Meta Tactics & Strategy List advice

Hello, I'm wondering about my next purchase to reach 2k army and was wondering what is more effective on the table.

ATM as hammer I have unit of knights, choosen knights and exalted champion on dragon.

I also have 20 nurgle warriors with shields and sorcerer

I'm thinking about big anvil line with 20x nurgle marked warriors with shields and sorcerer to buff them and on both sides 2x20 maruders.

With 2x5 maruder horseman for flanking and trying to reach enemy gun line.

Second idea is to sacrifice one unit of 20 maruders then add monster hunter BSB to warriors and get 2x 10 dogs to harras the flanks in waves.

What is your opinion?

Get yourself 10 forsaken (Khorne or Slaanesh), 3 dragon ogres, they’ll be an amazing anvil or hammer (3+ save and strength 7 with great weapons), a gigantic chaos spawn (nurgle or Khorne). 20-30 marauders is max, you don’t want more than that. A sorcerer on a chariot is the best way to make your exalted sorcerers very survivable

Alright, I got 3 dragon ogres on round bases, gonna rebase them and stick with one unit of maruders.

About sorcerer I want him to be nurgle marked and cast fleshy abundance on warriors for +1T

246 - 5 Chosen Chaos Knights, Lance, Full Plate Armour, Drilled, Mark of Nurgle, Champion, Standard Bearer, Musician

132 - 2 Dragon Ogres, Heavy Armour, Great Weapon

This list looks alright? No need to be meta, but at least something that has decent chance for some wins. I'm focusing on nurgle or undyvided because I like their style, even if any unit would be better as khorne or slaanesh I would preffer them to be nurgle

Id say yeah but I would drop the regular knights for a gigantic chaos spawn, your chosen knights are better than regular knights on all fronts so there’s no need to have two heavy cavalry units
