Playtest games with Imperial Fists

I've had two more games with my fists, which I am now 80% confident I will be taking to the club tournament at the end of October. The first game was against Guard and the second against Space Wolves. Battle report with pictures herein:

What I want in the new Chaos Space Marines codex
