Just change the Horsemen's marks to Nurgle and you are set to go against Wood Elves.

Yep, MoN and you're good to go. Although one thing I would consider is swapping the flail on the EC for a halberd. Unless he takes a treeman or treekin (I think thats all, only other thing I can think of is mounted noble with LA ,shield and helm of the hunt) S6 is exactly the same as S7, and if you get caught in combat you don't go down to S5.

He's not geared to fight, so it would be best to keep him out of your most fighty unit.

So i now have 2 options

either i add 1 more unit of hounds

or

Take out 1 unit of hounds , take marks off the spawns
and add 1 unit of Marauder Horsmen with flails , musitian and MoS

I still thin that MoN on Light cavalery is overkill , too expensive imo even agains WE. Screen them with hounds instead?

Bloodcurdling Roar could prove very useful for softening up units before charging & limiting their shooting (especially against Waywatchers). The fact that you don't need to roll to hit makes all the difference, especially since they'll be hiding in woods. I'd give you Ex. Champion Bronze Armour of Zhrakk as well, to protect him further from Waywatchers, chiselly sods that they are. If you do that be sure to make a Sorcerer your general instead of him, so you don't lose out on the leadership bonus, but since he'll be jet-setting off you'll doubtless be doing that anyway.

Whether he rolls to hit or not, he still needs LOS, and if they are in the woods, mostly you won't have that, and hardly ever when dealing with a disk hero.

"hardly ever when dealing with a disk hero" Only if he's facing in completely the wrong direction! 90 degree frontage isn't completely blind. You do get to use it in your own turn after you've manoevred himn into position. And obviously he needs line of sight, but he only needs to see one to get the drop. We can safely assume our man edde has sense enough to judge whether his wailing assassin can see what's actually going on on the table.

He wouldn't have LOS because he can't see through the forest. And less so when using a Disk Hero because he is a flyer and will only be able to move his gorund movement through the forest which is 1".

Where did I mention him going into the forest? I know he can't see through it, but he may well in certain situations which he may be able to position himself in be able to target pointy-headed leafeaters within 2" of the edges. No idiot would go into the woods, that's damnedfoolery, I'm saying not all the woodpixies can necessarily fit in there at once, and ones that don't are fair game for a Bloodcurdling.

The army that I play against the most is a Wood Elf army, trust me, they always find a way.
