So now I'm looking at a Tzeentch themed force (using the Azyr comp system). I'm going with a Lord on a Daemonic Mount, a Tzeentch Sorcerer Lord, six Chaos Knights and two units of ten Pink Horrors each. Finally I can add either three Screamers of Tzeentch or three Flamers of Tzeentch. Does anyone have any experience with either of these units in AoS and have any recommendations as which is the better choice?

Screamers are nice for hunting things down and as a fast distraction/skirmishing unit, which is nice.

Flamers are ranged and put out an unholy amount of damage. They are also fairly maneuverable, so you can do more damage for less risk/losses with them.

If you feel you are weak against monsters go screamer, otherwise id say flamers as a more general purpose unit

I would sign this contract but I already ate the potato

You won't really go wrong with either. However, I would add a note of caution - if you go Flamers, do not be tempted to add more later on. Used in number, Flamers are just awful for your opponent and they won't have a great deal of fun. I speak from experience...

Flamers! Great ranged attack with awesome amount of damage. I use them as heroes hunters.
