I plan to outflank with the stealer broods, and deep strike with the raveners and lictors. I know its alot of troops in reserves initially but I'm hoping the lictors granting the reserves rerolls will get my guys rolling up flanks or the raveners hitting pesky vehicals and stationary units in anyones depkoyment zones. I'm honestly iffy on the gunfex but I feel I ned a little more shooting. I'd drop him for another 18 hormies but then I think my list would be extremely one dimensional.

Anyhow any help is welcome!

is scouting stealers also in the reserve due to the new rule?

Not new when they are with a broodlord they can infiltrate. Also just a thought you may really want to change your winged tyrant to a 2x scything talons winged tyrant fo better anti tank in stead of the T/L devourers. Other then that the list looks pretty solid you will have a good troop representation on the board for point cature and contesting.

Sorry but I think your math is wrong on the broodlord and retinue...

It should be 153, not 169...

Changed retinue to 6 for 169.

Scouting stealers in reserves for outflank. One of the new rules. I'll have 4 units in reserves if the deep strike rule isn't in play. Broodlord + 2 Stealers Outflanking and the 2 Lictors. If the rule is in play then 6 units will be in reserves.
