Since my idea of beastmasters with PFP was shot down by the new faq, I decided to go a different route but keep the original goals in mind. Most players seem to be obsessed with incubi, wracks, and wyches in raiders zipping across the board to do their assaulting. This seems inherently weak to me as the raiders are cardboard coffins just waiting to bury these assault groups before they ever reach their intended target.

With this you arrange the raiders and ravagers behind the hellions and beastmasters in order to give them a 4+ cover save. In turn they provide leadership re-rolls to the entire army. Proper play will give the hellions cover saves while they move forward with the vehicles in tow. The list has 17 dark light weapons now which stick to the 100 points per dark light weapon 'rule'.

Looking for suggests, comments, complaints, and weaknesses from the community.

Edit: Updated List

Good luck getting an opponent to let you take a cover save on your raiders/ravagers from hellions. They have to be incredibly bunched up to even have a chance at covering 50%.
