I like it, but instead of your high sorceress, I would go for the annointed, as you only just decided to play cult of slannesh, and I dont think anything fits in more than an annointed... just a tip ^_^

I agree with Wilko. The best thing about this list is that you have given the enemy 3 huge targets: the Chaos Warriors, the devoted and the Cold One Kinghts. This means that if you are facing a shooty army then you will have at least 1 of your main units intact by the time you get into combat by offering the enemy a variety of targets.
With your DE warrior units, i would make the spearmen up to 20 and drop the mark of slannesh and 3 warriors from the Xbowmen.
This would free up some points to make both your sorceress' level 2.
Swap the High Sorceress with a tooled up annointed on Cold one, If you can give him some spells, if not dont.

i would swap the 15 d.e warriors for some dark riders.I also would swap the high sorceress for a druchii anointed. You don't need all those chaos warriors so reduce them to 12 and get a small unit of crossbowmen.I like the magic power and the cok's though! :rolleyes:

basically, the list is what i am going to be getting. I am trading my space marines for most of the de stuff up there, and my other friend who doesn't play ne more is going to give me the chaos stuff. I will switch the high sorceress for the anointed though.

ya, you can really throw off your opponent with that lovely T4 elf. And he has some pretty nasty combos to boot!
*thinks about quickening blood and GoP (Great Weapons are good here too)*
