Neat idea, but maaaaan, that's alot of points tied up in characters....you're also the minimum requirement on core troops, unfortunately!

So why the Tzeetch BSB and the skull crushers? I wouldn't call it a "slaanesh" army with those in there; you're kind of breaking your own theme by putting them in there...They're effective, don't get me wrong..but if you want a Slaanesh army, I say switch them out for slaanesh stuff.

I think you could do with getting rid of the BSB entirely (a slaanesh marked army doesn't really need them) and drop another one of the exalted heroes; one will be enough to help that hellstrider unit out. Maybe switch out those skull crushers to a couple units of slaanesh knights, and use the points from the exalted and BSB for another unit of warriors, and you're looking pretty good!

If you feel like keeping the crushers and tzeetnch fellow, you mine as well just do a mixed army, and throw mark of Nurgle on those gore beasts.

I also was hoping to run this...unfortunately;

'unless otherwise noted...a special rule applying only to a character does not apply to the unit, and vice versa.'

I was pretty pissed at that but hey ho.

Its a Slaanesh army in the terms of modelling. I tried to write a pure slaanesh force, but skullcrushers are just so good.

Core is fine. 602

So what happens when the unit gets Stubborn? I assume that applies?

Think I might be overlooking something, or maybe my math is wrong..?

5 Warhounds=30
5 Warhounds Vanguard=40
5 Warhounds Vanguard=40

18 Chaos warriors
MOS
Muso. Std
Shields
Halberds= 362

Slaaneshi Chariot= 115

total core; 587 out of needed 600

I'd still suggest giving the slaanesh knights a go instead of bloodcrushers (call me a purist, but I say a mono list should be..well..a mono list ;) ) and dropping that BSB...you'd free up so many points, and really take advantage of that immune-to-being-spooked thing slaanesh has going for it. A couple of small units of knights and an extra war hound unit would perform great, I think..I doubt you'd be disappointed in them!

If you're dead set on the 'crushers, then I'd say you need a BSB for them..But you still need to try and juggle points for a bigger core selection. I'd say drop one of the other exalted heroes and grab yourself another chariot.

aaand core problem solved!

Banner of swiftness seems to be one of those things that always gets overlooked..I forgot to include the price of it in my last slaanesh army list :)
