1250 - Alliance of Agony

I play pretty regularly with a few mates on a 4x4 board. So we stick to 1250 points. I know its not a very common points size but the process of settling on a list is still similar

I've played the list in various incarnations and now I'm at the stage which I'm happy with the unit selection. Cuts have already been made to units. I took the x2 blasters and grav-talons off the Reavers so I put the points towards a second Raider. I figured you realistically only get 1 or 2 turns shooting with blasters on the Reavers, and the grav-talons are nice touch but I needed to save the points on them. The function of Red Grief Reavers is to get in there turn 1 and tie stuff up that I don't want shooting at me. The enemy has to deal with them.

I had been spending 3CP on Prizes From The Dark City to give the Haemonculus the Helm of Spite. There are usually Psykers in my games so I figured this was a good choice but I've been having mixed results with this Artefact. It sounds great and I like that it allows me to exert some influence in the psychic phase but it costs 2CP and here is the catch: 1) the enemy has to successfully cast a power 2) the pass roll for the psychic test needs to be low (6 to to have a decent chance of you then rolling a higher result 3) the variable damage means you might only do 1 mortal wound. Does anyone think this artefact is worth the 2 CP? Am I being silly for not picking it up in a bid to weaken enemy psykers and possibly negate some warp powers?

The last few weeks I have been tweaking the wargear selections, shaving off points in a bid to further squeeze the most out of the points limit. I was wondering if I went overboard with the cuts? do I have enough CP? and what people think in general about this list.
