Doesn't appear you are using a CAD (which is a very specific detachment found in the main rulebook), but instead using the Raider detachment (which is a whole other type of detachment). The distinction is important because CAD troops have objective secured, while the DE ones do not. CADs can also take a fortification and LoW and the DE one cannot.

You need another troop to run the DE detachment (still requires 2 troops) so as is the list is illegal (ontop of the 3 points).

I don't know anything solid about the coven formations to comment on those. My only concern as of now would be for tournaments, as many limit the number of detachments total to 2.

To get legal I'd drop one of those scourges in order to get another venom unit. Frankly taking more then 3 units haywire scourges is a mistake (3 even may be a bit overkill) -- you will still face armies that have little to no vehicles and against those 360-480 points are wasted. It is why some folks are considering blasters over haywire at least for some of their scourge units.

First it's scourge not scrouge, sorry but that bugs. Anyway I like the basic shell you've got going on. I will say that I think the wrack formation will probably not pay off very often. DE give up FB very easily, and take it for that matter. I think the objective will usually have been scored before they arrive.

I would suggest losing the wracks for more warriors/scourges or something else altogether like incubi. Also I might be mistaken but I thought the grotesquerie formation only included 1 hq not 2 but I'm away from my books. Either way consider getting the syndriqs sump on the scissorhand for rampage. I'd also recommend aberrations for both units to give you options vs opposing ICs.

edit scourge Laughing

ya , the formation need 1 HQ , but coven need 2 HQ

Wracks are there for ossefactor ,and they arrived on turn 1 , isn't it ?
However I can change them to warriors/venom and 5x Scourges, which free me some points for the upgrades you mentioned , thanks!

There is a formal problem with the list, because you are mixing up detachments and formations

Formations are a specific type of detachment and so you can't put a formation inside a detachment

If you want to use the Coven detachment you have to fill him with single units like you normaly do with the detachments from the main rule book

In the case of your list, you should move the 2nd Homunculus in the Real space raiders detachment, get rid of the Coven detachment (and it's special rules) and field the 2 Coven formations alongside the Riders detachment.

Gamewise, you could of course deploy that 2nd Homunculus in one of the Grots's raiders if you like so

Or, if you put him in your list only because you were thinking you needed 2 HQ, get rid of him

Scourges are not relentless so will be snap shotting if they move with Dark Lances. If you really want a static unit in cover with dark lances you might as well use Trueborn as they are a bit cheaper. Otherwise give them straight up blasters (bit cheaper too).

trueborn only got 2 darklances , I would like to take them if they are 3 models minimal (as last edition) , or 4 heavy weapons for 5 models.

I am thinking of this :

Aegis defence line with quad-gun and 5 mandrake (cost exactly 160 points)

The realspace detachment does not have a fortification slot. So you'd have to lose some FA and switch the a CAD inorder to add the ADL.
