Im open to your suggestions :O

You could.. if you make the grots small enough to fit into their raider (bulky). And take a second unit to make the formation legal. Or well just break the 6 into 2 x 3 and give the second unit a ride, then salt with aberration + weapon to taste or even leave them bare depending on what you face.

You didn't list it but it looks like your going with RSR detachment due to 4 FA choices. Yet your heavy on troops. This is a bad design IMO since your giving up objective secured and the reroll on strategic for just those 3 bikes. I'd commit to one or the other and make it worthwhile, i.e. max the FA choices or else drop something and go CAD. I'd suggest dropping one squad of warriors to get that second grot unit a raider or else drop the bike squad for the same purpose.

Talos I'm not a fan of. I've heard good things about dark artisan and corpsethief claw but I've never had much success with 6" slogging combat units. ymmv but I'd suggest getting more anti tank in there somewhere instead. Currently your turn 1 AT (and possibly t2) consists of the scourges 3 lances and 4 18" blasters. Now if thats sufficient where you play due to little to no mech then carry on but usually its not. Also consider that dark light is our primary means of dealing with wraithknights/GMCs.

I'd drop the SC on the razorwings if you're taking DL. If you're using the lances you won't be using the cannon.

Nice to see some Liquifier guns as well, i personally quite like them but they did take a hit on power.

You might even consider swapping out the ssyth for a medusae for some extra LD and shooty. Just a thought.
