I thought that with executioners you wanted larger units like 30 or so....

hellebron (A) <3 epic pro using WE core :) witches core, exe special, a unit of blackguard, cauldron, makes a verry f(r)ighting combat list but it will be not verry magic rich (considering bsb asf banner, cauldron and hellebron.... leaving space for just a lvl 2 cheap mage)

but here 2 cauldrons... thats scary too.... but those cold ones yould use some bsb here
8th edition Dark Elves w/d/l
2/4/3

still getting started, so don't mind that loses, they where sacrificed for the greater good xD

Try something like this minimaxing on the choices you have:

Hellebron
Death Hag:BSB, CoB
Death hag:CoB
Sorc lvl2 Metal:Dispel scroll,Ruby Ring(no point to give her ring of hotek unless you want to blow her up)

5 harpies
5 harpies
5 shades
5 shades:extra hand weapons

20 rxb warriors:musician
21 Witch elves:Standard bearer(Flaming banner),Musician,Hag,7x3 formation
20 Witch elves:Standard bearer(banner of murder),Musician,Hag(Hellebron goes here)7x3 formation
30 Executioner:standard bearer,musician,champion horde formation(10x3)

1 War Hydra

2500 points total

Those RBT aren't that good anyway, they die too easily to enemy warmachines and are a lot of points for what they offer. Swap them for more hunters and bump Executioners to 30 this way you got some more warmachie hunters and redirectors like 2 units of harpies and 2 units of shades and some more bodies to fill that hammer unit(Executioners hit hard but they hit last and die easily so you'll need numbers to make them work or the ASF banner but you don't have points for a ASF hag with 2CoB in there.

Hope it helped a bit.

None. There's no point to give a Hag a special banner unless you intend to put the hag inside the unit with ExE in that case you should use Banner of Hag Graef.

But since you are running duble CoB list there's no point to get a magic banner on her.
