Advice needed on army list. I want to make a balanced all-comers 2500pt list, so am hoping this works. I would have liked to get a war shrine in there somehow and maybe a giant (as I have both) but I figured the extra units of infantry were better to have. Lemme know what ya think. Advice welcome.

Classic case of too many points in characters. First off, dump the special characters. Second, if one is taking wizards then they should have a dispel scroll (or two). Go with 3 characters and no more. Level 4, level 2 and a fighty hero.

Drop your warriors down to 10 strong with halberds and shields. I don't like giving them banners, but it's a personal choice.

Use the extra points for more chaos knights. You can get two whole units with the savings I outlined.

Archoen on horse and on foot (either one can be used as a normal hero)
4 variants of sorcerers (one tzeenchy, one nurgle, two generic)
4x units of 15 warrior with full command
1 giant
1 dragon ogre shaggoth
1 warshrine
one unit of 10 knights (painted khorne) with full command (can be split in two)
two units of 5 marauder horse, musicians
15 hounds
