I'm a pretty heavy Fluff player so hopefully there are others out there that can tell me if this sounds good fluff-wise as well as useful in a game.
HQ: 120 Pts
Daemon Prince, MoK
Elite: 450 Pts
Possessed CSM, Champion, MoK, w/Rhino Combi-Melta
Chaos Dreadnaught, DCCW, Bolter, Flamer
Troops: 920 Pts (These are Chaos Dragons, so heavy melta and flame, maybe should just use flame?)
2x (9x Khorne Berzerkers, Skull Champion w/Fist)
9x CSM, Champion w/Fist, Flamer and Melta
10x Summoned Lesser Daemons
Heavy Support: 500
2x Land Raiders, Possessed, Combi-Flamers
This adds up to 190 points. I'm not a fan of wings on the Daemon Prince, but that's just because it's the Forge World model and I don't want to screw it up by putting wings on it. I like Possessed over Terminators because of the randomness of their power, also I play Grey Knights so I'm used to wanting Terminators and it's nice to change things up. The Dreadnaught is going to be the Forge World World Eaters Dread so that's why it's there, also like the idea of the DCCW ripping things appart. Anyway, suggestions and comments are extremely appreciated. Thanks.

Well your army isn't that good from a power perspective. You will have trouble with armies that are geared to win games. But you seem happy with the choices you have made because of background and aesthetics. From a fluff perspective you will probably want to have 8 models in your berzerker and demons squads (presuming they are bloodletters).
Some general advice:
Your CSM squad could use a transport of some kind. With only short ranged weaponry they will take a long time to get to a range where they can use it. Also try and give them two meltas for that little boost to your anti-tank ability. Berzerkers out of landraiders can kill hordes like nobodies business, so that shouldnt be too much trouble for you.

If we were to play each other in a tournament, not only would I table you, I would murder you, your family, every woman you ever loved and burn down your house. I mean, what's the point in winning if you allow people that don't take the game seriously to live? |

What do you mean when you say "These are Chaos Dragons"?

Ah, actually the CSM do have a Rhino. The Chaos Dragons are in the Codex. They're not like 'Chaos' Dragons as if there are other dragons, they're just Dragons. I have to paint the scales on them and what-not. I played a Necron player with a list like this on Sunday, I actually won but that's probably because he played poorly, he had two Monoliths and a Night Bringer and I still won... just had to phase him out.
Fluff-wise, 8 guys huh? Is there like a general consensus on this or is it written somewhere? I"m trying to gather some information for the fluff of this army but all I have is from the Codex. Still waiting for Planetary Empire and I"m planning on writing up a Campaign for when it releases for me and a few guys at the store and we're trying to go story oriented battles so I'm hoping to make up good story for this army, we all want to be good when it comes to Fluff.

8 is Khorne's Sacred Number, and in the older iterations of the Chaos dex, a squad gained things for being the sacred number.
