Hello my fellow brothers!
I finally got my hands on the new codex, and I'm ready to play against Empire and Lizardmen, in an alliance with Vampire Counts.

HERO:
Chaos Sorcerer
- Shield
- lvl2
- Familiar
- Dawnstone
- Dispel Scroll
- Mark of Nurgle
total: 230pts
-----------------------------------------
BASE:
Warriors (x15)
- Shield
- Full command
- Mark of Nurgle
total: 285pts
-----------------------------------------
SPECIAL:
Knights of Chaos (x5)
- Ensorcelled Weapons
- Full command
- Mark of Tzeench
total: 240pts
-----------------------------------------
RARE:
Skullcrushers of Khorne (x3)
- Ensorcelled Weapons
- Full command
total: 219pts
------------ -----------------------------
TOTAL 973pts

I'm planning to MoN my infantry to play defensively (they have just 1hand weapon and shield, I found out that halberd + shield is killer but on 1k army is just too expensive), in those 15 warriors I'd put my sorcerer (I'm torn between Lore of Death or Lore of Nurgle, both are sweet).
Skullcrushers are there to kill fast and efficiently, I will mainly try to flank my opponents, paying attention not to get distracted by enemies' dogs or similar smaller units because they're Frenzied.
With Knights of Tzeench I've got a defensive unit that hits like a train, I would use it to destroy any cannon/sorcerer/annoying enemy unit as fast as possible.
What do you think?
I know, lore-wise Nurgle and Tzeench hate themselves. I was skeptical to use both of them in my army because I hate going against fluff! But Archaon unites all the gods of Chaos armies so I'm justified, I guess.

Tweaks and tips are always WELCOME! cheers and thanks in advance!

Everything looks good except the sorcerer. The familiar also counts as having an arcane item, so you have to pick between that or the dispel scroll.

Right!
I made some changes.
Chaos Sorcerer:
- lvl2
- Dawnstone [re-roll failed armor save]
- Scaled Skin [with chaos armor, armor save is now 3+]
- Dispel Scroll
- Mark of Nurgle [-1 to hit in c.c. and Lore of Nurgle]
total: 225pts

I'm torn between dispel scroll and chaos familiar, though.

Also, Razor Standard sounds pretty good to have in the Warriors block.

Lord John
Lord of chaos
i have a lot of exp. vs empire and what ik know is that your knights will die before the can go into C.C.
i think that you need at least 2*5 warhounds and a disc hero 4 warmachinehunting,
watch out for the hellblaster volleysgun with your warriors. one good shot and byebye warriors,
Skullcrushers are very good vs the demi-chickens
