sounds like you might be no to something, but I'm full against chaos getting
a Thunder Hawk or any type of new flyers.

Engines

> Chaos Renegades:
> This force is a classic combined force of Marines, Cultists and

> Companies, Beastmen Companies and Troll/Minotaur Companies. Support Cards
> would again be Cultists, SOME IG equipment (restricted to no more than 3
IG

the

> Thunderhawks, Sorcerers, Titans and possibly Chaos Champions along the

> Raiding force or a Cultist uprising.
>
> Example Companies:
>
> Cultist Company:
> 1 Chaos Champion Stand, 3 detachments of 10 Cultist stands (30 stands
total)
> VP: 6 BP:15
> Cost: 600pts

> Beastman Company:
> 1 Chaos Champion Stand, 3 detachments of 10 Beastmen Stands (30 stands
total)
> VP:6 BP:15
> Cost: 600pts

> Chaos Beast Company:
> 1 Chaos Champion Stand, 2 Minotaur Detachments of 10 Minotaur Stands Each
> plus 1 detachment of 10 Troll Stands (20 minotaur stands and 10 troll

> VP:7 BP:15
> Cost: 700pts

> Chaos Marine Companies to follow.

> Unique Renegade Support Cards:

> Renegade Cultist Heavy Squad:

> VP:3 BP:5
> Cost: 300pts
