This list has been doing pretty well for me but I am unsure if it's the list or my opponents having bad days etc... So here it is for the community to pick apart.

Sorcerer Lord
-Lvl 4
-Infenral Puppet
-Armour of Silvered Steel
-Third Eye
-Necrotic Phylactery
*Usually takes lore of heavens sometimes shadow

Exalted Hero of Tzeentch
-BSB
-Dragonhelm
-Talisman of Endurance

Troll King Throgg

Chosen of Tzeentch x 18
-Full Command
-Halberds
-Shields
-Banner of Rage
-Favour of the Gods

Trolls x 7

Trolls x 8

Chaos Marauders of Khorne x 50
-Full Command
-Great Weapons

Chaos Warshrine of Tzeentch x2

Throgg goes in the unit of 7 trolls and the BSB and Sorc Lord wherever needed although usually in the unit of chosen.

My reasoning for trolls instead of ogres is that after it's all said and done (at least in my gaming club/area) most 4+ armor saves turn into either 6's or no save due to lore of shadow or many other str buffing lores. I figured if I'm not going to end up having a save at all I might as well have a 4+ (regen) most of the time and when I don't get it because of flaming attacks they aren't any worse off than the ogres would be in the other 90% of cases. Also, being able to vomit as a supporting attack is quite nice and denying armor saves has saved my bacon!

Double shrine there of course to try to ensure a 12 on the EoTG table. Also having two has been very nice when needing to support my other units.

I am unsure what anyone elses exeperience has been with 50 Marauders but they have done really well for me so far.

So any thoughts? Am I going to really suffer against empire/dwarf shooty? Dark Elves didn't seem too bad once I made contact and of course with them I spearhead my force with the trolls to give some cover to my other units.

list looks fun!

i can't help but think that one shooting unit with the flame banner will turn your trolls into so much bbq... that, or someone will take lore of shadows and initiative kill them :S

if you could give the 4+ ward to the trolls as well, you'd be far safer!

Those initiative tests are indeed a concern. Man that's too bad. It seems that competitively they would not be the right build then. Maybe back to the drawing boad on what to do with the points spent on Throgg and 15 trolls.
