With the release of the new Chaos Space Marines codex and, more recently, the Chaos Daemons Codex, I've have to update my Apocalypse Chaos Space Marines army list yet again. The main thing is that I have stripped out all the daemons as they will all be represented by the Chaos Daemons codex. I chose to do this because I thought the daemons in the new codex had more character than the ones in the Chaos Space Marines codex, had better rules and because they were more expensive.
I also had to ditch the warp rift data sheet. Hopefully Games Workshop will create more data sheets specifically for the Chaos Daemon codex.

So I've lost about 500 points from this list but I have the new, more expensive, daemon list to compensate. The only really tough decision I had to make about what to include in what list was the Daemon Prince. In the end I kept him in with this list because the model is more 'space mariney' and painted in Exigator colours. His background fluff is also better suited to the Chaos Space Marines rather than 'pure' Chaos Daemons.
I still have a half finished Brass Scorpion, 8 Khorne Berzerkers and the mighty Abaddon himself to add to this army so I'm not quite done yet.
