I'm not sure what you mean by hard but here is the rundown of the Chaos
artillery options.

The Problem with The Cannons of Corn are that you have to roll the
Artillery Die for every shot which gives a 1 in 6 chance per shot of
them blowing up, and provided you are able to shoot you have to roll the
scatter die twice. There is also that little limitation of no indirect
fire. LOS range and -4 save are nice but not very useful if you always
scatter off. For 200 pts, this is as close to artillery as Chaos gets.

As for the Deamon Engines, they must be either on advance or charge and
the max range is 50cm. So once again no indirect and the deamon engines
have short ranges.

There is no really solid artillery in the Chaos army, but there are
other things that make up for this.
