Khorne/Nurgle 2250

Hi all, This is a 2250 Khorne/Nurgle list I've come up with. Its more or less based on what units I actually own so I'm looking for opinions on its usefullness and/or what units I should look at getting next.

Lord
Mark of Khorne, Enchanted Shield, Hellfire sword, blood curdling roar (that one is to cool to pass on) Demonic Mount. ( I don't own a juggy otherwise he'd be riding that)

Exalted Hero
BSB, Banner of Rage, Shield. (My thought is to stick this guy with the marauders for 20 flail wielding maniacs with frenzy)

Sorcerer
lvl 2, dispel scroll X 2, mark of Nurgle

5 Knights of Khorne
Full command (lord will ride with these guys)

14 Warriors of Nurgle
Shield, full command, Banner of Festering shroud,

16 Warriors of Khorne
Shield, full command, halberd

20 marauders
flails, full command

5 Marauder horsemen
spear, shield, throwing spear, musician

8 Chaos warhounds X3

Either

1 Chaos Giant

or

2 Spawn.

This is roughly 2000 points not including the giant or spawn. I'm trying to stick with the favored numbers as much as possible. Thanks for looking.

Buy the Juggy!

I like the infantry army, is hard to play imho, without Hellcanons, but very friendly imho.

Cheers,

I think the Lord is a points sink. Aside from an Exalted being much better value, he'll rarely get much worth out of the Hellfire Sword.

By putting your BSB in the Marauders he is going to suffer from the Festering Shroud because he has not got the Mark of Nurgle.

Hounds in units of 8 seems sort of pointless. They are fine in 5's. In 8's they just take up space.

Horsemen would be better with Flails instead of the two types of Spears.

Finally, your list lacks hard hitters. Aside from the rare choices, you have two models in the army with S5, and everything else is S4 or less. You will have some serious problems with this, since hitting hard is what Chaos is made for.

After looking at the points I agree about the lord and I think I'll change it to exalted.

The BSB wouldn't be with the warriors of nurgle who have the festering shroud so I don't see how that would affect him unless I'm missing something.

I put the hounds in units of 5.

Exalted Hero
Mark of Khorne, Axe of Khorne, Shield, Blood curdling roar, juggernaught.

Exalted Hero
BSB, Banner of Rage, Shield. (My thought is to stick this guy with the marauders for 20 flail wielding maniacs with frenzy)

Sorcerer
lvl 2, dispel scroll X 2, mark of Nurgle

5 Knights of Khorne
Musician, banner (lord will ride with these guys)

5 Knights of Nurgle
Full command

14 Warriors of Nurgle
Shield, full command, Banner of Festering shroud,

16 Warriors of Khorne
Shield, full command, halberd

20 marauders
flails, full command

5 Marauder horsemen
spears,throwing spears, musician

5 Chaos warhounds X4

2 Spawn.
