Hi everyone ! I just wanted to know your opinion on the following army list I made (I am limited to these models for now):

Sorcerer Lord : Tzeentch, Level 4, Chaos Familiar, Dragon Helm, Lore of Metal
Total: 320

Chaos Lord : Khorne, enchanted shield, Hellfire Sword, Soul Feeder
Total: 300

Exalted Hero : Nurgle, BSB, Helm of Discord
Total: 175

Warriors x20 : Khorne, Full Command, Banner of Rage, AHW
Total: 415

Warriors x20 : Nurgle, Full Command, Gleaming Penant, Shields
Total: 375

Warriors x20 : Nurgle, Full Command, Lichebone Penant, Shields
Total: 385

Skullcrushers x3 : Command, Razor Standard, Ensorcelled Weapons
Total: 309

Dragon Ogre Shaggoth : AHW
Total: 220

TOTAL: 2499

why are you using Tzeentch as the sorcerer and either a) not mounting him of b) taking tzeentch warriors to accompany him? (keeping in mind he cannot join a unit that doesn't share a mark with him and/or is marked by another god)

personal opinion is that Skull Crushers are not worth their points, that 309points would be better suited elsewhere.

personally if you were going to rock nurgle warriors I would go for halbers or GW, make proper use of the WS5 and bring the pain. one unit of khorne warriors probably wont reach the lines all that many times due to saturation and focus fire. then again, should they make it, it will expose your lord who will be out of place with the rest of the army.

I would personally drop the dragon ogre in favour of a hell canon. people don't like it when Chaos shoot back, but that's my personal choice

For the nurgle block of warriors, you might want to consider taking halberds or even great weapons instead of shields. They could dish out a lot of hurt while still being hard to kill in the first place. Being even harder to kill is nice, but +2 strength vs +1 armor is hard to justify giving up.

I would never take GW on nurgle warriors, but halberds are superb.
Couldn't disagree more about skullcrushers, they wreck face efficiently and cost effectively.
Totally agree about the Tzeentch sorc - he can't go in any unit as he is. Either change mark and lore, or just drop the mark - thsn he can join any unit.
Agree partially about the Shaggoth - Hellcannons can be awesome
