Ok, here is my first Army list. Feedback and criticism are both welcomed and encouraged- I don't have thin skin. If I messed up somewhere, tell me!

HQ
Daemon Prince (275)
Black Mace, DoS, Power Armor, Wings, Combat Familiar

Chaos Lord (132)
MoS, Terminator Armor

Sorceror (135)
Sigil of Corruption, Two extra levels of Mastery

Troops
Cultists (50)

Cultists (50)

Noise Marines (267)
5 extra Noise Marines, 9 Sonic Blasters, 1 Blastmaster, Icon of Excess

Fast Attack
Warp Talons (340)
5 extra Warp Talons, MoS

Elites
Chaos Terminators (372)
7 extra terminators, 2 reaper autocannons, 2 combiflamers

Transports
Chaos Rhino (52)
Havoc Launcher, Dozer Blade

Heavy Support
Forgefiend (175)

Tactics
The Noise Marines stick with the Rhino, using Blastmaster and Havoc Launcher until they move within range.

Daemon Prince stays with warp claws and attempts to get within range ASAP to target enemy HQs.

Chaos terms and Chaos Lord move towards objective, use reaper autocannons to protect themselves as they move forward.

Sorceror stays with cultists as they move towards objectives.

Forgefiend stays at extreme range towards center of map to provide fire support to as many units as possible.

No MoS on sorc? There is a spell that has synergy with noise marines Iirc.

Combat familiar? Worried he won't kill stuff haha.

I would get some chainfists in the terminators.

You are mainly using units that I don't, so not much else to say.
Wait - 3 hqs?? 2 is your limit

Suggest splitting Prince out into daemon allied detachment if you want to use it.

Definitely swap the combat familiar on the prince for a spell familiar. Sorcerer should get one too. Spell familiars are nearly the best upgrade in the whole Chaos-Codex . Best would be to give the prince mastery levels as well and roll on biomancy.

The Chaos Lord so far doesn't really have a use without relic and is illegal as Captyn Bob pointed out. You could simply leave him out, especially since you filled your troop choices with cultists already.
10 warp talons and 10 termis are pretty overpriced choices but if that's what you have go with it. I should mention that if you have 10 warp talons already you might find additional 5 raptors to make the raptor talon formation which improves their use dramatically.
Also, with 9/10 termis you could make the terminator annihilation force (another formation) which is also very good and would be a good use for your lord. Equip him with burning brand of scalathrax and have fun when you fire that flamer twice when he arrives. You won't be able to use reaper autocannons then, but they are far too expensive anyway (25pts... that's 15 points only to make the weapon twin-linked...)
I'm not familiar with noise marines but I'm not sure if you really need sonic blasters on the whole squad you could keep it a bit cheaper and keep some bolters as meatshields.

You have most of the models for a chaos warband already. Take it as a black crusade detachment. Do that and you will get a decent buff.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
If you want to take a slaanesh Demon Prince. You most definitely want to make it ML3 and give it 2 greater rewards and make sure you use one of those to take the Lash. If you roll iron arm on biomancy you will have a 12" S9 assault 2d6 vehicle popper.

Agree with the above about the Demon prince.

I would do something more like

Lord, MoS, bike, lightning claw power fist, sigil

Socerer, MoS, bike, mastery 3, spell familiar

2 x 10 noise marines, icon of excess, 2 blastmasters, 7 sonic blasters

10 bikes, icon of excess, 2 melta

2 x helldrake

3 x maulerfiend

Fortification - skyshield

This is just shy of 2k, you can drop a helldrake to get to 1850. Set the two squads of noise marines on the skyshield and start putting out the ignores cover hurt. Your sorcer kinda need invis and symphony of pain. Your lord goes around murdering people. Your maulerfiends put early pressure.
