This is a proposed list for an upcoming tournament - I'm not expecting to win, but can hopefully use it to improve on my usual terrible rankings (my Chaos list is usually a bit more random than this)! It's based on the models I own, but I'm open to new acquisitions ...

Mighty Lord of Khorne
Bloodsecrator
Bloodstoker
Slaughterpriest
Skullgrinder

20 x Bloodreavers
15 x Bloodwarriors
10 x Bloodletters
5 x Wrathmongers
1 x Khorgorath

20 x Gors
3 x Varanguard
1 x Skull Cannon

(2000 points)

The idea is to use the Gors and the Varanguard as a fast-moving attack to soften up one flank, and use the core Bloodbound units in the middle and on the other flank, benefiting from the Bloodsecrator/Bloodstoker and Wrathmonger buffs. The Skull Cannon (and Slaughterpriest) can add some range, plus the Skull Cannon has a pretty nice melee profile as well so can move forward as much as possible. As with any Bloodbound list, everything depends on being able to close the distance as quickly as possible, but I'm hoping that there are enough models here for objective-grabbing as well (something else the Gors and Varanguard should be good at).

I think your list is very well rounded and should do quite well. What are you going to use the bloodletters for?

The 20 gors looks very much out of place if you are trying to build a strong list. They are fine models on the other hand, so I can see why you would like to show them.

skull cannons are stinky. swap for a warp lightning cannon and you're in business

I've played this kind of army in a league.

From my experience you need at least two Bloodsecreators.
