now im not gona post points, im heading in the direction of collecting pretty much everything that would make sense with this army:
A few things: 1.) Tons of heavy weapons for smoking out cover seeking pansies (see imperial fists)
2.) Vindicator, and obliterators are a must
3.) Havocs, what loadout?
4.) Berkzerkers are in, reason being in Storm of Iron, the zerks in that book drove me to it...also why not? IW do enjoy close combat
5.) Definately terminators
6.) Warsmith in termie armor, and sorcerer
anything anyone wanna add?

I normally run my havocs between 6 to 8 bodies with 3 autocannons and a missile launcher plus an icon of chaos glory to keep them on the field. The oblits should be enough for to handle heavy armor and the autocannons are good against light armour, big bugs and now flyers. Plus chaos looks to be the first army to get the flak missile option.
I cannot wait for the new book to hit the shelves.

me either brother, they really need ity, and im stoked to see the new badass stuff theyll be cramming in..ill get some autocannon/ML havocs and see how they perform.
Im open to any other suggestions, prolly gonna stick to a configuration similar to what you recommended for the havocs, run one unit of thos, a unit of oblits and a vindi, just for IW im lost on fast attack choices, i need something that makes sense in terms of fluff

Be careful what you ask for Kevin. I may get soooo interested in Chaos that I build an army...which means GW will invalidate them and piss you off hehe.

Joe - Haha, touche!
Jeremy - As for chaos fast attack that fits into iron warriors? Going by the Black Library stuff i remember reading it looks like chaos spawn would be a fluffy choice but they would just guarantee first blood to your opponent. Otherwise i'd just skip the FA slot unless raptors get some loving in the new dex. I do have 10 raptors that i want to run with a chaos lord with wings but we'll see how viable that will be in the new book. All indications are that the book will be up for pre-order this weekend!
