Ok so I'm having trouble coming up with a Daemons list I like at lower point games, and I could use some suggestions.

In this list I feel like there are plenty of buffs and buffers, but maybe not enough tools running around to be buffed. Let me know what you think:

HQ:
Fatey: 300

Troops:
10x Pink Horrors: 90

11x Pink Horrors: 99

Heavy Support:
Daemon Prince: 355
MoT, ML#, 3+, Greater, Exalted (Grimoire)

Fast Attack:
16x Flesh Hounds: 256

Allied CSM

Be'Lakor: 350

Cultists: 50

Two force multipliers (Fate and Be'Lakor) fielded without enough force to multiply, you hit the nail on the head. I'd drop the CSM detachment entirely and grab a third Prince, Tzeentch or Slaaensh (latter to deal with enemy fliers grabbing Greater Reward for Lash) and take the Portalglyph as well, allowing for 2x11 Horrors to start with.

Then it's a choice of how much you like hounds vs screamers vs seekers vs a fourth prince.

Thanks for the input. I definitely like the Hounds over Screamers in this list as I really don't think screamers are that effective without at least 2 Heralds and I definitely don't have the points for that. I'd like to squeeze a unit of seekers in, I just don't have the models at the moment. As for the fourth prince, well I was just trying to run something that wasn't a complete flying circus, so the Hounds are there for a little variety.

New incarnation:

HQ
Fatey: 300

Troops
11x Pink Horrors: 99

11x Pink Horrors: 99

Fast Attack:
18x Hounds: 288

Heavy Support:
Daemon Prince: 355
MoT, ML3, 3+, Greater, Exalted (Grimoire)

Daemon Prince: 355
MoT, ML3, 3+, Greater, Exalted (Portalglyph)

Now the question is what tables do I roll with Daemon Princes? I guess it partly depends on what Fatey gets (i.e. I get lucky as hell and get invisibility with his one shot), but barring that scenario do i keep rolling Telepathy hoping for invis or do I go straight for Biomancy?
