Because melta weapons are anti-tank weapons... and Rhinos are tanks. Chaos Razorbacks with spikes. It wouldn't be particularly lore-breaking. Eternal Crusade gave the Reaper Launcher anti-tank missiles already, made the Shuriken Cannon the default Dark Reaper weapon (because... reasons), and that was fine with GW, they can give Chaos a heavy bolter turret on their Rhino for the sake of balance.
You could all ride in on the backs of those crazy khorn rhino looking things (obviously I dont know the name) that demon vehicle from dow 2 Edit I meant the animal not the SM transport. Damn nicknamed vehicles....we shod rename rhinos to something else. Insert looks like a Puma RvB joke here.
Fluff-wise, Chaos Razorbacks could be looted from a Forgeworld or Chapters that fell to Chaos fairly recently. Another idea: What about if Chaos get Rhino with Havoc Launchers? Like a mini Whirlwind tank.
We've been through the "transports able to damage vehicles" debacle with the Wave Serpent, we don't need to revisit it thank you.
What if we, hypothetically, limited Razorbacks to Heavy Bolters and make the Havoc missiles a strictly an anti-infantry weapon with little to no AV capability? Make it so neither can really damage vehicles but still be good supporting fire vs infantry.
The big red horse/rhino deamons that could charge walls and break them. Dunno what they were called. I think they had a bloodletter riding on its back.
Sounds like Juggernauts, but I haven't played actual 40k TT since about 4th/5th Edition and I never really got into DoW.
