I belive:
- Juggernaut of Khorne
- Mark of Khorne.
- Bloodfeeder
I think that this is a really good kit layout for my Khorne themed army, I slap him behind a LR until its time to unleash his mighty wrath.
The possibility of having a gut busting 18 attacks at strength 5 with a power weapon, hitting on 3's (depending on who you are fighting), brings a smile to my face
C&C?

yes... but there's also a 1/3 chance he's going to go all downy on you.

After the orbital strikes, Thunderhawk bombardments, Whirlwinds, Vindicators, fusion and starfire and finally Battle Brothers with flamers had finished cleansing the world of all the enemies of Man, we built a monastery in the center of the largest, most radioactive impact crater. We named the planet "Tranquility", for it was very quiet now.

Give him a powerfist, Mark of Khorne, and combi-melta then call it a day.
135 for a cheap HQ choice that isn't too bad just keep him away from powerfists.

Comparing tournament records is another form of e-peen measuring.

Glue some arcane junk to him and run him as a sorcerer!
In all seriousness, terminator armor and daemon weapon. Tough as nails & crazy strong. I like  because it gives him a good invulnerable save and shooting attack, but TBH at that price you're better off just shelling out for a daemon prince.

Pay the extra 20 points and make him a DP... But honestly, I'd love to know if anyone knows a solid way, like jump pack, deamon weapon, mark of ??, combi melta... Shrugs... DP just wins because at the points I'd dump into it, it's just not worth it!

I use Terminator Lord with MoS, Daemon Weapon, Combi-Melta and Personal Icon. Works really well for me.

A Prince is better in almost every way but if you must take a Lord and want to do the Khorne theme then why not take Kharn? If you like gambling, a Bloodfeeder Lord can be fun but Kharn can consistently pile wounds on people. He suffers from the same problem as regular Lords (and Sorcerers), in that he can be instant killed fairly easily.
Khorne Prince with Wings is cheap and kicks much ass... at the least your opponent has to wound him 4 times rather than instant killing him with the first melta shot. The only benefit of a Lord is being able to hide in a squad, but then you need to allocate points to the squad and most likely a delivery system. A Prince doesn't need help or transportation...

If you're going to take a Chaos Lord, then you want to give him the stuff a Daemon Prince can't have, such as a Steed, or a Bike, a Powerfist, a Combi-Weapon, a Personal Icon, a Daemon Weapon, a Plasma Pistol, and so on.
Something else to note is that while a Chaos Lord can suffer Instant Death, they're relatively immune to being singled out and shot to death like Daemon Princes are.
Remember, different units fulfill different roles.

There is no way to hide the jugg unless you give it an escort. Then you have the bloodfeeder the most untrustworthy DW of all. If you go Khorne Lord go Powerfist or Lightening Claws.
