So essentially my list is :

Guo ML3
Belakor

20 daemonettes
20 daemonettes

20 seekers(get invis)

Nurgle prince, ML3,armor wings, bale sword
Nurgle prince, ML3,armor wings, bale sword


I want to stay aggressive. Would it be better keeping the daemonettes as troops or using pink horrors and summoning the daemonettes? I think what makes this list work is pressure and target saturation.especially with the two princes both rolling on telepathy, 6 rolls plus Belakor should get me invisibility for two units

2 Minimum squads of 11 Pink Horrors would go a long way, possibly divide up your Daemonettes.

If your pink horrors get singled out because they are granting you more WCs (Which will be one of the first things any opponent should worry about) just summon more and constantly run the dying squads forward onto objectives.

Even better is the fact they can roll Possession, 2 extra chances at the start of the game to roll possession from them can really make things interesting for your opponent and yourself. Plus it opens up the possibility of recycling your Seekers if they get other summons (As inevitably some will die) granting you smaller groups of 5 that can roam elsewhere.

Life: An incomprehensible, endless circle of involuntary self-destruction.

The GUO is the worst option for bringing in a Greater Daemon... He's slow as dirt and has poo psychic lores to choose from compared to both the Kipper (Telepathy) and Doom Chicken (Divination)
Of those two options, the Kipper is the cheaper yet squishier option, but can bring in some reliable shooting with its Lash of Submission. The Turkey-Mage is definitely the costliest option, but can bring S8 melee attacks, and become nearly unkillable between a pair of Greater Gifts + Precognition.

As mentioned above, Pink Horrors are absolutely invaluable for adding in additional Warp Charges. 11 gets you 2WC's per unit, and with their Daemon of Tzeentch rule + Go to Ground, they can become annoyingly resilient to ranged attacks that don't ignore cover.

This unit could really, really use some Herald love... An Exalted Locus Herald on Steed w/Greater Aetherblade is a beast. Plus, she not only fully controls any and all Challenges, but she also provides what is essentially 'Hatred+' to her unit.

Where's the Portalglyph? Where's 'The Good Book'(tm)?

I think you're spending way too many pts on these guys honestly. Princes are okay, but they're still too expensive for what they ultimately bring to the table. The main daemonic flyers tend to stick with Fateweaver/Be'lakor/LoC and then cheaper Princes.
Tzheralds are the main sources of WC farming as they're not only dirt cheap for Lv3's, but they can also take Discs and thus become Jetbike type models. (or else just hide with some Horrors in the backfield.)

The Portalglyph on the other hand is yet another very handy tool for farming more WC's, while the Grimoire is self explanatory!
