Hey all! I haven't played Fantasy yet, but my gaming group does. We are going to be running a Path to Glory event in February....which I am super excited about. Well, I also got the chance to pick up an almost complete WoC army in a trade. I went for it, even though I already have a huge O&G army as well as Skaven. I think I am going to start my foray into Fantasy with this Warriors of Chaos army. I just need a bit of help with the Lords/Heroes choices.

I want to go magic heavy, as well as keep the Tzeentch theme. In the following image, that is all the models I have so far, though I can omit a unit of 12 warriors as they are not built yet. I also just realized I left out a unit of 5 hounds. I would like to focus on the Lords/Heroes choices for anything I add to the list, I don't really want to buy more models (ie Merauders) at this point, I will work with what I have.

My basic battle plan is the 2 Giants in the front, taking the brunt of any shooting that will come my way. Meanwhile the knights will charge down each flank. Warriors will march side by side to cover each others flanks, with the hounds (there are 2 units of 5) watching either flank or coming around in front of the warriors in the case that the giants fall down and go boom.

So, what do you guys suggest? I am now thinking I would like to take 1 mounted exalted hero, as this will be relevant to Path to Glory. All other choices, as well as kit, is up in the air..though I would like to lean more towards sorcerers.

I am looking forward to your feedback, I have been reading everything here in the past few days to build my list so far.

is that on a website?

Armyroster.com

Should a unit of knights even bother with command? I figure the Standard Bearer would be useless and removed it. Are the Champ and Musician worthwhile? Should I dump the Champ?

Champions are good for extra attacks, at 20 points i dont think they are worth it.
Whats the points limit for your characters?

I have used 1780 by dropping the Champions, and I am putting on a limit of 2250 as that's what our tournaments are. I am open to suggestions, like dropping a unit of warriors (thinking of doing that anyway) if that will help.

you cant drop a unit of warriors you wouldnt have enough core
grab a sorcerer lord and kit him out like you would an exalted, then grab a sorcerer. I think you can figure out which items make good combos
