You could choose a cult army instead, even though black legion does have its benefits. You dont need to buy a codex, i'll email mine to you, and get two squads of chaos marines and a lord for starters

ah i understand. Ok you need the Chaos Lord, a Box of Chaos Marines, but the chaos force Box? do you want to play this Khorne Marines and the Rhino? This Force box is one of the badest i know, if you do not play this things. Some Raptors are cool and very effectiv (<- word for powerful in play right?) The Defiler is another good choice. A few Lascannons, to stick them to the Troop choices beside some Plasmaguns. I hope the intention is clear. In german it would be much easier, but it have to work this way ^^

Black Legion can use everything. The 4 Undevided Legions have slight restrictions (Word Bearers, Night Lords, Alpha Legion and Iron Warriors) while the Cult Legions (World Eaters, Death Guard, Thousand Sons and Emperor's Children) have really hard restrictions. For the Cult Legions I'd also recommend to use the special miniature ranges as they look really cool.

Forget Termies. They really suck as they don't have assault weapons like the Marine Termies. So ubnless you want a heavy shooting unit forget them. The only reason why I'll get a squad of 5 is to use them as icon bearers. But if you don't need a heavy infantry unit forget thgem for normal playing. A normal CSM unit is more effective for most things.

Ok The Force is only good when you want to play Khorne Berserker. Rhinos are to bad for their points. So when you don't want to play Khorne Berserker in your black legion, more than half of the Box is wasted. This is the Bad thing

Nothing is wrong with Khorne Berserkers. When you are going to play them then is all fine. They are good, but the models are not the best but this is only my opinion, i don't like these models
