Well I'll be the first to say that it doesn't matter too much hat your opponents are using; if you want a 'proper' Khorne army, you want to dedicate your army to close combat; maybe with a little long range support thrown in.

Khorne Lords on Juggernaught, with the Axe of Blinding Fury are great. You'll want a medium/ big unit of Bikers to bodyguard him, or a unit of 4 - 5 spawn.

CSM squads and Berserkers are very similar in terms of damage in CC, so it depends on whether you want the extra ranged attacks, or Fearless; each unit has it's good points.

Khorne bikers can put out a lot of attacks and are very capable. Give them Plasma Guns/ Melta guns and have fun.

The rest of your list really depends on your play style, though taking one or two Heldrakes with  Baleflamers will certainly give you a very powerful start to an army against everything that doesn't have a 2+ save.

Total:    1996 Points

 

 

This is my list of choice and it has survived several battles since the codex came out. It is an allrounder and I love it just for that. The whole army has the Mark of Khorne and Veterans of the Long War, which if you face xenos you can drop and add an additional Obliterator.

 

Now a rundown:

 

Lord: Nasty bugger who deeps strikes with his terminators and deletes units. Best against masses. 

 

Terminators: The Delete unit of the army. Deep strike them close to something dangerous or valuable and use rapid fire plasma to kill it. Next turn just go nom nom.

 

Berzerkers: They are the screaming power armor shield that runs across the board. Somehow people concentrate to much on them and that is simply great.

 

Chaos Marines: Objective takes, holders and nasty buggers all. They can shoot, they can fight and they can support. The Swiss knife of the army.

 

Obliterators: 2 of them work as fire support, one is a deep strike multimelta ninja. All three can be ninjas too. Khrone + Powerfist = something dies

 

Helldrake: General nuisance for the enemy, MEQ concentrate insane firepower on it, too bad that the berzerkers than move unmolested. 

 

Havocs: Autocannons are great allrounders, cheap and effective. 

 

 

My 2 cents.

have you face IG Mech with it yet? And how has it fared if you have?

[Tenebris]

I have not faced an IG mech list but I have faced several times an ork trukk list, I have won two times and lost three times but it was well worth the experience. While I have six autocannons to pop up the transports if the adversary goes for armor saturation this list can have some problems. Hopefully the transports die to cannon fire but I always keep on my squads melta bombs just in case. It works better against Land Raiders since rarely you see more than two in a game but if you face five or more trukks it can be tricky.

 

I solved two times the problem with deep strike terminators and obliterators, but this is a one trick pony, if all goes well it gets the job done in a marvelous way, otherwise you are in for a rough ride. As for the Khorne army the ork players will too strive to get the first charge, the priority is to prevent it even if you have to sacrifice a berzerker unit for it.

 

On the other side as a long time IG player I know exactly what the adversary has on his side thus I would charge, and charge and charge again ripping transports in suicidal attacks. If all goes by plan the chimeras are dust, my berzerkers take the burnt of enemy fire, my chaos marines, terminators, flamer obliterators and the drake finish the guardsmen. If it does not go to plan...well we are the faithful of Khorne, our skulls are welcome too.  

 

All in all I do not advocate my list as great, but it is balanced for the gameplay in my gameclub. It gets the job done provided you plan accordingly.
