Ah wych cults, we love them! At least I do :-)

I would bring those wych squads full strength and dump those night shields. And why the baron without hellions?

OK, so to capitalize, throw out one wych squad and raider and add some hellions too? Even if it were just a meat shield around him? Or would he fly with the beastmasters?

Drop NS on the Ravs at the very least. 1-2 Beast masters can go (along with 5 khymerea and/or 2 flocks) as it is now its going to be a big, slow, hard to maneuver blob. With those cuts start filling out the wych squads, get them all a shardnet(2 if you can max any squads) and more bodies. If you have to cut one squad to finish it then do so.

Yeah I just added Nightshields cause in shooting lists its a no brainer but I'll be trying to assault turn 2 with everything so they probably won't do too much good. I could get 8 more Wyches total if I dropped all the nightshields, bringing my squads up to 7 and two up to 8.
I wouldn't drop any Beasts, they have to look threatening (and they are threatening) elsewise people might not shoot them & shoot down my transports!
I usually run 12 skimmers in 1500+ pts so running with 9 feels like a gamble right from the beginning. So the Beasts will need that stealth hopefully they can soak a lot of shooting. If not, most people probably really don't want a full squad to hit their lines untouched.
I also usually have 27 darklights at 2k, running with 15 makes me feel a bit nervous but I do have a lot of Haywire.
I could drop the Baron for even more Wyches, but sense I'm not buying 6 Haemonculi he seems like the best compromise. Really don't want to get stuck with 3D6 run when my whole army is Wyches haha & it gives me two chances to get the whole army FNP right off the bat.
