Change is prolly inferior to a dreadnought in terms of cc power, plus a dread give you more anti-tank.
