10 CP

One Pink Horror squad deep strikes together with a Changecaster and the Daemon Prince, while the other pink horror squad advances up together with the other changecaster and exalted flamers.

Brimstone horrors are solely for objective grabbing and the Blue horror squad stands infront of the Pink Horror squad that advances up the field (only have 30 brimstone horrors so i have to use some blues).

Lord of Change might deep strike or not depending if he can assault any big target first round, otherwise he advances up field as normal.

Not sure if talons are the best choice on the Daemon Prince, or if i should use the axe instead.

Not sure where you think you can deep strike more than one unit. The stratagem allows you to deep strike one. And because you can only use a stratagem once per phase (ie deployment) cannot be repeated. Other than that the list looks good. And yes 2 talons are definitely the way to go.

It happens before the game starts and thus not in a turn. This exact strategem works for almost every other codex and is FAQed to work

yeah unless the stratagem says otherwise, any pre game stratagem can be used more than once.

As for the list i would drop the pink horor squads down to 20 each so that way you can deep strike for 1 point each or raise them up to 30 to make em worth 2 cp.

The daemonic icons in my opinion on horrors really aren't worth it at all. The other untis are melee and get lots of models killed and thus get to roll more morale test to try to get more models back, and it's very hard for the banner to be worth it. i'd only take the banner at 30 horrors. I think the best thing to do is drop the banners and the 5 extra pinks in each unit, and i then i think you could make a third 20 man pink horror squad. while auspex can can drop 1 squad below 20 the other two will get to shoot with impunity.
