tell me what you think

You've got a very expensive HQ that has lots of toys and not so much firepower.

If you face off against (for instance) a squad of terminators who just dropped infront of your broadside, and nailing him... who's left to X out the termies?

Crisis suits are your best answer with lots of plasma guns. A regular squad of them (costing about 200pts for 3 with plasma and missle launchers) and a marker light or two helping their BS, scratches out those pesky 2+ guys with frightening efficiency.

Its the same story against godzilla nids, you need effective ways to poking out those 3+ and 2+ carnifexes and the tyrants, I don't see enough answers in your list.

To be honest thats why I rarely if ever run stealth suits, they take away valueable slots that could be filled with plasma rifles. Plus with missle pods, you got decent firepower against eldar skimmers.

at 1750, I'll run a fire knife shas'o, and 2 3 man crisis teams also fireknife configuration. I used to run 9 crisis suits at 1500pts, its devastating to your opponent, unless they play IG :p

I'll second the motion to drop a stealth team. In its place I'd use 3crisis suits with plasma/fusion/multi tracker and deep strike them.use your pathfinder devilfish markerbecon to help with any bad scattering. Ultimatly you want the pathfinders to get 2 markerlights on a squad of terminators or marines and then strike the suits on that squad for rapid fire. End result is 9 hits that wound on 2+ and hit on 2+.that almost guarantees wiping out a terminator or marine squad. Plus you'll make the points back really fast.
