I have 2 lords in mind for my warlord both of which I love and can't figure out which i want to use. I would very much appreciate peoples opinions.
First lord
using standard CSM book
Lord... mark of khorne, juggernaut, sigil of corruption, gift of mutation, axe of blind fury.
This lord is mean, i have play tested him alot, with daemon weapon rolls he has 8 - 13 s6 ap2 attacks on the charge, that's nuts in my opinion. I escort him with spawn so add a bunch of spawns attacks to his and you have a blender.

second lord
using Crimson Slaughter
lord.... Mark of Nurgle, Daemonheart, Slaughterers horn, bike, sigil of corruption, fist and claw.
essentialy he is T6, 2+/4+ with 6 s10 attacks on the charge, I will escort him with nurgle bikers and kit the champion out for melee. good luck taking that squad out before its in your face.

So... what's the rules question here?

My opinion? Ask a mid to move this to Tactics, as there really isn't a rules question.

my appologies, i was kinda spacing when i picked the forum

It's a trade between attacks and durability. If it's surviving well enough to deliver its attacks, option 1 is better. If it fails to connect with more than 1 enemy unit during the course of the game, option 2 becomes more interesting.

Have in mind that Jink will be nerfed in 7th, albeit for a melee unit it wouldn't be much of an issue (cover save or fire at full BS?).

I often take both the juggerlord (minus the gift of mutation) and a nurgle bike lord with the black mace. They both are very good but I find the nurgle lord edges out the juggerlord due to being harder to kill and being in a much tougher retinue (nurgle spawn vs. regular spawn).

It's fine to take two beatstick HQ's, but I'd personally favor a beatstick and a support unit. Swap one of those two lord out for huron or ahriman or a sorcerer, or something.

On your nurgle lord, take blight grenades. For the cost, defensive grenades for an entire unit is a steal.
