Default Word Bearers; 2000

As I have previously stated I'm on the lookout for a new army. One of those which has caught my mind's eye are the Word Bearers; I like their fluff and I think they'd lend themselves really well to conversion - especially with that Black Templar sprue. Those chained weapons are so Chaotic...

Anyways, whipped up a list today. One... two... tear it apart!

HQ
Dark Apostle - 198 pts
Chaos Lord with MoCU, Demagogue, terminator armor, Accursed Crozius, combi-bolter, spiky bits, daemonic strength, daemonic resiliance, daemonic mutation

Elites
Chosen Retinue - 206 pts
Terminator Chosen with the MoCU, chainfist, combi-bolter
Termie Chosen with MoCU, lightning claw, combi-bolter
Termie Chosen with MoCU, power weapon, reaper autocannon
Termie Chosen with MoCU, power weapon, combi-bolter, Daemon Icon

Obliterator Cult - 210 pts
3 Obliterators

Troops
Chaos Space Marines - 192 pts
Aspiring Champion with MoCU, powerfist, bolt pistol, infiltrate
CSM with MoCU, plasma pistol, infiltrate
CSM with MoCU, meltagun, infiltrate
5 CSMs with MoCU, pistol + CCW, infiltrate
(Squad x3)

Daemonettes - 90 pts
6 Daemonettes
(Squad x4)

Fast Attack
Mounted Daemonettes - 186 pts
6 Mounted Daemonettes

Heavy Support
Land Raider - 280 pts
Land Raider with Blasphemous Rune, Warp Amp
_______

So, howzit? You can take Marked vehicles in a WB army, right? It doesn't say you cant...

Yes, I want to keep the Terminators and Land Raider. Switch everything else up, please!

Personally, I wouldn't take two Land Raiders. If you want anti-tank, take a 3 Lascannon/Autocannon + 2 Lascannon Predator instead. Just keep one for your Terminator transport, if that was what you were plannng on doing.

Oh. Oops. Nevermind that comment then.

I would replace the Plasma Pistol on the Marine squad with a Plasmagun or Bolt Pistol.

Plasma Pistols are too short-ranged to shoot, and you would never shoot it if in assault. If you want assault, just stick with the cheaper Bolt Pistol. If you want to shoot, stick with the longer range, rapid fire Plasmagun.
