So i cant think of what to do with last 18 points. I can add 2 wracks or change around some weapon loadouts.

The grotesques load up in Tantalus with the wracks and HQs in ravagers. So only 6 drops with no use of stratagems. Maybe keep a unit of the Talos off table to drop on turn to kill what you want? or the Tantalus.

With access to Agents of Vect, Black Cornucopians, and An Esoteric kill delivered from afar (those are great names btw) I just dont know if would be able dish out enough damage?

Has anyone tried Dark Creed with a Tantalus? Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks

Seems good, maybe go for dual MS on the tacos instead of the twin liq, venom blade on the archon, ECW on the other heamie, and then use the other points for more wracks? Already pretty optimised so hard to come up with changes!

You mentioned your Wracks and HQ are loading up in the Ravagers but Ravagers don't have any transport capacity do they? I think you're thinking Raiders.

Thanks for the advice. The ravagers not being transports any longer changes all my plans.

Back to drawing board to try and fit the three obsessions together.

So i made some changes based on suggestions. Got up to 14CP with double battalion. And still some room.

So in the tantalus take the 7 grotesques, Urien Rakarth and an archon. The three units of wracks and kabs go in the raiders.

One unit of Talos are going melee with MS and the other as a sniper for after the tantalus gets blown up.

I have a few options as I am 66 points from 2K.
I wanted to keep the Warlord for Labyrinthe Cunning and a Haemonculus for the extra toughness. But I could easily take a venom to have for tansport and have everyone in transports.

I could also add blasters to the kabs and add dark lances to raiders? or adding some upgraded weapons to troops.

Looking for advice on the last points. and if any mistakes. thanks.
