Righto, so I only play 40k but I have now collected quite a few daemons (all round bases though!)

So far I have

Bloodthrister
Lord of Change
3 heralds of tzeentch
3 daemon princes

60 horrors
20 bloodletters
10 plague bearers
10 warhounds (being used as flesh hounds for my 40k army)
10 direwolves (being used as flesh hounds, I know they are vampire counts for WFB)
10 flamers

Hellcannon (being used as skull cannon of khorne for 40k)
burning chariot
Soul grinder

I plan to get some screamers, nurglings probably 10 more plague bearers and some a herald of khorne.

Could I make a decent WFB army with these?

As near as I can tell, the general thought about new daemons is that nurgle is good, khorne/slaanesh do decent in support, and you can sprinkle in a little bit of tzeench without train-wrecking your army.

With that in mind, you've got an odd-ball mix. Too much tzeench, not quite enough blood letters, not enough nurgle.
With the lord choices you have, I'd run a daemon prince. I'm not fond the blood thrister or the lord of change. The nurgle/slaanesh greater daemons are better.

Ambushing flesh hounds are really good.
Good enough that you might get away with running big deep blocks of horrors and having the flesh hounds come in from behind and save them.

I like the tzeentch in 40k for their shooting and psyhic powers, I have no idea on the magic in WFB, will have to get my hands on a rule book and daemon of chaos book to have a read through first, my very local club are quite into WFB at the moment.
