Order, Chaos, these are words. Chaos is not something you fight against, order is not something you protect. They have no more power then that which we give them
And I will not prepetuate that there is something inheirently wrong with chaos.

Can I get a little help with this army list please, ideas, thoughts from veteran players? I'd like to keep it to one god for the fluff of it all, but if that is unrealistic let me know. Thanks

Lash plus obliterators works, and works well. What else do you need to know?

Drop the Blastmasters from the Champ squads and use the points to get them a ride. If you're going to use an "ultra cheese set-up", at least follow the sacred number of Slaanesh (6).

agree with extrenm, 2 lashes and 8 oblits is going to win you alot of games, but not alot of friends. i would at least get a power weapon on the unit champs in the NM squads.

I'd replace the Sorcerer with a winged DP.
DPs are easier to use effectively.

Nothing much to advise here. Its the standard
Like people said above, you will win a lot, but a lot of people won't like/want to play you.

Frightnening Fiend of Slaanesh

Guess i'm just trying to keep with some of the fluff of this, hence why i'm not taking anything of a different god. By the fluff of it I can't see two demons princes working together especially not of slaanesh or on such a small scale.
I had rhinos in my army originally but then I got to thinking with only 2 or 3 rhinos they aren't going to be on the table long. Rhinos aren't heavily armored as it is and with such a low count on it ALL the anti armor fire is gonna be on them first turn, and it doesn't take much to drop them. so if i am lucky and get the first move i'll get to move my rhinos once before they are popped. If my list contained a bit more heavy armor firepower i.e. vindicators/predators/defilers I would invest in rhinos, too bad I already bought the models.
Why the power weapon on the champion?
Thank you all for your replies

Just gunna say, dropping down your squads to favored number would EASILY get you the points for Rhinos, slaanesh marines are very mobile and I would use that to your advantage. Even if you don't want to do this, your army will be mobile and powerful for a shooty army due to the double lash getting units close enough to obliterate them one by one. One unit can be piled up and hit with 3x Plasma Cannons, another brought up into range of up to 90 shots from your marines. Your army can pick apart their army VERY well. Charging at them head on will be your utter anihilation, but using cover and brining units to you and taking them out with Blast weapons will be your best move. You could easily obliterate 2 full marine squads a turn if the lashes go out, and still have another 5 lascannon shots if you want... Since Sonic Blaster can be heavy 3, if an enemy is charging you, they will take a LOT of firepower from your marines.
There isn't really anything else you could do to improve this list other than mechanize it. (btw, rhinos are very resilient if you use smoke and cover right!)
