Never lost this battle as chaos. Lots of minotaurs and trolls (I've killed several
dominatrixes with trolls and minotaurs). Lords of battle for the psychic save. As
always, lots of chaos marines. Mortarion could rip through a swarm with his plague
wind. A few warhounds/subjugators to pin dominatrixes so the horde could swarm in
with clubs and axes.

Keep expensive infantry in buildings. Cheap infantry buffers; Guard your titans
and tanks with infantry. If nothing else, keep someone on advance nearby to make
the opponent pay for his kills on your units.

Good tactics could win out against these cheese armies on a regular basis. The
people who beat me regularly did not do it with any of this crap; they did it with
normal armies well played.
