So what do you think? This is mainly a fun army but still quite competitive and is not going to go in a tournament or smth.
I may have gone a bit over board in the heroe dept. but I don't want to kick anyone out.

I think that your infantry is a little too weak in numbers. A few losses and they will lose combat effectivness really fast and run for it.

As you say your army is a little hero-dominated but if you dont want to kick some one out I suggest that you at least degreat a few of them into a lower level character to ger more Chaos Warriors and Marauders to form a solid ground of troops to use.

Who needs an Avatar when you've got blank space?
Drop Chariot on character...
Make Chosen not chosen...
That should give you quite a few points for Chaos Warriors/Maraderers

Blade of Blood + Pendant of slaanesh is a fun combo & a very nice one too, but your lord will not get wounded that many times so that it becomes worth its point total, just skip the Blade of Blood & use a Sword of Might instead, it saves you some points, makes it easier to wound & your lord is still quite safe w. 1+ armour save & 4+ ward... (personally I would use a mounted exalted champion with just the gaze & sword of might instead)
Using a greatweapon & a Magical weapon is useless unless up against Highelves as you cannot choose which weapon to use in closecombat, you have to use the magical weapon, meaning the greatweapon is wasted points....

Skip one of the dispelscrolls, 4 dispeldice + a scroll is good enough magical protection in a 2K army... (unless up against TK, WE & VC)

With the 46+4 points free you can get 3 marauders & a small unit (5) of chaos hounds.

Do NOT I repeat NOT drop the chariot for the sorcerer, that is an awesome combo I´ve used myself many times getting + 3 attacks easily & giving the chariot a Unit Strength of 5, meaning it can negate ranks if charging into a flank or rear. Besides the sorcerer gets a respectable armoursave of 2+ & has a great protection from wizardhunters...

I think another problem might be for you is that alot of your charcters are not on steeds or foot, if you c wat i mean? If there is nt many people in the army, they might nt be covered very well, and a lucky cannon/mortor/bolt thrower/Gnobler shot might kill one of them, which, in a small army, would not be very good for the killing power...
But its certainly a diferent army! looks fun! :D !

Drop the GW, drop the Blade of Blood, it looks good on paper but it's really useless, trust me.

Why not drop that Enchanted Shield and get Quickening Blood? Strike First with a GW is always fun.

Can Sorceresses be mounted in Chariots? Otherwise pretty good.

Explain Level 2 and 2 Dispell Scrolls please.

Drop Chosen to make them normal, then they aren't as many points for your opponent.

15 Chaos Warriors of Slaanesh with Shields and FC. 275

Sounds good, but why not 14 and add the Sorceress on foot in here?

16 Marauders with LA, Sh and FC. 137

You do realise with all the Points you could be saving you could have more Marauders, they're next to useless in units less then 20, or 19 with Character. FInd some Points to add more Marauders.

Is there any special reason for 2 Units? Why not one unit and get more Marauders (See above)?

Darmort, quickening blood is only for druchii anointed. This is very clearly not a cult of slaanesh.

Keep the dual fast cavalry units, they come in handy.

I agree with your other comments though.
