I have decided to up the ante from 1500pts to an 1850pt list.
I never really wanted to bump it up, but since no one at my LGS plays anything under an 1850 it is hard to get a game going.

This is my current list:
2x1 Walking HT w/ Dakka’s
2x3 Guards
3x1 Dakka Fexe’s
2x6 Plain GS
3x1 Sniper Fexe’s non-RC
Total = 1437

Synopsis:
It has done me very well and has slaughtered some very mean looking lists.

Expansion Ideas:
I have seen some 1850 Zilla list's throw in 36 GS’s w/ EC or tons of Gaunt’s and use's thropies as gaunt herders.
I like both expansions, but I am leaning towards the GS’s since it is more economical and I do not have to paint as much.

After some figuring this is what I have come up with.
2x1 Walking HT’s w/ Dakka’s
2x2 Guard’s
3x1 Dakka Fexe’s
5x6 GS’s w/ EC
3x1 Sniper Fexe’s w/ RC
Total = 1850

Synopsis:
I wish I could get all 6 GS squads and finish maxing out my Guards :[ ,but it seems pretty close to my original list :] .

I am sure there are tons of ways to skin this cat, so if any of you hive fleet commanders have any thoughts/ or suggestions to make it more effective I would be much obliged.

Bad news: your list is 99% cookie-cutter.

Good news: your list is 99% cookie-cutter.

There's no doubt that it works. The only somewhat unconventional thing is not having a Flyrant, but dual walking HTs work too. Oh, and a lot of people say the EC can be dropped in such a list, since you can hide the stealers behind an MC wall.

Really, what feedback do you need? It's tried and tested.

I perfer a mix of gaunts and stealers, but you need more synapse for that (3x zoanthropes as opposed to 1 of the gunfexes).

Not sure if the OP would need more synapse, actually. Most people field one of their HTs flying, so one will usually be out of synapse range. Spec.Ops has two walking with guard instead. I think that's sufficient to cover a few broods.
