Round 2
I thought about this and will explain it as well.

(Still on the fence on what to go Nurgle or Tzeentch N- for there expert fighting or T- for the superiority of the Armour and or hoplite)

4-- heroes total

2 heroes with shields and hand weapons

1 hero with BSB dragon helm

1 wizard with dispel scroll lvl 2 -Priest fluff wise

Lord Archon on foot- Leonidas

45 warriors with shield and hand weapons 10 man frontage 5 deep with 4 heros and a lord in the front. Magic banner of swiftness

2 units of 10 Maurders 1-10 with flails (threicans) 1 with Armour and shield and hand weapon (Arcadians)

2 units of 5 wolves vanguard (dire wolves)

2 warshrines - Spartans being very religious

I know this army is not perfect, but I feel it can do decently and it will fill the role of being a themed army and holding it's own.

I was hoping you'd post again, I do like this theme.

A few things that are a bit unclear in your list.

1# - the 4 heroes... from what I can understand there are 3 Exalted Heroes with HW and Shields, one of which is the BSB who also has the Dragon Helm. Then there is the Lvl 2 sorcerer. With characters its always a good idea to separate there entries in the army list to avoid confusion.

#2 - The marauders. They all have to be equipped the same way. You can't have only a single Marauder armed with a hand weapon and shield and light armour and the rest with flails. Or have I misread this and you intent to give one whole unit Flails and the other HW and Shields?

Now a few concerns with the army.
I assume the 10 man units of marauders are going to act as flank protecters for the warriors. It's solid thinking, but a unit with T3 and no armour save is going to dissolve in combat or to a round of shooting to pretty much anything. You could possibly use the Wolves to screen them, but even then it's to small of a unit to have any real impact.

The main Issue that remains with this list is the unit of warriors. Lets assume that the unit actually gets into combat without loosing any casualties. In that case you have 20 Chaos Warriors just sitting there doing absolutely nothing except adding +2 to combat resolution. That is an extremely inefficient use of points. In a lot of cases you are going to be steadfast, but thats completely irrelevant anyway because this unit is never going to lose combat. It's going to absolutely annihilate anything it touches, but any player who allows it to touch anything of value or importance is playing badly.

Ya, I needed to look back and crunch so stuff.
Sorry for confusion it was late at night when I had my realization.

for Maurders yes it is 2 units of 10 1 unit has flails the other unit has LA, S,HW

ok sorry will adjust heros.

What would you suggest then I am going for a Spartan theme so it was mostly Heavy Infantry and then some light infantry.
Also should I do Tzeentch or Nurgle ?

Well Warriors are never a bad choice, but having them all in one unit is inefficient and really un-wieldy. You could use a large unit of Chosen with Archon that would act as your main block of elite Spartans and having them flanked by mid-sized units of warriors led by Exalted Hero's representing Leonidas' lieutenants. The Warshrines could take up positions between or behind these units and you could try and spam Eye of the Gods rolls.

If you are going for Hand Weapons and Shields on your Warriors then I'd go for Tzeentch to buff their parry save. Nurgle gives you a bit more choice, but Halberds+MoNurgle is pretty nasty. S5 and -1 to hit on top of their T4 and 4+ save is pretty hard to shift in combat.

Yes, I will do Tzeentch due to the shield wall.
If you don't mind could you show me a example of how you would do the list ?

thanks for all your help !
