I think you've got the tools that I could suggest - crimson armor, roar, khorne flail marauders to walk with Wulfrik. One thing I'd like to see changed up is the BSB:

Exalted - MoK, BSB, collar of khorne, shield = 180 (+10)

The lord should also have a shield (+10), and I'd suggest going with flails on your horsemen, so you have a fifth fighting unit if you need it (+0). With so few units you want everybody able to toss in if needed.

So that's +20 points, less your 9 free leaves 11 we need to find. I'd say drop 2 of Wulfrik's marauders for 14 points, as you're probably going to want to go 6x3 anyway and tear people's faces off, instead of worrying about protecting your static CR. Also it can be tough to fit 5x4 unit just 4" in on the table - in fact, 4 25mm bases is almost exactly 4", leaving no room for angling or whatever.

Other than those three changes, good stuff. Go forth and conquer!

I have given the lord a shield, just thought he would not need it as he is on a juggernaut and all.

For one, a 0+ save is so cool I'd say pay the 10 points to say he has it For two, as your uber-lord he'll probably be fighting many many things that are S5 or higher, meaning any attaks back on him will be @ -2 sv. A 0+ only drops to a 2+, so still only fails on a 1, while a 1+ goes to 3+ and fails an extra 1/6th of the time. Also the model comes with an awesome one.

On the BSB, yea as long as he doesn't take a magic banner he can take other stuff. Are you not taking a shield because the model doesn't have one? My own BSB has no shield and I don't want to give one, so I make do with a 4+ save, vs the 2+ (!) I'd have for just 5 points more ... If you're like me in this case, than I really really suggest finding 5 points to make the fury into the collar. Same MR(2) but with a 6+ ward tacked on to keep that banner man alive. This should change before you add the shield to the jugger, in fact, the BSB is far more vulnerable.
