Some of the more obvious stuff: Swap the GW for a Lance on the master, give the banner of murder to the CoK, and the ASF banner to the Black Guard (and I'm unsure of how your running them, but 7x2 is probably better than 5x3 due to their larger number of attacks and the newly added ASF). Shooting might pose a problem to your black guard (I've found that a unit of that size tends to get every gun on the field turned at it, so perhaps a harpy screen is in order?
I want what I paid for...immediately, and for the forseeable future.

I don't know if the sacrifical dagger would be good for the sorceress if she's on a steed. I'm guessing you'd put her with the dark riders, but imo, they're too valuable for being used as power dice fodder. You could also consider shields for your crossbowmen and spearmen if you haven't already.
I use the ASF banner with my executioner unit in 4,000pts (which i almost have collected but still assembling and painting) my Executioner unit has 15 of the big sword blokes, led by Tullaris and accompanied by a death hag with ROK, WB and ASF Banner.
So Strength 6 always strike first, killing blow,fear, a bucketload of attacks from the hag, and the possiblity of an assassin. I think they'll attract a lot of fire power.

I'd drop a couple of BG down to 12 to add 5 Harpies to act as a missile screen. Your xbow warriors could do with shields (better AS in CC) and if your sorc runs with the warriors the dagger is okay, but you should get a lordling to issue and accept challenges. If she runs with the DRs drop the dagger, you don't want to sac one of these guys.
The ASF Banner is indeed better on the BG. The Warbanner is a lot better for the CoKs, since it adds +1 CR every roung and not just once.

Yea, +1S and always strike last, even with armor piercing, is not a good trade for +2S, since that provides the same level of armor penetration but allows you to wound more easily. And a mundane lance is just 4pts (or you could go with the crimson death which gives you a permanent S6 for 10pts more than the AP GW).
Oh and you probably don't need the pendant... a mundane armor save of 1+ is probably plenty at this pts level, but if you worried about losing him stick to the pendant, swap to a mundane lance, and throw a null talisman on to him.

yeah, i actually planned to run them with the warriors...
but i didn't take into consideration the thing with challanges (thanks)

i actually thought that with the master and +D3 for combat resolution (if they attack) AND causing fear, the CoKs should be able to run over about everything, no?
Never forget a reaper bolt thrower if you leave for battle!
