I need help rounding off my 1750point list (i know its 1753, i normally don't run the jump pack lord with a fist) to 2000 points, because I'm not sure what to add, this list has felt mega competitive at 1750 but im looking at going to some 2000point tournaments.

Now i think everything in this list is very meta and straight forward, slaanesh for double shooting oblites, cultists for shield, sorcers and lord to buff where needed. I think i run one thing thats slightly different and thats a 1k sons vanguard, this is because the hellbrutes can still use fire frenzy, but the exalted sorc is basically a lord and sorc rolled into one, allowing them to reroll 1s and giving them supportive buffs, or using 24inch range smite, he also lets me take the third eye for extra strat points.

A couple of units i already have that might go in, are a hellforged siccaran at 220points (lascanons), or a squard of khorne bezerkers.

Anyone have any good suggestions? Dont mind trimming some points to fit something really good in.

That's a pretty competitive list already.

If it was me, I would consider giving the Sorcerers Jump Packs instead of Terminator armor. They are going to need to get around and will likely be standing behind other troops.

To take this to 2000 points, I would be looking at some unorthodox options. A Forgeworld Decimator with Soulburner Petards would be a nice aggressive option to complement the rest of what you have. A laspred would add some additional long-range firepower. A pair of Blood Slaughters would be nice distraction units.

But... given the number of HQs, what about summoning? 250 points in a summoning pool means a couple squads of Bloodletters or Horrors could join your forces without having to decide if you want range or assault beforehand.

I like the decimator option, i would prefer taking my hellforged sicarran over a laspred just because i have the model already haha, summoning is interesting.
