Going through the document again, something has struck me. It's just an aesthetic issue, really, but would it be possible to re-name "Chaos Marine Chosen" to "Chosen Chaos Space Marines", "Chaos Marine Aspiring Champion" to "Chaos Space Marine Aspiring Champion", and "Chaos Marine Terminators" and "Chaos Marine Bikes" to either "Chaos Space Marine Terminators" and "Chaos Space Marine Bikes" or to "Chaos Terminators" and "Chaos Bikes"? Abbreviating to 'Chaos Marine [whatever]' just sounds too colloquial; something that would be fine in casual conversation about the game, but doesn't seem quite right in the army list.

It's a draft/playtest document gentlemen, not a supplement, it written for ease of use and minimum ink... *laugh*

"EPIC: Black Crusade" will have the full names in there.

Replacing "Chaos Marine Terminators" with "Chaos Terminators" would use less ink. And if concision is a primary goal, why not go even further and use "CSM Terminators", etc.? "Chaos Marine Chosen" could simply be labelled "Chosen".

As for ease of use, being sloppy and inconsistent about unit names does not further this aim.

And while the document may currently be a draft, it will presumably form the basis for a final document once playtesting is complete. These changes that ought to be made before that version is finalised.

quick Q - are the Hell Talons and Hell Blades supposed to be 2 for 225 and 3 for 175pts, respectively? 175pts for 3 fighters with 4xAA4+ on intercept seems pretty cheap..
