How about ordering base sprues from GW to use your old plastic mini's. And
as for the old Imperial Titans, if I fought you and you were using the old
models instead of the new ones they're probably gonna put out (Or have put
out) then I would be happy, because they look really cool.

Personally, I don't care if my opponent uses painted rocks glued to paper,
as long as their roughly the same size.

As for the second power, Khorn is combat, why not take the magic chaos god
to even it out. Or just use some Chaos Marines, Marines can plug nearly any hole
