I figured I'd post this list up and see what people think. Its a VERY in your face list and has no magic phase at all.

The idea is to have a couple of small blocks and several fast moving units, this means I can be in combat with half my army by turn 2, and hopefully eliminating anymore incoming missile fire or magic.

Lords/Heroes (620pts)
Herald of Slaanesh
Upgrades:
Steed of Slaanesh
Daemonic Gifts:
Etherblade
Total = 165pts

Herald of Khorne BSB
Upgrades:
Juggernaught 50pts
Daemonic Gifts:
Great Icon of Despair
Armour of Khorne
Total = 265pts

Herald of Khorne
Upgrades:
Juggernaught
Daemonic Gifts:
Armour of Khorne
Firestorm Blade
Total = 190pts

12 x Daemonettes w/ Champion 156pts

5 x Furies 60pts

Its usually best to go 6 wide on bletters for 2 reasons in my opinion:

1. More attacks means less attacks back hopefully.
2. If you are playing High Elves your T3 Bletters wont have many attacks back.

Otherwise looks like a fun in your face list.

Im thinking the -2 Ld banner isnt as useful for the points as I'd like. I really wanted it there so that opponents would fail fear tests (Being MSU means I wont likely outnumber) and will therefore hit on 6's. However given that the Herald will still be out of the 12" range when I start looking at charging on turn 2 its usefulness is diminished (except against large units or stubborn units). I'm thinking the +d3 Combat res banner will be a more effectient use of points.

I agree, the D3 Combat rez banner saves your life alot. I run a mostly khorne army so run with banner of sundering because I need all the magic assistance i can get, but when the time comes that I can diversify im taking the D3 combat banner as well.
