Name: Disciples of Horus
Background: Following Abbaddon's 12th Black Crusade, a Chaos lord (former captain of the Luna Wolves, AKA Sons of Horus) and his Tzeentch Sorcerer BFF have splintered off from the Black Crusade, feeling that Abbaddon has lost his way, along with his sanity. With them is a company's worth of heritage Luna Wolves (Sons of Horus) that are fed up with dealing with other legions and renegade chapters and want to take the fight to the Imperium in their own way. Abbaddon has been too careless with Legion troops under his command and has blinders on with regards to his crusade.
Makeup: They'll mostly be Renegade Space Marines with Chaos Undivided and Tzeentch marks/icons. There might be a few units that follow Khorne/Nurgle, but they would be the exception rather than the norm. After all, having followed Abbaddon for hundreds of years, they will certainly have been exposed to these ruinous powers. At most, that would be a Havok or Chosen squad with a mark/icon that isn't Tzeentch.
I won't be fielding the Legion Troops (Plague Marines, Thousand Sons, Khorne Berzerkers), but I'll occasionally take a few Tzeentch (and only Tzeentch) Chaos Daemons allies to go with them. Perhaps some screamers, a Daemon prince, some flamers, and pink horrors. I'll perhaps have a 1,000 - 1,500 point sideboard to pull from, when all is said and done. The Daemons will only be Tzeentch because the Sorcerer will be Tzeentch, and these would represent the ruinous powers that the Tzeentch Sorcerer "deals" with from time to time, and what he can call upon to help the warband.
There will be havocks, chosen, standard troops, and some heavy vehicles. I'm not sure about Obliterators. Perhaps they have made an arrangement with some members of the Obliterator cult where they keep their vehicles in repair in exchange for any xenos or rare technology they find in their endeavors.
Colors: Blue and Silver will be the primary colors, with bone white being the accent color. They will all wear the Eye of Horus on their uniforms (the timing of the upcoming Sons of Horus shoulder pads and transfers from Forge World is Freaking Awesome!!) , as they feel they are the true, "pure" descendents of Horus. Pure is a rather loose term, as they will have some Nurgle/Khorne/Tzeentch worshipers in their midst.
First up is a Dark Vengeance Chosen or Lord.
Next up is the new Dark Vengeance Hellbrute!
And finally a Chosen from the Dark Vengeance set. With a bolter. Because he bolts stuff!
Daemon Prince on a Resin Base!
