I think it would be fair to say this list could have serious problems in game.
For some reason, Mono-god Khorne just seems really hard to pull off (I've seen Slaanesh, Tzeentch and Nurgle lists that i like, and would play, but Khorne always seems to be too expensive for what it does.)
Not sure what regular users of Khorne would say, but i don't think the Bloodthirster really needs UM. So thats 40 points saved.
Your Bloodcrushers are set up perfectly for wound allocation. Maybe try to add a 4th to the squad. And possibly another squad.
Troops..... This is hard, because Blood Letters are good when in combat. But squads of 10 T4 5+ save, will probably die, especially when you DS as close to the enemy as possible because you want to assault asap. I don't really know what to recommend here. For a start at least 1 bigger squad. Maybe forget about objectives? just have two larger squads 16ish. I think objectives for deamons, are only really a focus for Plaguebearers and Horrors.
Deamon Princes....Now i don't like the daemon codex daemon Princes, purely because they cost more than CSM ones, and i think with not a huge advantage, in fact in a lot of cases a disadvantage. Now with these, you can DS them a bit further back, because of flight. But still, you've got 410 points tied up in them, that could go into another 8 Blood Crushers, which i personally think are more effective.
Other things to consider.... Skulltaker, probably on a jug so he can join the Bloodcrushers. Possibly Chariot heralds i think they can be quite effective, but don't think i've seen a list with them in.

As sad as it is Bloodletters are bad and khorne princes are bad as well.
Try to make 2 squads of 20 letters drop the UNholy might on the thirsters and add another crusher to your squad and you still have wound allocation.
now if you drop the princes you can get 2 more troops of crushers @4 man with all equip. you would also have left over 10 points to give the thirsters blessing.
Anyway I wanted to stard mono Khorne as well but got pulled into Khorne Tzeentch and now have to play Tzeentch/Nurgle with a touch of Khorne to be effektive.
Letters just die sooo fast. Play 1 troop of 14 if you totally want them in a multi god list and always 4 crushers with equip

This is my changed up one, like i said, regardless of how competitive it is, i have always just wanted a nicely painted khorne army that can be played viably. not a super cheese list
with that being said, either this or maybe later replacing 1 bloodthirster with a herald and skulltaker on a bloodcrusher, this is my finalized version of the list. i dropped out a bloodletter squad for a full 8 man bloodcrusher unit, that unit in itself is a shock factor, and is in no way easily killed.

Um, check again, Bloodcrushers are not Fast Attack, they are elites.

Mattieu~~~~ It's not that eldar are bad, it's that they require a lot of intergration between units. Also, that doesnt prove anything other than GW has a huge hard-on for marines, and, given the option between making a xeno the best psykers or making a marine the best psyker, they will 9 times out of 10 choose the marine.

Just a note on your comment.
I don't think you can get a cheesy Khorne Daemon list... the only Daemon list that i know of that is considered 'cheesy' (i don't even like that term, its silly) is Fatecrusher, but i personally wouldn't play that anyway.
Do you have any of this stuff already? Or is it just a plan? I would like to know how the Daemon Princes do in game for Daemons. I have only seen bolt ones or Nurgle ones.

this is just a plan, tax returns coming around soon, its enough to kick off a new army ive wanted to start. ive always liked the look of khorne. Im tired of all imperium armies, so thats a no go. and most of the Xenos armys are outdated or too expensive. i play nids atm. so im trying to mathhammer out a list and ask some of my daemon player friends for advice to chizzle out a list.

Definatly give the Khorne army a go. If anything just for something that isn't seen very often, and just looks cool
