I play a blades of khorne army, and one thing I notice is that even with all the chaos allies at my disposal, ranged is NOT something we have. As far as I can tell, the only way I can get something that is a ranged unit that isn't a skull cannon while keeping khorne alliegence is to take Marauder Horsemen. Are these guys alright as a ranged support? They certainly won't be my backbone, but they are a really fast unit that would be good for helping out across different parts of the map, and can escape getting bogged down pretty easily thanks to their ability to shoot and charge even after retreating.

They are 90 points for a unit of 5, and their save is pretty garbage but in your opinion do they add a good value to Khorne? Bare in mind they can also be buffed by all the Blades of Khorne heroes, so it's quite easy for them to get beefed up by being around the center of my army.

They are a good unit and I have seen lists build around them. but I do not see them helping out in bok to add a ranged attack. BoK can be fast enough without the need of ranged.

Really? Almost everything I have in BoK that isnt cavalry is rocking a 5-6 movement.
