We fight mostly Chaos Marines (Nurgle themed) and soon Tau and Orks.

Having two Tervigons at 1000 is a step in the right direction for effectiveness, well chosen there. I must give a large disagreement to the use of a Lictor, though. He has no great mitigative defense, and yet can not assault on entry and is equally vulnerable post hit and run. I would sacrifice him for a Zoanthrope or Hive Guard.

I'm also not a huge fan of warriors. However if you are keen on using them despite their instant death potential (Nurgle Plagues love them their plasma / melta) I would suggest making them Shrikes or increase squad size and throw them into a Mycetic Spore. Either way you'll get more out of them.

So far, the Lictor has by far been the most underperforming unit. He's definately getting pitched.

Warriors have been so so. Probably should at least upgrade them with toxin sacs to keep the 4+ to wound, so that they can actually get use out of their bone swords.

I would suggest removing the Lictor and Dakkafex. Maybe the Genestealers, too. Ymgarls, Flyrants, and Biovores have been great for me. Trygon Primes as well.

The dakkafex cant shoot with 3 weapons so the bioplasma is a bit of a waste, aside from that maybe consider a flyrant so your tervigons could both be troops (with more gaunts of cours)

Lictor does need to go, warriors arent great but maybe cosider the deathspitter and/or maybe the TS and AG. Which should make them kill nurgle SM pretty effectively if they can reach them.

Trygons are good too, so are zoan if you can get some.
Genestealers are not great, there are better ways to spend your points. Ymgarl are better.
