as for my brothers forces, he basically has the contents of two battleforce boxes plus a chaos lord, chaos terminators, and bloodletters of khorne (he basically took advantage of the holidays to get himself an entire new army at no expense)

A battleforce includes chaos berzerkers, chaos squad(forget what there called equivelent of tactical marines) a predator or rhino, and three bikers

his army is following the mark of khorne
hmmmm... well against a khorne aligned army, it's very important that you do not! try and engage him in close combat because he's simply godly at that!
instead, you'll need to shoot his nasty stuff like the 'zerkers & (inevitablely nasty) lord/daemon prince. now this doesn't mean you want to forgo assault altogether! his regular undivided chaos marines can be delt with by units like veterans, termies and/or a decent command squad. (especially a com squad led by a chaplain!)

another fun trick you pull on his 'zerkers and any unit with the mark of khorne, is to keep say a land speeder nearby so that when they secumb to blood rage, they'll run off and chase the speeder! (just make sure the speeder's your closest unit, and he has to chase it - even backwards towards his own lines!)
you could also try and use a dreadnought for this too. keep it at the very front of your lines and he'll likely be forced to charge it! using rhinos is also an option... basically, you want to use that blood rage to try and force your bro to attack units he can't really hurt.

watch out for those bloodletters though... they're just plain mean and will cut up pretty much any infantry they get into contact with! a vindicator or else a unit that can produce a large volume of decent strength firepower will see them off!

hope this helps,
cheers!
