Host
A unit with the Host special ability is possesed by a Greater Daemon.  At the start of its formation’s action, before the action test dice roll is made replace the unit with the Host special ability (which now counts as destroyed but doesn't cause a Blastmarker) with a Greater Daemon from the Daemon Pool.
Been looking at this as well
To keep with the 25 point mark up of lists, I would then cost the Greater daemon at ~50 points and find ways for the Host Character (Chaos Champion) to go back to 25 points. Should not be a hard work around, even if it means a new character with no Invulnerable and just the 'Host' special ability

Khorne and Slaanesh (both enjoy the savagenes/beauty of close combat): Give +1 in Engage action tests.
Tzeentch and Nurgle (both have great stamina/toughness): Gives +1 on Marshall action tests.
Chaos Glory: +1 on Rally rolls
I know this is a favourite of most people, however I do not see people playtesting it and working out the problems. The initial one I find (and yes, I do have a bias), is that Khornates should never fail to charge (other than being broken via overwatch). They give up so much (army-wise) to charge and their only base instinct in battle is to close with the enemy. A failed initiative roll should be a charge with the effects of the BM taking place.
Unsure about the others.
