Well this topic has been raised time and time again. I'm not really sure if the Chaos fleet needs a real Light cruiser but when i was playing around with some bitz I came up with this simple design: a Repulsive prow with a plastic cruiser rear part and an Imperial bridge. Now if only GW would start selling BFG bitz again so it was actually affordable to build these things...

It's got sort of a "Star Destroyer look to it I think :D

Just a random thought - that ship looks like it'd be very tough.  What if instead of making it a normal CL that's a fast cruiser (aka the Slaughter in the Chaos fleet), it was slower, had better shields than most CLs, and a good amount of weapons?  More of a defence than a scouting ship.

Anyways, that's what I thought when I saw it :)

Mayhaps some sort of system ship for traitor systems?

I note you are keen on the repulsive prow :)

That looks like the 'Heavy Escort' cruiser that I imagined for allowing for a 'slow' Chaos Fleet. Lots of Grand Cruisers.

My suggestions:

FP5 L/R 30cm
S1 FLR 60cm
S4 Prow Torps

90*
20cm Speed
4 Hits
5+ Armour
1 Turret
1 Shield.

Used as cheap access to some tons of Grand Cruisers. In fact,I'd also suggest fleets with majorly 'these' as cruiser gain access to GCs as Heavy Cruisers too.

Use a Chaos fleet in a very more 'odd' way. Basically tranding speed for wide torp access and 'heavy/light' displacement rather than 'Very Medium'
