| Maximizing Kabalite unites and Ravagers. Put agonizers on all the Kabalite squads. Shoot and charge with everything every turn. It is surprisingly effective. It won't work with every matchup, but I was surprised how well it did.
Few people expect shooting squads to assault. And for 4 points, the power weapon really helps. | |

| If you're running Venoms, you might want to look into Trueborn so you can load them out with special weapon.
Also even though people love running Venoms, Raiders are still good if you can fit the points in. You're getting a good bit of durability for the speed and a Dark Lance for helping crack vehicles. | |

thanks The Cults are terrible so far this edition. I don't think that anyone will disagree that they are generally either overcosted, underpowered, or both. So yeah, not an opinion, you are objectively correct. | |

| Take a blaster and PGL and agniser on your venom kabies.
They can unleash a good bit of very mobile shooty at 12-18". Ravagers and RWJ attract the most enemy fire 1st turn so they can survive long enough to play aggressive as is your plan. | |

| I like cults. They have some gems. Wouldn't mind some point drops tho.
FAST and AGGRESSIVE without cult? Mercenaries! Incubi, Mandrakes, Scourges, add in a court (now that they are cheaper) for flare
If charging is what you want, definitely agonisers. Pretty sure the Sybarite hits just as hard as the Hekatrix | |

| Might want to take look into Incubi. They are really choppy can be mounted in venoms or raiders and the sculpts look really good.
Other options are Covens and Mandrakes. Mandrakes are the best they have ever been. Coven units aren't in the best place right now sadly but, they are typically a melee force with limited shooting (without kabal back up).
I'm assuming when you say you don't want to play cult that includes beastpacks and reaver jetbikes. Beastpacks are in an okay place. Not OP by any means but, not gutter tier. Reavers could be alright if they ever see a big drop in points cost. | |

| Dissies deal 2 damage each, incubi deal in single wounds. Havent checked the math yet but incbui may be more efficient vs 4+ Armour units like guardsmen, fire warriors etc. | |

Incubi should be, you have to get into combat and get punched in the face in your own turn as well. CC should always be slightly cheaper/better at what it does then shooting for each point. (Although enough special rules to get into combat can make it roughly even again). | |
