The Devilfish seem a bit unnecessary, drop them and boost your Fire Warrior numbers.

Yeah...

I feel as though the devilfish could either work, or completely ruin you, most likely ruin you.

I would also suggest getting rid of the stealth suits, they do better at lower points... but they are still iffy.

I would boost you troops... either kroot or fire warriors are fine.

I would also take off the shield drone from your commander because at these points, there shouldn't be anything to worry about that would require one, if you want extra wounds, gun drones are cheaper.

-stealth team and a devilfish nets you a squad of fireknives, which have always eaten face at 500 points when I've used them.

I think a cheaper commander could be better in 500 points. And a pair os crisis with twin-linked missile pods instead of the Stealth team may be better...
