Hello all,
I'm looking to get started again with WFB and have dug out my old chaos.
I've created a small army list with the models I have, looking for a fun and decent list to play with.
Exalted hero, horse, biting blade, shield [139] Sorcerer, enchanted shield, lore of fire [115]
Chariot [110] Warhounds 5 [30] Warriors 14, shields, full command, banner of swiftness [255] Marauder horsemen 5, javalins, shields, full command [110] Knight 5, lances, full command [240]
999pts total.
I have ~14 nurgle warriors and a nurgle sorcerer left. Wil be facing empire, wood elves, lizardmen and dark elves. (All casual players)
What do you think?

Off the top of my head, it looks like a reasonably solid list, with a few suggestions.
I would drop the Full command from the marauder horsemen, only keeping the musician for the feigned flight benefit. the champ and banner are not worth much, and would free up some points.
I have always been a bigger fan of the ensorcelled blades over lances, due to their power in the second round of melee, but at this points level lances might be better for the charge.
I am also not quite sure about the banner of swiftness, but I guess it will help the warriors keep pace with the rest of the list, so it looks fine.
Welcome back to 8th, may your dice roll sixes and your enemies miscast regularly!

agree, solid list. You could try and squeeze in Lv2 for the sorceror by dropping the marauder horse command as mentioned and the banner of swiftness. But, you'll do fine either way. Have fun!

I like it. There’s a bit of everything in the list which should make it both fun to use and to play against

Thanks all for the input.
Yeah I can drop the full command on the horsemen. I usally value wysiwyg but I learned quickly that that is not so much in fantasy.
I will follow the advise and drop the command and banner for lvl2 upgrade:
Exalted hero, horse, biting blade, shield [139] Sorcerer, lvl2 enchanted shield, lore of fire [150]
Chariot [110] Warhounds 5 [30] Warriors 14, shields, full command [240] Marauder horsemen 5, javalins, shields, musician [90] Knight 5, lances, full command [240]
999pts total.
Giving me more magic power, which will be handy against lizardmen and elves.

This looks like the move, those knights will hit like a ton of bricks, and at 1000 points the warriors will be a decent anvil. Let us know how your games with it go!
