If the daemonic mount has barding (don't remember if it's mandatory or not) then the shield is superfluous on the bsb. Personally I'd put a great weapon on him if this is the case. Yes you'll waste his awesome I7 but you'll strike at S7 in combat, and your list is lacking anything S6 or higher, which may end up biting you.
What did you arm the knights with? You might want to consider lances on them.

Agree you need the ward you also want mark of slaanesh on the chariot with your remaining points if any. Chain panic hurts WoC. 7 knights + BSB vs 6 +BSB is about the same.

That's a great sculpt. Ive never actually tried a gamezone mini so can't comment on the quality. Certainly looks good in the picture.

I have some Gamezone Empire knights. They are good quality casts and nice sculpts. They are all metal and my horses required quite a bit of gap filling. It's comparable to the late metal days of GW.
Other options for the BSB on demonic mount: convert from one of the new Varanguard? or from the actual Lord on Daemonic Mount? or go crazy with some weird Reaper Bones thing as a mount and do the rider from a GW plastic chaos knight?

Yeah, you're going to have to convert if you want a bsb on daemonic mount. That model just doesn't exist. I will mention that the varanguard are great models for characters riding daemonic mounts. Convert one to be holding a standard and then convert (or just claim, as some of those weapons are massive) one to have a great weapon and I would say that you would have all your bases covered as far as characters on daemonic mounts. Here's what mine look like: Eventually I'll get around to painting the other two, but right now getting other armies up to 2000 points painted has been the priority.

The rider on the right with the massive ax, I would say that is a great weapon for sure. It is the size of an ogre torso!

Haha yes it is! I'm tempted when I get home to do a scale picture of that weapon and a normal human. I suspect that they will be pretty similar in size...

Hmm Tzeentch Doesn't really have a nice Daemonic Mount model does it? All the other gods are covered with nice Lord models which would be pretty easy to convert but I am not sure how well they would fit Tzeentch.
You could maybe do something funky with a Screamer?

The vanguards looks amazing and expensive Think ill try converting one of them to have a bs in his hand. Ill let everybody know in a couple of months when its their time to get painted/done. have atleast 2 month of WE to do first.

So I managed to get hold of an assembled and partly painted army. What do people think, how often do you roll a deamon prince or chaos spawn and want them? I have a deamon prince proxie (not really sure about the model) but no spawns.

Not many of our club use spawn, not sure why. Bluke loves his daemon Prince though. (Can't seem to tag him thoug).

I was also curious about rolles on the god table and rolls after you slay a character.
Is it so good that I should keep spawns anyway or dosn't matter?

It does matter, as technically you need to have a spawn model to place if you roll that result. So yes definitely keep them... even if you don't actually want that result. A spawn is better than nothing after all.
