Heamonculus are each going with a squad of warriors, poping WWP then fireing at nearist priority. Blaster born going for the tanks. Talos and beast's come in for the kill.

Question

I would cut a warrior from each unit to switch the talos from LG to Add CCW. I would also cut the GT to get those Stingers to TLHL

All these units have excess bodies that I'd honestly consider dropping 3 from each squad I'd also consider adding at least one shock prow and enhanced aether sails to one raider (the one that aint gonna have a haemies in it) keep it safe if you can and use it for last turn objective grabs YMMV

Naughty units just remember beasts can't assault on upper floors, if your strapped for points you could also drop one khymera from each squad at a pinch (seeing as your coming in from a webway you can get away with slightly less protection).

I'm with the baron on these I don't think you need the liquifiers (a canny player will remove models to deny you the charge) but you do need more anti-tank so either tl heat lance or haywire blasters would be cool.

My comments in red.

Nice list you may have problems in objective games as 2 of your troop units are essentially suicide wwp delivery units (never write plans in stone consider using a trueborn squad as a portal squad move 12 disembark and mess up a tank at the same time as dropping the portal) but tabling your opponent is also a viable DE tactic.

with these changes i have multiple way of Bursting through and stealing objectives or if need be i can use my raiders as missiles. i played a few games and running troops of the board with my raider was pretty entertaining and effective. only trouble i'm seeing is haveing so few numbers in my squads /shrug.

Haemies should never see combat, lose the VBs

We ride around in paper airplanes. Making them more expensive is a bad idea. If your dead set on the sails and prow (both of which I personally find totally useless) then drop either the NS or FF from the warrior raiders. both is overkill and a waste

Same for the Venoms. They don't need the NS.

With all the points you've saved you can get more bodies in your warrior squads. As is they are just too small for objective based games.

eh adding a few more ppl is not going to do much for me i like making it as difficult as possible for my opponent to destroy my vehicles. i love it when i keep making those 5+ and they have to waste another volley at my transport. even funnier when there not even in range becaue of the night shields. for the VB well i think my lord deserves to at least kill something in CC if it ever happens lol Wink
