Powerful Chaos Warrior

Dakkites,
I am aware I flood this page with my lists, however it seems every tournament I want to go to has a unique composition designed to annoy me and force me into leaving my favorite toys at home  . Ideally I wanted to take my list I posted in here earlier: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/608168.page , however apparently that's too much fun for this tournament.
So here are the comps, I am allowed a maximum of 5 of these choices:
- Death Magic
- Daemon Prince, (if flies, + 1) (If 1+ armor save +1 Character with 3+ ward, +1) therefore 3 total for all 3 points
- Eye of Tzeentch on a model with a 3+ ward
- Hell Cannon (2nd counts as 2) (therefore 2 units = 3 points)
- Skull Crushers (2nd counts as 2) (therefore 2 units = 3 points)
- Each core chariot after the second
- Throgg the Troll King
- Trolls if core unit (if over 10 models counts as 2)
So you guys are phenomenal at advise, make sure I stay within 5 for this list, so without further ado;
Scion's of the Seventh Realm
Lords
Ashur, The First Keeper;
- Daemon Prince, Mark of Slaanesh, Level 4 (Lore of Slaanesh), Chaos Armour, Daemonic Flight, Sword of Striking, Dragonbane Gem, Charmed Shield, Scaled Skin, Soul Feeder, Fiery Breath, Allure of Slaanesh, Chaos Familiar
Heroes
The Leachlord;
- Festus, Pestilent Poisions
The Rotting Rider;
- Exalted Hero, Mark of Nurgle, Battle Standard Bearer, Barded Daemonic Mount, Halberd, Shield, Talisman of Endurance, Other Trickers Shard
Core
Corrupter's Guard;
- Warriors of Chaos (23, 6 x 4), Mark of Nurgle, Halberds, Shields, Champion, Musicain, Standard w/ Banner of Swiftness
Filth Wagon;
- Chariot of Chaos, Mark of Nurgle
Special
Razor Riders;
- Choas Knights (8, 5 x 2), Mark of Nurgle, Ensorcelled Weapons, Musician, Banner w/ Razor Standard
Rare
The Disciples Khorne;
- Skullcrushers (3), Mark of Khorne, Ensorcelled Weapons, Musician, Standard
- Skullcrushers (3), Mark of Khorne, Lances, Musician, Standard w/ Banner of Eternal Flame
Should I drop the chariot for chaff? Slaanesh Lore is great for DP bombing the big 2 spells, frenzy on whoever needs it, should I change him to Nurgle?

First up, what's the pack? I quite like the warriors comp. It encourages stuff that's not a netlist. I.E. People have to think about their toys, rather than pushing chariots and skullcrushers forward.
Secondly, I think a fast cav list will do well under this. As most peole will probably go for the Nurgle prince(On lore of Nurgle), Throgg and his trolls, Or Crushers and chariots.
But that's just because I play a fast cav list and do well with it.
Your current list will do well, but the prince doesn't really buff the list. The reason people take a death prince is that death is such a good lore, it synergises with all lists. Slaanesh works with a fast cav list, as it allows you to dominate the movement phase that much better. I'd either switch him to Nurgle or shadow.
I'd probably drop the chariot. To me, Nurgle baby chariots aren't worth it. Khorne turns them into blenders, which is what they want to do. Nurgle is for grinding. They don't want to be in combat after the round they charge in. Also, Marauder horsemen aren't comped! Abuse that! All the horsemen!

@thedarkavenger I don't know what it is I just really want to use Slaanesh lore recently for some reason, I probally shouldn;t take it but yunno when you just get a bug for something? Death comp means I would need to change something in my list to get Death in. Nurgle is a good lore for buffs, same with shadow I suppose, I already have a level 2 Nurgle in Festus, so what lore do you think would be best for what I'm using?
Impact hits are nice on the chariot, seeing as the model is painted Nurgle, I'll drop it for Horsemen (5), Mark of Slaanesh, Light Armour, Flails, Throwing Axes, Musician? They're nice and mobile, but I guess you'll say I need 2 units?

I'd go Nurgle. Those warriors will love the buffs. Especially with Festus.
As for the horsemen, one unit can do, but two is best!

@thedarkavenger, I KNEW you would say 2 units ahaha!, I feel 1 unit would be wasted aswell so 2 is probally the way to go.
I had a thought at work today, what if I went Tzeentch for the DP? Its aggressive and I've already got Nurgle on Festus, but it means that I can deal with high toughness stuff? But Nurgle feel's good but do I really need like 6 spells of Nurgle? Would Shadow be good?

With Tzeentch, you'd be dropping out to metal anyway. And the buffs are pretty meh. And a prince is kind of a waste for final trans. Plus the 3+ ward is another comp point.
I like shadow, as it allows you to go movement shenanigans and control the movement phase. But it requires finesse.

My only comment is that as your list is constructed, you only have 4 of the 5 allowed, so why not make your BSB unkillable?
Hero, BSB, Daemonic Mount, MoT, Talisman of Preservation, Enchanted Shield, Halberd, Third Eye of Tzeentch
He won't need the Knights, so you can drop them to 5 and add a Gorebeast Chariot. Or alternatively, drop them by 3 and bring 3-4 units of warhounds or a unit of Marauder Horsemen for some chaff, which you lack completely.

Is it NWGT comp? looks very like the SCGT comp pack. If it is you really need to link the comp pack as having a higher score really makes a difference, yes with warriors its hard but think about a score of 2 will be double that of a zero giving you a good advantage. Automatically Appended Next Post: Chaos Lord,mark of tzeentch Great Weapon, Daemonic mount w barding, Armour of destiny, Dawnstone, other trickster shard, Scaled skin, soul feeder, third eye of tzeentch.
Sorceror of Slaanesh (slaanehs lore), lvl 2, chaos familar, Charmed shield, steed of slaanesh
sorcerer of nurgle (Death lore), dispel scroll,
Exalted hero, bsb, mark of tzeentch, Enchanted shield, tailsman of pres, disc of tzeentch
Chariot of nurgle
22 Chaos warriors, Nurgle, Halberds, shields, full command banner of swiftness
Hellstriders, hellscourges
Hellstriders, hellscourges
Hellstriders, hellscourges
6 Skullcrushers, Standard bearer, musician, enscorlled weapons,
Leaves 19pts for banner for crushers. This is a 5 on the comp score ,which leaves you middle of the road, yes your weak on magic but otherwise you have to take a weaker prince OR a lord level scorerer which will be dwellered or killed easy enough. I would consider trying to put crown of command on the nurgle sorcerer but not sure how to get it in unless you dropped the slaanesh wizard. Slaanesh wizard is only really useful if you get caco though as 20inch move is awesome for it.
The lord is a beast, 1+ RR with 3+ ward RR 1's (third eye can go on bsb easily enough), str 7 attacks chops through most things as well, weakness is not stubborn but dont send him into blocks!, he will do well at prince or other large targets.

If it is NWGT comp, then I dread to see the Dark Elf comp. The same goes for Ogres Comp
