I am under by 25 points and maybe more if I decide not to use the Nurgle icon on my termies I like using the Icon of Slaanesh just as much since my termies get to attack before most troops and elites. I could really use some input if you all have the time.

The concept is that my LR's and Defilers will be my shield and soak up most of the early turn las, lance, and rail gun shots, which will allow the Berzerkers and Winged lash prince to move in and be my spear, delivering the killing blow. Obviously tactics will be tailored to my opponent but basically if the spear fails I can still bludgeon them to death with my shield (defilers, abbadon, and terminators).

All comments questions and are greatly appreciated.

You lack troops, I'd try to go for 4 troops minimum, but if you feel comfortable with three...

I would go with 2x CCW on defilers, remove the temptation to shoot when you could fleet and charge or fire ordinance weapons.

No Obliterators? I thought those would be standard. I would have thought you would have been able to fit in at least one squad in a Ard Boyz sized list.

I know strange right, but well seeing the missions for 'Ard boys whit year I am thinking I am going to drop my DP and bring 2 oblits in his place as HQ's in one mission offer 5 KP a piece.

I like having the reaper auto cannons in the cases when my Defilers get immobilized and as it happen fairly frequently it is nice that it has a second weapon to fire should my template scatter off into the void (2 wounds are better than none).

Yes, but you can't fire it if the main weapon fires. The main weapon being Ord kind of sucks for it.

ya know I kinda spaced on that I forget that as my other armies have no ordnance, but it also gives me long ranged fire power should the battle cannon get knocked off and we all know should my opponent score a weapon destroyed it is going first.

If you lose the weapon you should be charging.

Your troops are dedicated combat monsters which means they are gonna get whittled down. You need some standard marines to hold the back field.

So I am getting a general consensus that I need more troops the only problem is what should I cut to get them if I cut the DP I can get a single CSM squad with a melta or something.

What needs to go to make room for another squad or so?
