excuse me for my poor english
I'd drop the command from the knights (or the magic items from the character, BTW what does Slaughters blade do, I couldn't see it in the army book) and get a unit fo 5 chaos hounds. they're only 30 points and are a very versatile unit.

thanks

- also, you've written shields for your marauders twice. Is this a mistake or have you paid for them twice? Either way I'd ditch the light armour and shields and get flails instead. Also the maraudfer muso would be more useful in the horseman unit.

@corai, slaughterers blade is a beasts weapon, but your allowed to use beasts weapons on mortal characters if they do not have a "beast characters only" remark. It counts as a great weapon, allows you to regain a wound on 4+ for every wound you inflict, upto the starting wounds but these extra wounds dont count towards CR.

personally i think the chosen knights are huge points sink, unless you can support them better, otherwise theyll be stranded, get cut off, and brutalised, dont get me wrong, theyre devastating but when they take on the whole enemy force without support theyll get slaughtered.

so either stick with them, BEAR IN MIND THAT AS A UNIT OF 4 THEY ARE ILLEGAL. 5 MINIMUM. and get the marauder horsemen or get rid of the unit and go for warriors on foot instead

Chaos knights minimum unit size is indeed 4.

Thanks
