Nice looking combo here...
drop the enemy unit's leadership by 3-5 with Night Lords effects,
then use Cacophanic Choir to deal some brutal mortal wound damage!
(2d6) - (target's leadership) = (mortal wounds)

who knew Slaanesh and the Boys in Blue would work so well together!

are the Night Lords affiliated with a major Chaos diety in the fluff?

They used to be affiliated with khorne but now they are undivided.

Also another slaanesh spell that can help; pile in and attack again wool work on warp talons since they are daemons

My Night Lords are a mix of Raptors and Havocs. The two best strategems have to be VOTLW, for reroll wounds, and In Midnight Clad to increase survivability.

Then we have a Slaaneshi power to shoot twice, or a Nurgle power for another -1 to enemy shooting.

Add prescience and you have a hard unit in the backfield laying out superior firepower.

I'm personally not too sure what I should equip mine with imo. what benefit would WT get with Slannesh and how many points would it cost?

I think a Slaanesh Herald would be nice to have in range of the WT,
+1 Str, and take Frenzy to inflict a beating in second round of HTH

Tzeench and Nurgle do have some nice buffs though!

Partially true. They actually have always been undivided and in fact most Night Lords detest worshiping the chaos gods openly and some will even turn down demonhood. That said you don't have to worship a chaos god in order to gain their favor and generally Khorne is the most popular among undivided legions since he is the war god and space marines are in the business of war.

NL were dedicated to Khorne a Lonng time ago. Of course that fluff is retconned.
