Now I know your asking why Mandrakes but they serve an important purpose, infiltration occurs before scout moves and by the rules a scout move cannot come within 12" of an enemy model. This little fact and a 45pt unit can put a big hole in some of the more common dirty tricks (vendetta/valk/Dreadknight 1st turn charge as well as baal pred flamings). If your opponent has no scouting units you can outflank them and use them to distract your opponent.

Is the haemonculus going with the mandrakes? Is so up the unit size a bit.

No if I put him with the mandrakes they can't infiltrate or outflank which defeats the purpose I have in mind for them. Normally I'd put the haemonculus with the wyches as FNP makes them scarier however if I roll a 6 for drugs then he'd likely go with a squad of trueborn to give them a little more longevity.

Made me check it but you roll for drugs before deployment.
