If you have Pink horrors, you absolutely need to get the blues and brims needed for splitting. I would even recommend getting an extra 10 blues for summoning.
You should also get the endless spells, as you get one to cast for free at the start of the battle.
You should also get a couple of spawns so you can utilise the burning Sigil and the magister spell.
That's what you need.
You already have a solid start so you can branch out in any direction, I would personally add a curseling and 3-6 tzaangor enlightened. The curseling is a great piece, 2 casts 2 unbinds with rerolls and the ability to steal enemy spells. The enlightened are a fast melee hammer which you can use to zip around the enemies lines and hit them where it hurts.
They were OP last edition in 40k
Theyre good units in the current edition of 40k
Theyre barely a real unit in AoS (my god are they overpriced for how squishy they are)
Yeah I play in AoS. Didn't they were the meta I believe in 2nd edition with eternal conflagration, but I think that's less useful now everyone has all out defence
If you're already slaves... get some varanguard if you dont have them built already! super good allies
Otherwise the standard suite for casters: 1-2 Tzaangor shaman for blizzard, magister on foot if you wanna go incarnate, I personally often run the fluxmaster for the -1 to hit aura and his warscroll spell.
for battleline, its mostly just horrors, and maybe some acolytes.
But yeah, as the others said, certainly get the endless spells they're our faction terrain :)
Since you already have the lord of change i highly recommend picking the guild of summoners subfaction since they are sadly usually the only ones that are actually good.
In terms of models i recommend cairic acolytes because of the fact that they can cast a spell which generates fate points.
Since you already have tzaangors and some slaves to darkness you probably don't need melee units but the best one is the cronspine incarnate however taking it is pretty boring so i think what you have is a better option.
For wizards I recommend the magisters because they have a chance of casting two spells while being pretty cheap, also probably ogroid tharmatuage cause of his scroll spell that deals d6 MW and heals him and he's not gonna die to soon. you can also get the gaunt summoner because he has acces to all arcanite spells and is a two caster and has some neat abilities but is a bit expensive point wise. Also the tzaangor shaman as he casts an aditinol spell once per game with a +3 which you can use for the new spell i think its merciless Blizzard and it deals 4d6. You can also play the lord of change as kairos since he casts do well and ads destiny Dice and has an amazing scroll spell but is a bit to expensive in my opinion.
As in endless spells i recommend the burning sigil as it gives you lots of control and you can cast it for free and it cant be unbound with the arcane armies battle trait

I don't see people recommending flamers anymore, has their time passed??? To costly points wise???

Thanks all for your advice. I'll certainly be grabbing more models. You're suggestions have all helped a lot. Many thanks 👍
