I'd put some hounds into that list. They are easily worth the meager points you pay for them.

What about MoN on the chariots instead of Khorne? Khorne chariots are a worse option in my opinion... especially after the recent faq.

One of my regular opponents has a bret army, so far I've never lost against his knights, I'm always worried about them for some reason, but my troops slaughter his.

My set-up is usually 2 *24 big units of warriors with halberds, a big unit of trolls, plenty of hounds & a chimera. I currently only run 2 chars, a lvl 2 sorcerer with enchanted shield & a scroll & a bsb with the unkillable 3+ ward set-up (mounted on a daemon steed leading my trolls).
Chimera & hounds usually takes care of his trebuchet, chimera is also very good against flying knights, the rest is handled by the troops.

You can put the banner of eternal flame on the knights and Juggers . They don't have magic weapons anymore, they just give +1strade and magic attacks.

Exactly... only the riders (charioteers in this case) get the extra attack. So why take the MoK with the drawbacks of frenzy for two attacks over Nurgle's -1 to hit? (unless you are playing a themed army, but I noticed the list posted has a Nurgle DP)

Pretty sure weapons that give magical attacks are magic weapons by definition. I'm pretty sure most players would find it pretty gamey to try and argue otherwise.

Fortunately, the rules don't say anything about that definition, so rather to the contrary it'd be 'gamey' to argue that.

Just as a Daemon can have Flaming Attacks, so too can Ensorcelled Weapons.

In the previous book they were expressly stated as magic weapons, which by their nature grant magic attacks,but also have their weaknesses ( could be vault made or destroyed by items that destroy magic items, turned off by Obsidian armour ect ect...) Now they just grant magic attacks, also with their weaknesses (can't really think of any off the top of my head)

Edit: All ethereal models have magic attacks, does that mean all ethereal creature have magic weapons? All daemons also have magic attacks, but do they all have magic weapons?

Not sure just everything else was Khorne so i figured wth why not make whole army frenzy. Minus the general. MoN is a smarter choice eh. Ill switch that around. Removed a knight and the banner o flame. To make room for 5x2 hounds

Lord, plus 8 Knights of the Realm
Prophetess, 8 KotR
Damsel, 8 KotR
BSB, 8 KotR
3 Peg Knights
Treb
Treb
9 Grail Knights

And LOTS of magic items and banners. :D
